Byzantine is said to be the rite that, derived from liturgical customs already attested in Antioch in the 4th century, developed in Constantinople (Byzantium), under the dual influence of the imperial basilicas and monasteries, until it appeared in the 9th century substantially the same as the present rite. Byzantine Slavonic is the rite in use in the Russian Patriarchal Church. The same name can also be given to the rite of the Ukrainian Catholics (Ruthenian), which, however, has particular variants. The Liturgy of St John Chrysostom is the customary form of the Mass (called in the East “Liturgy“) attributed to this saint. There is another formulary, identical in outline but with longer priestly prayers, attributed to St Basil, used about ten times a year. The official date of the baptism of Rus' is 988: along with Christianity, Byzantine missionaries brought liturgical singing to Russia. Two centuries later, there was already an autonomous liturgical chant, also monodic, which was a modification of Byzantine chant and was enriched over the centuries, even developing its own system of musical notation. This form reached its peak under Ivan the Terrible, who appreciated and collected famous chants and singers and was himself a composer. In the second half of the 17th century, many elements of western culture, including multi-voice music, spread strongly in Russia: it quickly spread to the Church and almost completely suffocated native liturgical singing, which was only preserved in a few monasteries. With the 19th century, Russian national consciousness regained strength in all fields of culture. Valuable musicologists studied the ancient liturgical chant, emphasised its modal structure, gave it a particular and suitable harmonic guise and composed themselves inspired by these principles.
