The Torah is not only read…it is sung!

The musical notations – commonly referred to as "trop" â€" that accompanies every public Torah reading, were transmitted at Sinai along with the written and oral Torah. The trop, in addition to conveying meaning, emotion, and proper pronunciation to the Torah text, also consists of a distinct and detailed "grammar" of its own. This oftentimes overlooked study is the subject of this scholarly volume that analyzes the grammar of the trop.

For anyone who is a Ba'al Korei or endeavors to be; or for anyone interested in this unique dimension of Torah study, this groundbreaking, authoritative text may be for you.
