Online Byzantine Music Classes

Find Your Path Through Byzantine Music

Byzantine Academy offers a structured approach to studying Byzantine music through online lessons with Johana Tannous. Students can work on notation, melodic understanding, rhythmic skills, modes and repertoire according to their experience and goals.

The curriculum is organized into four learning levels. These levels provide a general pathway rather than a promise that every student will progress at the same speed.

Choose how you would like to study

Private lessons provide individual attention. A level-based private curriculum offers a more structured sequence of learning objectives. Group semester classes provide an opportunity to learn alongside other students when a suitable group is available.

The most appropriate format depends on your goals, experience and schedule. Contact Johana to discuss the options.
