Historic Recordings of Fr. Schmemann, Fr. Meyendorff, Sophie Koulomzin – Now Available from SVOTS
SVOTS– 25/7/19
“So many brilliant and renowned theologians and teachers have graced the campus of Saint Vladimir’s Orthodox Theological Seminary [SVOTS] over its 80-year history,” said Subdeacon Alexander Hatcher, SVOTS Director of Institutional and Advancement.
“We are so pleased that now you can literally hear their voices in lectures and talks that had been in danger of being lost or forgotten.” Hundreds of old analog recordings of Father Alexander Schmemann, Father John Meyendorff, Father Thomas Hopko, Metropolitan Kallistos Ware, Sophie Koulomzin, Jaroslav Pelikan, and many, many others are now available—for the first time—in the digital, online format you can listen to anywhere, anytime for free.” Cosponsored by SVOTS with assistance from the Virginia H. Farah Foundation, the recordings may be accessed by creating a free account (digi.svots.edu).
The quality of some recordings preserved on this site is not ideal due to the condition of source tapes as well as conditions and equipment used at the time of those recordings. “As Orthodox Christianity is timeless, so too is the wisdom and insight of its saints and teachers, continued Subdeacon Alexander. “No matter what year it is or how long ago the digi.svots website was launched, what’s not to get excited about knowing that these precious recordings are available for the next generation and beyond?”
The nature of certain chronicles protected on this site isn’t perfect because of the state of source tapes just as conditions and hardware utilized at the season of those accounts.
