GALLOS, FATHER GEORGE AND ANNA
The Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, in English. In the 1st and Plagal First Modes
This Divine Liturgy, written expressly to be sung in English, uses the standard translation forms modified and adapted by Father Gallos to suit the new music which is based on traditional Byzantine melodies in the first and plagal first modes. The music is similar to Opus 3 and can be used interchangeably by those choirs whose priests like to use both Greek and English during one Liturgy. It is written for mixed choir, the organ accompaniment being the reduction of the choral parts.
The Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom (Gallos II) in English
The familiar Sakellarides melodies are now available in English for mixed choir and/or children’s unison choir. It includes the Doxology and all eight of the Anastasima Apolytikia.

This Greek and English Liturgy is based on traditional melodies. It also incorporates music by Dr. S. A. Spathis (Agios O Theos to Enite) as arranged and adapted for any size mixed choir, with or without accompaniment. The original Greek is presented with English phonetics, and most of the liturgy can also be sung in English (only a few hymns and responses are not translated). The music is user friendly, no awkward page turn, and very sing able – no extreme ranges. It opens in D, moves to G for Ayios O Theos to Enite and finishes in Eb for Idhomen to Fos to the end. It also contains, in Greek and English, all eight Apolytikia and all possible substitutions for Soson Imas.
