Agni Parthene, in Arabic عذراءُ يا أمَ الإله and in Greek, Ἁγνὴ Παρθένε, means "O Pure Virgin". It is a Greek Marian hymn composed by St. Nectarios of Aegina in the late 19th century.

The Byzantine hymn is composed of 3 tunes with their respective 3 responses. In total, It has 4 verses. I played here 2 verses only. In the first verse, I chose the original notation with a small variation in the second response of Tune B(Slavonic: D minor instead of D major). In the second verse, I changed the ending of Tune A twice (b flat note instead of b) and Tune C as some interpreters do, and added some melodic decorations. Hope you enjoy it.

For the ones interested in music sheet, I only have the basic notations with the chords. It’s too difficult to write a tutorial because there’s a lot things going inside the song (ornaments, hammer on and pull offs, slides...).

The music sheet I used basically is [ Ссылка ]
I've changed the key to Am and used a Capo on fret 2. Also, I've added an Intro and an Outro.
