Mission Statement

Psaltiki, Inc. is a nonprofit organization, tax exempt under Section 501(c)(3), Tax ID # 20-8541253, based in Orlando, Florida. Psaltiki’s purpose is to provide educational services oriented to the promotion and advancement of the Psaltic Art, Byzantine and Post-Byzantine Hymnology and Musicology—the sacred music of the Eastern Orthodox Churches.

This includes cultivating a knowledgeable appreciation for all aspects of this cultural heritage, including hymnology, typikon, musicology and its academic study, always with a focus on its practical perpetuation.

This mission will be realized via a suite of projects and activities, including publications, exhibits, conferences and educational communication initiatives based on an axis of grass-roots needs, as well as forward-looking development.

In short, Psaltiki, Inc. is dedicated to supporting and cultivating excellence in the Byzantine chant art form, bringing the art form to America, and providing leadership and innovation to chant education.

A major focus of Psaltiki, Inc. is the fostering of a climate and environment of respect, appreciation and excellence with regards to the psaltic art form. We believe this can only be done through a discrete cultivation and the building of bridges with the living sources and monuments.

Our Mission:

To provide knowledge, resources and visibility for the perpetuation of the Psaltic Art, Byzantine and Post-Byzantine Hymnology and Musicology today, educating, empowering and connecting the next generation of chanters, students and researchers of Byzantine Musicology and Hymnology for tomorrow.
