Curriculum
The hymns' curriculum closely follows the Mahragan Al-Keraza 2026 curriculum as designed by Egypt with a few adjustments to fit the timeline of the Summer break. Also, since Egypt doesn't have a specific curriculum for college and graduates for 2026, a list from previous years is assembled to serve the needs of our churches.Level 1 Rules
As usual, Level 1 is for a group of learners that need to learn together and present the hymn as harmonized choir. While the preferred hymns language is Coptic, it is up to the church to decide if they want to learn it in English. English source is not provided as there is no standardized version. Additionally, in previous years, provided audio sources were not followed by some churches.Level 2 Rules
Level 2 is for individual learners who want to learn the hymn on their own and present it as a soloist. Level 2 hymns must be in Coptic, if presented in English, it will be disregarded.Submission Rules
Similar to previous years, video recordings will be required for submission. Details will be provided later.How to Use Coptic Chanter
