Here is a rare and moving video of the chant “Anmmana” (“My People”), from the Good Friday liturgy of the Syriac tradition. The text is a translation of a Latin chant(Reproaches) and can be found in Dewalaya Geethangal. Until now, however, the melody had been lost. We are deeply grateful to Thomas Karuvelil for preserving this tradition—recalling the tune and singing it for us.......
Christian Musicological Society of India is an international forum for interdisciplinary research, discussion, and dissemination of knowledge, on the music, art and dance of about thirty million Christians in India, who belong to a diverse set of communities and linguistic groups and follow a variety of liturgical traditions some of which date back to the early Christian era. Founded in 1999 by Dr. Joseph J. Palackal CMI, the Society hopes that such researches will draw attention to the lesser known aspects of India in connection with the rest of the world.
