Църковна музика и хармония (върху примери от творчеството на Добри Христов)
Church Music and Harmony (on Examples from the Work of Dobri Hristov)

Summary/Abstract: The text addresses the issue of harmony in Dobri Hristov’s church music. The study presents and maintains Christina Yapova’s thesis that the method of musical analysis cannot reach the supersensible religious experience, which is the meaning of church musical inclusion. The development offers an author’s solution to this methodological problem and seeks to answer the question of which characteristics of the sensory musical layer manifest the pure church musical style. By comparison, the harmonious approaches of Dobri Hristov to the polyphonic meaning of folk songs and church melodies are examined. The answer to the question posed is found in the modal type of harmony, which is the musical expression of staying in the prayer service.
