In the recording I only hear you execute an ornament on the first one (Glory) but not on the other three (5th line, destroyed, last page mercy, and “to” of Glory be to Thee). Is this standard practice – don’t add ornamentation t…Read more

Clearly the first is at a faster tempo – is that why it sounds tighter while the second seems looser and more relaxed? I noticed that in both of them the ornaments are smoother and less obvious than mine! Part of this seems to be pitch related – they don’t necessarily go up or down all the way…Read more

Plus, yes, lots of ornamentation, maybe that adds to the impression that the voice is constantly in motion. He also slides into notes. Very expressive.

He often adds beats of rest between theseis. Less polished vocal quality.

2nd recording (student) – Faster. More polished sounding. He simplifies theseis sometimes, less complicated than what is written.

They both use some of the ornaments we learned last week.

This accentuates the beat. I am surprised that there are a lot of silent spots. He doesn’t necessarily hold notes out. It feels very relaxed, though. It doesn’t feel beat driven, even though when I tap, he seems to…Read more

My name is Katie Brumley. This is my second or third Octoechos class. I’m hoping this one is easier than the last one – and I think it will be! Through Lent and Holy Week I had so much practice chanting that my reading fluency is getting better. After taking the Lenten break from chant classes I also have renewed energy to…Read more

So ehow it won’t let me on. Could you maybe open up the class to not require that we complete each step before moving on?

Let’s wait with a new Typikon until we have more knowledge and experience using what is available. I have so little experience that I wouldn’t be able to even say what the problem is with the current Typikon. I love the idea of giving options to parishes to help them know what is “okay” to cut or do differently, as so many parishes…Read more

In the past I spent a lot of time listening to hymns and then practiced chanting them with ornamentation and using good vocal techniques. But I can’t focus on everything at once. I’m glad to know that the goal of this class is to read on parallagi fluently. So I will work on that, and not worry about…Read more

You can see the Third Mode modal signature with the Ga Diatonic fthora at the end. This indicates we should chant Diatonic Intervals with an unstable Zo, whose tuning depends on the melody.”

If Third Mode uses the Enharmonic scale, why are we using Diatonic intervals? I realize there is some overlap, but both…Read more

Should I be listening to the Independent Reading lesson – 3rd Mode Hymns of Ascent or not until after I read it myself?
