Tikey Zes taught at San Jose State when I was there, so this was a delight to see (and hear).

Dear Singers, Supporters, Friends and Family:
AXIOS Music is thrilled to announce the premiere performance of the Soma Christou Virtual Choir!
During the midnight Easter Liturgy, scores of Orthodox choirs sing Tikey Zes’s arrangement of the Paschal communion hymn, “Soma Christou.” As a tribute to Tikey and his music, choir members from around the United States helped AXIOS Music create the first-ever Orthodox virtual choir. We chose to record “Soma Christou” because of its singular place in the annals of Greek Orthodox choral music in the United States.
It was a joy working with all of our participants — our deepest gratitude for your contributions!
Christos Anesti! Christ is Risen!
