Foundations of the Psaltic Art and Liturgical Practice
This workshop has been created with the help of the SBM and the Detroit Youth Director, Fr. Maggos of Annunciation Church in Rochester, and Rick Hanson (SBM Administrator) for exposure to the rich tradition of the Psaltic art in our Holy Orthodox Church and for continuing education. The workshop includes a short morning presentation on the psaltic art, lunch, and a practicum portion to learn and apply notations and hymns, including but not limited to how to set up Orthros. Vespers will follow with both professors chanting antiphonally. The following day, on Sunday, it is encouraged for those who attended the workshop to stay overnight and put to practice or simply witness a full Orthros and Divine Liturgy in the Byzantine Antiphonal Tradition. [Note: the Metropolis of Detroit Youth Office requests a “one time fee” of $25 dollar registration.]
Presented by Rev. Fr. Romanos Karanos, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Byzantine Liturgical Music at HCHC, Georgios Theodoridis, Lead Musical Director of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America.
