Byzantine Chant Traditions

For nearly 20 years, Lycourgos Angelopoulos has been unearthing the mystical chants of the Byzantine empire’s written and oral traditions and bringing them to life for today’s audiences. The singers of this extraordinary choir offer an intoxicating mix of Medieval hymns and psalms for what promises to be another magical evening at one of Boston’s most exceptional Greek cathedrals.

A sure sell-out—buy your tickets early to guarantee the best seats!

Presented in cooperation with the Axion Estin Foundation, Inc.

“Singing seems merely an extension of breathing: unearthing fresh chants from the archives…is [their] meat and drink.” The Independent
