Description
Designed for congregational signing, the Divine Liturgy Hymnal is a musical setting of the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom that was produced in 2016 by the Holy Eparchial Synod of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America and approved by the Ecumenical Patriarchate. With Greek, Greek phonetics and English.
This Hymnal also contains additional hymns that were translated and approved by the Holy Eparchial Synod, as well as hymns from the Oloi Mazi project of the National Forum of Greek Orthodox Church Musicians. It offers new arrangements of the hymns with a more Byzantine sound than the older hymnal. There are slight melodic variations in the musical phrasing of the Greek and English versions of the same hymn to better express the text and meet the musical need of each language appropriately.
The National Forum of Greek Orthodox Church Musicians and the Department of Religious Education worked together to create this new Hymnal, which was approved by the Eparchial Synod.
