Episode Synopsis "Parastas-Small Vespers"

This Small Vespers service is part of the Parastas/Panakhida service for the departed.  I like to use it the evening before services because of the wonderful themes, the familiar melodies, and the fact that (unlike many panakhidas) very little of it is repeated in the funeral service.  I recorded this version to help my cantors learn the service.
