Music from the Triodion Cycle

These troparia and kontakia and related materials have been collected from many sources.   Some of the music comes from books put out by the Orthodox Church of America or can be located on their website (these are linked when possible), and these pieces are gratefully acknowledged.

There are no links to Resurrectional Tone for Troparion because these differ from year to year.  Counting begins from Pentecost (Tone 1 at the Second Sunday after Pentecost and they keep repeating 1 through 8) through the Fifth Sunday of Lent.  Refer to your church calendar for the Tone of the Sunday and then go to Sunday Troparia.

NOTE: This is a work in progress and pages are being added.
