what is the exact order of the Midnight Praises for Great Lent? When are the various hymns that are specific for Great Lent chanted?]]> https://tasbeha.org/community/discussion/12998/rite-of-the-general-funereal-prayer Tue, 06 Mar 2012 01:27:17 +0000 kyrollos faheem 12998@/community/discussions
Last year, someone from the HCOC choir posted a PDF file of the changes that the Holy Synod made concerning the General Funereal Prayer that is conducted after the liturgy of Palm Sunday. I was wondering if anyone still has access to that file and would not mind sharing it. You can PM it to me. I would greatly appreciate it.

Also, I was talking to some churches and the stated that they did not do it in the annual tune but the mournful tune instead. Some churches were not even aware of the changes. Can anyone bring insight into this? I presumed an issue like this would be global the minute that the Holy Synod decides on it. I'm not saying this isn't genuine; definitely not! I'm just curious as to why some people aren't aware of it. I mean, wouldn't this be published in the El Keraza the same year they made the decision? Or, was it published and this is just a result of not being updated on church news?]]> https://tasbeha.org/community/discussion/13001/lent-conclusion-hymn Tue, 06 Mar 2012 17:26:12 +0000 mabsoota 13001@/community/discussions http://tasbeha.org/mp3/Hymns/Fasts/Great_Lent/Wagdi_Bishara/Great_Lent_-_Liturgy.html
different from the hymn lyrics here:
http://tasbeha.org/hymn_library/view/688

the line 'sha entevsotten khen nenovi' (my own poor transliteration so please no sahidic / greco bohairic / old bohairic discussions here which are way over my head!)
is not in the audio hymn. should we be singing this line? and if so, how do we pronounce it? (ok, here u can have all yr coptic language arguments!)
i know i just have to listen more carefully on sunday to see if it's there or not, but i am often distracted at this point (making sure i don't miss the holy water, watching the sub deacons tidying the altar etc.)

and (if i may ask 2 questions in one post!) does anyone have the lyrics for the weekday conclusion? i am off work (yay!) so get to go to church once or twice this week during the week  :)]]> https://tasbeha.org/community/discussion/12972/hymn-search-khen-efran Mon, 27 Feb 2012 15:34:24 +0000 mabsoota 12972@/community/discussions can anyone tell me where to find the lyrics for the 'khen efran' (in the name of the Lord) hymn that is sung together with the 'axios' for a new priest, newly baptised person etc. i am not sure if it is the same hymn, and i was trying to make out the words on sunday when our new priest joined us.
there was a big group of people, no microphone, and (i am sure!) many people joining in who were not sure of the words, so it sounded a bit like 'aaaa khqzfgeyeeee opwstmzodnfauuu' and then axios for saint mary, our church's saint, and (what sounded like!) other random people, clergy and saints added in.

what cracks me up is i was translating for my friend who knows even less coptic and arabic than me, and trying to make it make sense to him!
i love my church, but it makes me laugh sometimes

1) To use or not to use the cymbals?
2) Do we have to say the part's explanation for the Theotokia or the psalies on the hoses?
3) For batos, is the tune of Tenoweh ensok and the Theotokia Lobishes the same?
4) For Sunday do we say Aikoti and Ainahti or Aiwshy anta acme only?
5) Besides the Great Hos, the explanations, the lent psalies (watos and adam) and the psalies on the hoses, is there any other additions for the fast?
6) Is the tune for the Adam theotokias, Neknai O Panoti, and the commemoration of saints annual?]]> https://tasbeha.org/community/discussion/12953/bright-saturday-tenen Thu, 23 Feb 2012 18:59:01 +0000 egyboy 12953@/community/discussions
I was just listening to the track titled "Introduction" at this link: http://tasbeha.org/mp3/Hymns/Other_Occasions/Bright_Saturday/Ibrahim_Ayad/Part_1.html

If you listen you can hear Tenen with the 3oud and other instruments being played in the background. I love the sound of this instrumental. Does anyone know where I can find it without the voice?]]> https://tasbeha.org/community/discussion/12934/share-fnouti Sun, 19 Feb 2012 18:56:12 +0000 coptic_deacon 12934@/community/discussions https://tasbeha.org/community/discussion/12938/i-ayad-old-recordings Mon, 20 Feb 2012 00:47:02 +0000 coptic_deacon 12938@/community/discussions https://tasbeha.org/community/discussion/12914/what-are-the-rites-for-the-sunday-before-the-first-day-monday-of-great-lent Wed, 15 Feb 2012 18:26:35 +0000 hany58 12914@/community/discussions

Can someone please post the doxology for Saint Paul The Anchorite and also his "hiten".

Urgent, need for liturgy tomorrow.

I remember I read it on here somewhere but I can not find the exact thread; someone said that the Virgin Mary had normal labor pain like every other woman. He/she also gave a good explanation of why, but what is that? That is not immaculate conception by any mean right?]]> https://tasbeha.org/community/discussion/12879/feasts-overriding-other-feasts Sat, 04 Feb 2012 22:41:00 +0000 copticuser20 12879@/community/discussions
Which rites would we follow in cases like these. What if the calendar shifted one day and Palm Sunday and the Annunciation where on the same day? They are two different feasts with different tunes and hymns yet they are equal in that they are both Major Feasts. ]]> https://tasbeha.org/community/discussion/12874/great-lent-recording-by-cantor-ibrahim-ayad Fri, 03 Feb 2012 16:20:27 +0000 kyrollos faheem 12874@/community/discussions
I hope everyone is doing well and is getting ready for Jonah's fast. With that said, I was wondering if anyone has the newer recording of the Great Lent and Jonah's fast by Cantor Ibrahim Ayad. Last year, someone posted a website for it and I didn't get a chance to download it. If someone can post it, that would be great. Thank you very much and take care.]]> https://tasbeha.org/community/discussion/12861/omonogenes-hymn-question Mon, 30 Jan 2012 18:49:09 +0000 hany58 12861@/community/discussions
In the hymn of Omonogenes, do we say GE-GONOS, or GE-GHONOS. The coptic text shows Gamma followed by an O. In this case it should be GE-GHONOS. Cantor ibrahim says GE-GONOS, whilst Cantor Farag says it GE-GHONOS. Anyone knows what is the right pronounciation? is to do with differences between Latin & Coptic?

I am looking for a number of items that I'm trying to purchase. If anyone knows where I can get these I would appreciate it. If anyone happens to be in the vicinity of where these items are sold and would be kind enough to ship to me (even from Egypt) I'd be happy to pay all expenses.

1) The book "Khedmit Il-shamas, Nahdet Ilkanayis edition".
2) Complete recordings for Muallim Fahim and Muallim Tewfiq.
3) Any videos or audio recordings of Christmas and Easter in the cathedral from the 1970's and 1980's.
4) This one is going to be very elusive (as are the rest probably) - A Liturgy for Fr. Abd El-Massih Ishaq who was a priest in Dayrut, Egypt from the 1950's to the 1970's approximately.
5) Any other liturgies for Fr. Abd El-Massih Marqus Al-Luxori besides the two that are commonly available (one Gregorian and one Bassilian).
6) The Holy Week recordings for Muallim Ibrahim Ayad recorded in about 1998 (not the older ones from the 80's).

Does anyone here have the musical notes of Coptic hymns?

Just the notes - not the actual music itself.

Do you know where I can download it from?
