Para Pacem Para Bellum” is the first CD release with the great music of Svyatoslav Lunyov's. That serious, highly emotional and spiritual work is the result of two general methods of creating music: academic tradition (scores, acoustic instruments and playing of the real musicians) and the contemporary/experimental way (generating, synthesis, editing with computer tools). Needs to say that this electro-acoustic work combines the well-known traditional elements of the Requiem, Passions and the Mass. There where the liturgical canon showes up just as the titles of some parts of the macrocycle. All the parts represent to some extent the variations of integral and unbroken melodic-harmonic complex. The whole work can be considered as a sort of chaconne.

The main dramatical collision of this work develops on the level of interaction/contraposition between the natural acoustic sounds (the piano, organ and the strings) and the synthetic electronic timbres.
