George Rhaedestenos II (Greek: ''Γεώργιος Ραιδεστηνός Β΄; Georgios Rhaedestenos II''; 1833 in Rhaedestus – 1889 in Constantinople) was acting Lambadarios of The Great Church of Christ, when Stephen the Lambadarios was old and weak. He was an unimmitable performer of psaltic art, and second to none of his contemporary cantors; he was especially renowned for his ancient-like patriarchal chanting style. == Biography == He was born in 1833 at Rhaedestus,〔Rhaedestus: current name Tekirdağ (Turkish: Tekirdağ).〕 where his first learned music; but later became proficient in Constantinople by the Archcantor of the Great Church Constantine Byzantios, at the proposal of the retired in Antigone former Patriarch of Constantinople Constantine I from Sinai.〔Before being elected Patriarch was Archbishop of Sinai.〕 He served as a cantor in various churches of the Archbishopric of Constantinople. In 1863, under Patriarch Sophronios III,〔According to source of Apostoliki Diakonia, Patriarch was Sophronius II of Amasya, but according to the List of the Ecumenical Patriarchate, Patriarch in 1863 was Sophronius III.〕 he was made Lambadarios of the Great Church, when Archcantor was John Byzantios. On 2 February 1871, under the patriarchy of Gregory VI, he became Archcantor in succession of Savrakes Gregoriades. He stayed at this service until 1875. In October 1876, he retired from the patriarchate and lead the choir of the church of St John of Chios in Galata, of St. Nicholas and the Saviour Christ, the church of the Holy Trinity at Peran, and towards the end of his life in the church of St. Nicholas at Tzivali. For four years (1880 to 1884), he presided over the Hellenic Musical Association, which was based in Galata, and directed and taught at this Musical School (1882). He had few, but distinguished students. He died at Constantinople in August 1889. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「George Rhaedestenos II」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
