We used to have a live audio feed set up in our parish; it doesn't work now. My priest--daily--does the Hours, Vespers, sometimes Matins, etc. Altogether were probably offer more Divine Services than most parishes for 50 miles around. Our parish's site: www.stgeorgeserbian.us We live, however, in a world without tonality.

Wow, thats pretty impressive to do all of those services. Is there a cantor during the week to help?

Tonality (or lack thereof)... ha! All things considered, it doesnt sound bad at all. You should hear some Russian "choirs" these days...

I didn't know your priest was Fr. Rodney! He seems to be quite active; I hear his name fairly often...

We don't really have a cantor; our choir director and a few choir members are gifted enough to sing in solo fashion. But we do a form of Serbian folk singing, apparently with a few Rusyn melodies mixed in (our parish stems from a Russian Orthodox/Metropolia parish with Rusyn roots).

Enough good things cannot be said on Fr. Rodney's behalf. He is the priest who received me into the Church. A truly good man who lives his life in a rare form humility. It was because he held services everyday that I met him some seven years ago.

Isnt it nice?

If you like that one, I'd reccomend their photo albums of the services: http://www.iona.kiev.ua/gallery.php?menu=leiturgy
and monastic brotherhood: http://www.iona.kiev.ua/gallery.php?menu=brothers

(there are plenty of others as well, but I wasnt sure if you could read Cyrillic)

I can read Cyrillic, but I can't speak any of the languages. :)
