The one that I have is "Ancient Echoes"  from Musical Heritage Society, and it 
is pretty much straight liturgical music performed by a genuine monastery choir 
- all male.  Talk about a solid low register!!

I have among others, "Sacred Treasures", the easy-listening version of 
Russian Liturgical music. It has 17 tracks - I'm usually unconscious by 
track 4. It's a terrific soporific.

By the way, you can get the sheet music for lots of this genre - 
composer names such as Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninoff appear frequently, 
among many others.  The source is Musica Russica at 
http://www.musicarussica.com/


I mention this because all of these pieces are 4-part harmonies and they 
sit perfectly for horn quartet.  The booklets are generally 4-6 pages 
long and inexpensive, though to get right with the diety, you should buy 
4 of each.  They make slow, lush, reverberating quartets - perfect for 
learning to play in tune, transpose (optional), relax, and sing out your 
soul with your comrades.  Not bad for about $2 @.
