S. Sebastian Ottaplackal: "It all started with Qandisa Alaha"

Hilton Convention Center, Houston, Texas. Friday, August 2, 2019.

We are proud to present a resourceful young man, S. Sebastian Ottaplackal, who is primarily a music educator, but also a seeker of the Syriac heritage of his forefathers. Our meeting at the Syro Malabar Convention in Houston, Texas, was one of the best things that happened to me. Sebastian helped the Syro Malabar Choir for the Convention by preparing computer printout of scores. He has granted us permission to post those scores in staff notation on our web site. That will be a precious addition to our Encyclopedia of Syriac chants. Sebastian's interest in Syriac chants was ignited by watching the video of Qandisa Alaha at the National Shrine, Wahington, D. C. (Aramaic Project-66 ). I was happy to learn that the event in D. C. became the beginning of a new chapter in the history of the East Syriac language and music in the USA. Sebastian is willing to collaborate with us by transcribing Syriac melodies in staff notation. This will add a new dimension to the Aramaic Project. Syro Malabar choirs across the world can make use of them freely. We are grateful to Sebastian for providing this free service. Such individuals as Sebastian with varied talents in music is a rarity,. May God bless him to realize his dreams. Reference: SebastianMusic.org
