CANTILLATION
More
than 1200 years ago, the Masoretes, a group of Torah scribes and scholars,
created two systems to aid in the interpretation and the oral presentation of
Torah: the vowels (nikudot) and a system of cantillation (ta’amei
mikra). We will learn how trope/cantillation helps to interpret the text
and how to use the trope to bring Torah to life. In just a few short sessions
with Cantor Randall Schloss, we will all learn how to chant Torah!
