You're absolutely right that learning from the Cantor is a great experience. I had this dream to learn from Cantor Ibrahim directly, but I had to learn from recordings as well. I absolutely like Cantor Gad, I personally think that he has the best (&…
According to what I know, you say them after the synaxarium. But again you can say them during the glorification of the saint. Those hymns are quite rare actually, the only sources that recorded them are: Cantor Zaher Anderawes & Albair's team (…
Apekran is a hymn said for saints that are monks & were not martyrs. The hymn of Pi Ehlog is said for the Martyrs. Adam Abel is said for the profets.
According to Cantor Ibrahim Ayad, you can say Apekran after the senixar or during distributio…
You have no idea how much I love this. During the fasting of St Mary, a young priest came to our church & started chanting this hymn, he had one of the nicest voices I have ever heard. Thank you so much indeed
Anyone please? there must a recording somewhere. It doesn't have to be just the Alleluia by itself. If you have a recording of psalm+alleluia then that's fine. Thanks
I agree with you Mina, but what I'm saying is that we have no genuine recording of Kiahk Psalm 150 with the tune of the Kiahk Doxologies. All what I'm saying is to stop changing the tunes to make things simpler. If the tune is long, then we should l…
My personal opinion is that we shouldn't chant the Kiahk Psalm 150 in the doxologies tune. Psalm 150 is got its own "Unique" tune. If we all stick to the Doxologies tune, then one day the hymns of the church will perish because we didn't learn them …
That's Interesting, but to be quite honest I really like Cantor Gad as well. He is a great Cantor really, I will never forget the moment when he cried during his interview because he was upset that people change the hymns of the church.
This refrain has been added by the holy Synod quite recently, I think at 2006-2007. But it wasn't recorded in any of the original old recordings. At our church we always chant the long version of psalm 150 in coptic & without the refrain. I pers…
Cantor Gad is a teacher at St. Didamos Monastery & HICS. He also serves in St Dimana (El Haram). I have just seen an interview that was recorded by the Chorus of David & Cantor Gad mentioned this.
So no one knows how Cantor Zaher look like…
There are some changes that happen during the mass i.e. Hiten, Epraxis Response, Pachoice, Psalm, Psalm response, Gospel Response, You can say the annual Asbasmos Adam or the Kiahk Asbasmos Adam, the Watos Asbasmos, Psalm 150, Je fes maro ot, Ef eme…
It was amazing to see the pope supporting the chanting of hymns in Coptic & not in any other language. I personally think that we shouldn't say hymns in any other language than coptic. ;D
Our Church Hymns are all very beautiful, my suggestion is:
1. Ari Ho o Chasf (Midnight Praise)
2. Tenen
3. Tenthino (long)
4. Long Praxis Response (Shere)
5. Ariprasvavin (Glorification)
6. Shere The o toke (Long), (Glorification)
7. Annual …
Wow!!! you guys are very lucky ;D, I wish I can come to USA when Cantor Ibrahim goes there. By the way, anyone knows where I can download liturgies that has Cantor Ibrahim Ayad? I have downloaded some, but I still need to download more. By the way,…
May the lord & the intercession of the saints be with you, don't worry, God doesn't leave his children. I really like HH Pope Sheounda when he goes through lots of problems, he always says one word "Matkhafoosh" which means "Don't be afraid".
I wish I can meet with Ibrahim Ayad one day, he is my hero..... ;D, does anyone know how old he is? I think he is about late 50s right? Anyone knows if there are any interviews with him?
Also, I like to know some information about Cantor Gad Lewi…
Ohh and actually, the annual rites were recorded in 1987, while the palm sunday rites were recorded in approximately 2007. Cantor Ibrahim recorded the full set of the rites of the feast of the cross, he recorded them at the end of 2009, but I person…
I fully agree with Minagir, I love Ibrahim Ayad's voice when he recorded the resurrection tapes, absolutely fantastic. & Yes Mina, I'm obssessed with this guy, I'm a big fan
Hi Everyone,
tomorrow we will add the complete map of the hymn of Praxeon Ton (Covenant Thursday Praxis).
Looking forward your feedback.
thanks

I completely agree with you in what you are saying, but again, there is a question that I want to ask: Can I stop other people learning because I don’t want to learn? I can simply say: “I’m not interested to learn these hymns, but others are welcome…
