Welcome to my Trope Page. Here you will find the sound files and assignments for Congregation Beth Shalom’s Trope Class and reference pages for ANYONE interested in either learning or refreshing their knowledge of Biblical cantillation (otherwise known as Trope or T’amim).
If you are a Bar or Bat Mitzvah student, mazal tov and b’hatzlacha (good luck) on your journey. It is the beginning of your bar or bat mitzvah preparation. Come back weekly to get new assignments and listen to the files, which correspond to your Red workbook.
