Cantoral studies

French translation: études de chantre

English term or phrase: Cantoral studies
Hi,

I am looking to translate cantoral studies, knowing that the cantor is similar to a deacon in the Catholic church. He tends to the congregation, but he isn’t a rabbi. He also sings liturgical music and leads prayer in a synagogue.

Thanks for your help :)

French translation:études de chantre
Explanation:
Cantoral partage clairement son origine avec l'italien cantare par exemple. La Bible, pour les chants liturgiques du temps de David par exemple et des services religieux en général, utilise le mot chantre.

disagree  Chloe Sussan-Molson: Le terme d'"études de chantre" n'est pas utilisé dans les communautés juives francophones, on parlera plus d'une "formation pour devenir hazan" ou "d'études de chant cantorial"
