Rhythms of Saint Ephrem the Syrian by John Brande Morris
As a member of the Oxford Movement, Morris had a natural fascination with Eastern Christianity. Using his linguistic skills to translate select works of St. Ephrem into English, he chose those that would create an impact on his fellow Englishmen in the nineteenth century. These works are still treasured by western proponents of Eastern Christianity today.

The ‘Book of Heraclides of Damascus’: The Theological Apologia of Mar Nestorius by Paul Bedjan
Nestorius, deposed by the Council of Ephesus, spent his final years composing an apologia defending his theological beliefs, which became known as the ‘Book (or ‘Bazaar’) of Heraclides’. The Greek original is lost, but this Syriac translation survived in a single manuscript in the library of the Catholicos of the East, in his mountain retreat of Qodshanes. Bedjan gives an edition of this vital Syriac text.

A concert of St. Ephraim’s hymns presented by the Syriac Music Choir proved so successful that requests were made for a CD of the music performed. This resulted in The 1700th Anniversary of St. Ephraim the Lyre of the Holy Spirit. Eight hymns are included on the CD. The first hymn is a combination of five melodies that constitute St. Ephraim's entreaties of Lent, a hymn well-known to many. The second hymn features different musical scales; the text is from Ephraim’s lyric about Joseph. The remaining tracks feature old Edessian hymns and other composed on the rhythms of St. Ephraim.

When arranging the hymns for performance, great care was taken to preserve their original form. Some of the hymns feature modern acoustical instruments in traditional musical arrangements designed to show their beauty and flexibility to many different listeners.
