The Heritage of the Coptic Orthodox Church - Church Hymns Recorded and Explained
The Heritage of the Coptic Orthodox Church (HCOC) choir was founded in the summer of 2000, under the leadership of Deacon Albair Mikhail. Most choir members are from the church of the Prophet Daniel and the Three Saintly Youth in Mississauga, Canada. HCOC also has members from the churches in the Greater Toronto Area, Montreal, the USA, Australia, and Egypt.
The aim of the HCOC is the preservation of the increasingly at-risk oral chant heritage of Coptic hymnology, through receiving and recording the most accurate renditions of the hymns. These academic recordings are intended to be references for the education, preservation and enrichment of Copts and those who are interested in the historical musical heritages of indigenous communities around the world.
In handing down the hymns, we follow a rigorous study, research, and comparative analysis of Coptic hymnology from Cantor Mikhail El-Batanouny, who is our main source, and his disciples.

Thank you so much for this wonderful app. I have always wished to know which hymns to sing in every season and in what way. You gave me just that! God bless your work and I hope you keep uploading more and more hymns to teach the masses. As for the design of the soundtracks, I wish you would add the option of skipping ahead and going back in increments of 15 seconds or so. Otherwise, it is perfect!

What a great app this is. I think this is a must have for every deacon. My only suggestion would be to add “hazzat” section to follow longer hymns and its classes.
