Byzantine chant has a rich book and manuscript culture going back a millennium, but English language Byzantine chant books are still a very new thing. What does it take to produce beautiful chant books in a world where electronic devices and loose leaf binders have become the norm in their absence? How do they get from a composer’s pencil to your chant stand? Richard Barrett, Cappella Romana’s Director of Publishing, invites you behind the curtain for the unique stories each of these books have to tell.
