8 Tones

[Tsarina]

I want to learn the 8 tones of the Church. How do i go about doing this?

Does anyone have any good sites or advice on how i can start learning?

Please and Thank you.

God Bless!

I'm currently learning Byzantine chant at my church. St. Anthony's Monastery's website has a lot of information which our class is using to learn how to chant.

I think this would help you to learn the tones.

Thanks Andrew.

Learning the tones as been the hardest thing to do this year, lols. Hopefully I'll be able to pull this off. Like you, I'm trying to learn it in Byzantine.

this may help, too ...
even if you don't know Greek, it might help to develop your "ear" for the tones

I should read more carefully. For some reason I read 8 TOES of the church...
