Indeed, the music is beautiful with a definite feel of the Ancient Byzantine (Constantinople - Greek).

Did you notice the presentation of Holy Icons near the end of that video?

The words Kyrie were also chanted, but I do not know if they were in a religious context as the pagan Roman emperors were worshipped as gods.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.
