Good evening,
Attached to this message are some leitourgika that I composed in plagal first mode. They are not "minor," nor are they "Phrygian," etc. I wanted to have some leitourgika that were relatively traditional, and not difficult for a priest/people to follow.
I also did an adaptation of an Axion Estin by Michael Hatziathanasiou. The starting martyria says "first mode," although the cadences on Pa, Di, and Ke make it sound very much like plagal first. So, I used them together in this particular composition.
In Christ,
Gabriel
