New music for the Annunciation and for Vespers

Three new additions for the Annunciation have been uploaded:
- A setting of “Blessed is the man” in 4th Mode “Legetos,” which I was commissioned to adapt from Hieromonk Theophanes’ of Vatopaidi’s transcription and arrangement of a traditional Athonite melody. A recording of some selected verses of the Greek original can be found here. The score for my setting can be found on the Vespers page.
- Settings of the three idiomela in 1st Mode chanted at the Entreaty (Lity) of Vespers for the Annunciation.
- A draft setting of the full canon of the feast by an anonymous contributor to the site. The metered translation is being heavily revised and will be updated next year, God willing, but it is offered this year in light of the lack of other materials.
A blessed feast to all!
