The Choir of Eparchy of Tripoli

The Choir of Eparchy of Tripoli is a Lebanese liturgical ensemble dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich tradition of Byzantine Christian music within the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch. Based in Tripoli, Lebanon, this vocal group specializes in performing hymns, liturgies, and devotional chants in Arabic, often featuring works by influential composers like Fr. Nicola Malek (الأب نقولا مالك). Their repertoire spans ancient psalms, solemn prayers like the Great Compline (صلاة النَّوم الكبرى), and full Divine Liturgies attributed to saints such as John Chrysostom, maintaining the contemplative beauty of Eastern Orthodox worship traditions. Recent releases showcase their focus on seasonal services like the Paraklesis (البراكليسي) to the Virgin Mary and tributes to venerated saints including St. Nicholas and St. Marina, serving as both a spiritual resource and cultural archive for Arabic-speaking Christian communities.
