Hear Ancient Byzantine Chant During Greek Fest at Holy Trinity Cathedral in New Orleans


From outside the doors of Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Cathedral, the baritone voice of John Michael Boyer can be heard.

Inside the church, Boyer is standing just to the right of the church’s icon screen while chanting the divine liturgy service of St. John the Theologian on a recent Monday morning.

Throughout the 90-minute service, Boyer remains focused on the prayers, the music and his voice — something he’s practiced for most of his life.

“My mother says that I started singing before I began talking,” Boyer laughed.
