New Music for the Dormition

The following additions have been uploaded for the feast of the Dormition:

• A complete musical setting of all of the stichera and idiomela for the feast, including both long and short settings of the Vespers prosomia
• Multiple long settings of the 8-mode doxastikon for the feast, by Phillip Phares
• Complete musical settings of the two canons for the Transfiguration, whose texts were metered by an anonymous contributor to the website
• A rendering of the first canon of the feast into modern English, and a musical setting thereof, by Samuel Herron
• Nicholas Roumas’ setting of the Dismissal Hymn for the feast
• Musical scores for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Antiphons, the Prokeimenon, and the Alleluia (both of them in short and fast versions)
• 2 musical settings for the Megalynarion for the Theotokos at the Divine Liturgy, one of them adapted from Ioannis Arvanitis

In addition to the above, I have also completed a slow setting of the Great Doxology in diatonic Grave Mode, which has been added to the Matins page.

Blessed feast to all!
