How to learn cantorial Jewish singing?

I was born female and grew up going to an orthodox Jewish synagogue that I am still part of, so never got to learn how to sing from the torah like other boys my age , and I highly doubt my rabbi or Chazan would allow me to learn. I’m currently not able to move to a reform synagogue although I plan to in the future

This is something I have always wanted to learn to do, and now being a professional adult musician it is something I am especially keen to finally learn. Ive not been able to find any good guides online on how to start for beginners, any websites or videos or books I can buy would be much appreciated.

I’m specifically interested in the musical function of the different tropes rather than their grammatical function however any guides would help regardless

I can read Biblical Hebrew and sheet music just fine if that helps …
