Use the recordings below to learn how to chant Esther ta'am (trop) model tunes for GEresh phrases according to the tradition established in "Chanting the Hebrew Bible" by Joshua Jacobson.

Some people say azLA, instead of GEresh.
A word punctuated with a t'liSHAH‑k'taNAH is always followed by a word punctuated with a kadMA (see #54, #54a).
When a word punctuated with a t'liSHAH‑k'taNAH is not accented on the last syllable, a second t'liSHAH‑k'taNAH is placed over the first letter of the accented syllable.
