Course Description
Ever wonder how Torah readers know what melodies to chant or how they recognize words without vowels? This class will cover all this and more. You will learn trope symbols, the melodies that belong to them and look at different Torah excerpts to build or hone your Torah learning and chanting skills. With this course, we hope to add to our community of Torah readers who perform the mitzvah of chanting Torah on Shabbat and in Minyan services. Hebrew reading proficiency is needed. If you do not feel confident in Hebrew reading, please consider taking our “Hebrew Reading” class!
