Composed by Anon. Arranged by Marilena Zlatanou. A Cappella. 6 pages. Marilena Zlatanou #956715. Published by Marilena Zlatanou (A0.1372416).PAPYRUS OXY.1786 Fragment of hymn to the Holy Trinity (end og 3rd cent. AD)
Found on papyrus at ancient Oxyrhynchus (Egypt), written in Ancient Greek and in ancient Greek musical notation, transcribed to modern notation and published in Documents of Ancient Greek Music (edited and transcr. by E. Pöhlmann and M.L. West, Clarendon Press/Oxford, 2001).
(...All praise through us the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost...)
The first 15 bars are written as printed in the above-mentioned publication and simply distributed to the choir voices. The rest is my attempt to incorporate this fragment in an a cappella SATB choir piece, in an effort to combine my knowledge and inspiration of both ancient Greek music and Byzantine hymnography, as well as classical choir writing.
Duration: ca 5'
Phonetic transcription in the Latin alphabet is notated right below the original Greek text, English translation, and a key to Greek Pronunciation are provided on the title page.
