Byzantine Choir "Tropos"

Center for the Study of the Psaltic Art

The Choir was founded by Constantinos Ath. Angelidis and his associates in late 2005 with the aim to study and promote age-old Byzantine music. 

The source of our inspiration and discipleship has been the deepest understanding of the church experience, the devout attendance of its services, the imbuing of our books of Psalms with the style and the spirit of “the music of angels,” the devotion to our own music, and the scholarly approach to a wide range of compositions made by renowned composers of the Byzantine and post-Byzantine period, who represent the chanting tradition of the Great Church and Mount Athos. 

The Choir has recorded 29 CDs which are a reference point for our rich musical heritage as they feature a rich body of unpublished works by great composers from Constantinople and Mount Athos from the thirteenth century to the present.
