- YouTube Tchaikovsky wrote most of his music for the church actually, and it's become a mainstay among Russian Orthodox churches where the choirs sing a capella.
This is the hymn of the Cherubim. It was sung at both my mother in law and father in law's funerals.
And this is 2 hours of church music, assorted hymns. This is what is sung from the choir. In both the 2 Orthodox churches that my Russian inlaws attended the choir would sing from an upper chamber above the church at set points in the service.

At 21:28 Poz'de vanilloy the song is a solemn one, asking for the mercy of God. This is sung at every church service I can recall, but front and centre on solemn occasions.
