Re: trop--2nd footnote

[Robert Cohen <rlcm17...>]

I should have added, in re an ambiguity in Bob's post:  There is no 
received/handed-down (i.e., tradition of) trop/trope or chant for a number 
of books of the Tanach, or Hebrew Bible.  When there *is* an established 
chant, it is indeed referred to as "trop/trope." -- rlc
