Setting of the Byzantine chant for dismissal at the time of Pentecost
This version uses the more traditional homophonic movement of voices
another version is available in which I use a more Westernised polyphonic approach.
The sound sample is my own multitrack performance.
The score shows the Greek words transcribed into Latin letters
since more choirs can read those.
However, for information, here are the original words and the translation

Ευλογητός εί, Χριστέ ο Θεός ημών,
ο πανσόφους τους αλιείς αναδείξας,
καταπέμψας αυτοίς το Πνεύμα το Άγιον,
και δι' αυτών την οικουμένην σαγηνεύσας,
Φιλάνθρωπε,
δόξα Σοι

Blessed be you, O Christ our God
Who showed the fishermen to be most wise
you sent the Holy Spirit upon them
and through them you caught the inhabited world in your net
O Lover of Mankind
Glory to you

Setting of the Byzantine chant for dismissal at the time of Pentecost
This version uses a somewhat Westernised polyphonic approach
another version is available in which I use the more traditional homophonic movement of voices
The sound sample is my own multitrack performance transposed down a third.

since more choirs can read those.
