About Digital Chant Stand

The GOA DCS (Digital Chant Stand) app for iPhone and iPad gives you access to a growing library of free online Orthodox Christian liturgical texts and music. It brings together available texts, musical scores and audio recordings of hymns and entire services, to facilitate learning, preparation, and performance in church.

All content and functionality is available at no cost.

You will need to be online to download the DCS materials.

AGES DCS is the evolution of eMatins, previously produced and offered by Fr. Seraphim Dedes. You can print PDF booklets of services as well as individual scores directly from your iPad.

This public version of AGES DCS is offered for free and as is. The translations, rubrics, Greek and English texts are for the purposes of worship only and are subject to change without notice and should not be construed as a commitment by the authors, translators, developers, and personnel associated with their publication. Every effort has been made to make the materials as complete and as accurate as possible, but no warranty of fitness is implied.

For information about other versions of AGES DCS and the inclusion of different texts and music, contact AGES Initiatives.

AGES Initiatives envisions all Orthodox Christian churches having the texts, music and trained singers needed to maintain the fullest possible liturgical life.

Revolutionary, But Getting Worse

The Good: We have to acknowledge DCS is revolutionary and has changed the service landscape in America. They must be commended for this. I hope it will encourage people to learn the services rather than simply becoming a permanent crutch, but that’s not on them. The Bad: The translations are constantly changing and getting progressively worse. Many are to the point of comedy at this point and every chanter talks about it. Moreover, since Ages was subsumed under the GOA, the order and wording of services can be and has been changed at will. This is not a healthy precedent if we become reliant on the DCS tool. This app has been and continues to be glitchy, though I am sure that will improve with time. Recommendation: Use Ages as an outline if you need it but sub the English text for HTM books, which will not change.
