Issue with Annunciation Hymns Recordings by Gad Lewis

Hello, 

Some of the hymns of the annunciation listed under the voice of Moa3lem Gad Lewis are completely different than the provided Coptic text of the hymn on here. 

For instance, for the Psalm 150 refrain, the cantor omits “Isos” from “Isos Piekhrisros” and also seems to be signing something different than what’s written. Hoping that a new recording from him can be released or updated. The ones from Wagdi Bishara suffice. 

Also, I can’t crop this at the moment, but minute 19:34 from this beautiful liturgy also features “Afrek Nifiowi” (Aspasmos Watos of the Anunciation) - another great recording to add on the site: https://youtu.be/GJs8vP1m180?feature=shared

God bless

    Hi! The Annunciation folder on the site has the hymns for the 29th of the Coptic Month, when the Annunciation, Nativity, and Resurrection are commemorated together. This is why some of the hymns (namely Psalm and Gospel responses, Psalm 150, and the conclusion) seem off: they’re for the 3 combined feasts. The Verses of Cymbals and Acts Response are also different, but in those cases the respective hymns from each of the 3 feasts are all said one after another.
