The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens and the National University of Music Bucharest will be running, in partnership, an international post-graduate program entirely dedicated to studying Byzantine Music, as Academic Theory and Artistic Performance.
The courses will start this autumn, either in person or online; they will be taught by Professors from the mentioned Universities and guest scholars from outside Greece and Romania, as well as highly acclaimed Byzantine Music performers, including the Archon Protopsaltis of the Holy Great Church of Christ Panagiotis Neochoritis.
Orientation courses are outlined in the attached poster, and details of admission and other administrative information will be made available to those interested by the end of June.
In the meantime, those interested in the post-graduate program can write to Professors Achilleas CHALDÆAKES (axaldaiak@music.uoa.gr) and Nicolae GHEORGHIȚĂ (naegheorghita@hotmail.com).
We are looking forward to welcoming you to this program dedicated both to the performance of Byzantine Chant and the research of Orthodox Sacred Music!
