Octoëchos 205 Plagal 1st Mode – T3 2026
The eight Octoëchos courses serve as a systematic primer in the theoretical and practical aspects of the eight modes of Byzantine Chant. Each mode is studied within the context of the Anastasimatarion, that is, the Resurrectional hymns of Saturday night Vespers and Sunday morning Orthros. Upon completing all of the Octoëchos courses, a student will be proficient in all eight modes in their heirmologic and sticheraric forms.
Enrollment in this class includes enrollment in Voice Lab 100. Students are encouraged to look at the separate Voice Lab course, and attend sessions that interest them.
