Ta’amim / טעמים with Hazzan Asher Shasho Levy

  • Private residence in the Mission (map)

Learn how to chant torah in the Sephardic tradition. We’ll discuss the system of pronunciations and cantillation/trop marks that create the melodies and how they’re to the text of the torah.

This class is designed for each session to build on the last, so it is required that you come to every session.

After this course, you will be able to chant sections of the torah without the vowels or cantillation marks, i.e. it’ll be no sweat when the rabbi calls you up to read torah on Saturday mornings.

Prerequisite
You must know all of the hebrew letters and be able to read the text.
