As a historical curiosity, I attach the transcriptions of several pieces into staff notation done by Archimandrite (and later Bishop) Porphirij Uspenskij* (they were published in his Первое путешествие в Афонские монастыри и скиты в 1846 году. Ч.2. Приложения к 2-му отделению 2-й части. 1881. The entire volume can be downloaded here). I don't know where he got them from. The pieces are as follows:
- Kekragarion of Mode 1 (no lyrics), pp. 93-94.
- Kekragarion of Mode Plagal 1 (no lyrics), pp. 95-96.
- Dogmatikon of Mode Plagal 1 (no lyrics), pp. 97-98.
- Cheroubikon of Balasios, Mode 1 (no lyrics), pp. 99-102.
- Cheroubikon of Chrysaphes, Mode 3 (no lyrics), pp. 103-106.
- Axion estin (Greek lyrics transliterated into Russian), p. 107.
- Teaching method of Balasios (no lyrics), pp. 108-112.
* Russian traveller and erudite with some disposition towards stealing rare old manuscripts from the Christian Orient.
