: ''For the liturgical service, see All-night vigil'' The ''All-Night Vigil'' (Pre-reform Russian: ''Всенощное бдѣніе'', ''Vsénoshchnoye bdéniye''; Modern Russian: ''Всенощное бдение'') is an a cappella choral composition by Sergei Rachmaninoff, his Op. 37, written and premiered in 1915. The piece consists of settings of texts taken from the Russian Orthodox ''All-night vigil'' ceremony. It has been praised as Rachmaninoff's finest achievement〔Francis Maes, tr. Arnold J. Pomerans, Erica Pomerans, ''A History of Russian Music: From Kamarinskaya to Babi Yar'', University of California Press, 2002, (p. 206 )〕 and "the greatest musical achievement of the Russian Orthodox Church".〔(Rachmaninov's All Night Vigil: Vespers )〕 It was one of Rachmaninoff's two favorite compositions〔 along with ''The Bells'', and the composer requested that one of its movements (the fifth) be sung at his funeral.〔Sergei Bertensson, Jay Leyda, Sophia Satina, ''Sergei Rachmaninoff: A Lifetime in Music'', Indiana University Press, 2001, (p. 191 )〕 Note: The title of the work is often translated as simply ''Vespers'', which is both literally and conceptually incorrect as applied to the entire work; only the first six of its fifteen movements set texts from the Russian Orthodox canonical hour of Vespers. ==History==
