Actually I’ve already listened to the CDs. They are, as we are used to from HCOC, done with a high level of proficiency. Personally I liked them very much and enjoyed listening to them
Good job all HCOC servants, and keep up the good work.

Agapitoc,
As time passes, i realize more and more that the work of protecting and preserving the heritage of our glorious church is extremely challanging. This is where we share a common goal. It surely surpasses any single man or groups capacities. The HCOC shares all our joy and ethusiasm with each one of you today, as we have released a small part of this massive project. I would like to thank all of my most beloved and esteemed brothers in service for their unfailing dedication.
We invite all of you to pray for us and our new serivice.
In a way, we are ALL HCOC members.
Mathitis: Were all in the same situation. Don't worry dude, we can get paul to start a charity on the site to get you a copy. Maybe, you could start with the Vespers praise since it's not that expensive. eh, if things don't get better soon i'll send you my copy. Seriously.
Agapi, |

There's an important point that I would like to bring up regarding HCOC recordings.
Quoting from our mission statement:
| Quote: |
| Our recordings are foremost intended to be references for learning the rites and hymns of the Coptic Orthodox Church. |
So whereas our recordings can be used for spiritual listening, we intend them as learning tools.
The recordings embody the research that is done by the HCOC into the accuracy of hymns. The knowledge that Albair imparts on these forums is in fact distilled in our recordings.
We do call on all deacons to listen to the recordings, be convinced of our methodology, and then adapt the way they chant the hymns in their church to those on the recordings. As always, we are open to questions as to why a certain rendition of a hymn made it into our recordings vs. other possibilities. In fact, we welcome these questions.
Also, we call on all deacons to adopt the mentality that drives the HCOC:
Understand the words of the hymn.
Understand the spirituality of the hymn.
Understand the music of the hymn.
Understand the history of the hymn.
Be zealous in protecting the hymn.
The mission of the HCOC is the mission of every deacon: To Protect and Preserve. Join the HCOC in protecting the heritage of the Coptic Orthodox Church. |

"Beh Ism El-Saleeb 3aleikom ya guys!" (in a hardcore FOB accent)
i was i think the first guy to recieve your 7 CD collection here in Montreal ( got it off Luke, the guy who said TiMetnishti and Lipon), anyway, i totally fell in love with the service you guys are accomplishing, May God keep Albair and all of you, and may He chase away all unseen warfare speedily.
Can't wait 'till more comes out!!!!
with all the love and admiration i can muster,
your impressed brother and fan,
moe. |

Mourad and Mathitis, it would be awesome if you guys came down and visited your fellow Canucks, attended a class with us and let us meet you guys!
The HCOC is an example of how loving the church in our hearts benefits the church across the globe. Put your faith in action and all benefit. |

Abouna Anastasi is on the first production (the rite and hymns of the Annual Sunday Midnight Praise), not this one. |
