CORNEL GIVULESCU – PARTICULARITIES OF THE MUSICAL WORK. RECOVERY OF UNKNOWN MANUSCRIPTS

Summary/Abstract: Personality of Romanian music, teacher, composer, harmonizer and conductor, Cornel Givulescu combines very well elements of classical Western harmonization (see I.H Bach chorales) with techniques specific to Byzantine music (simple, double ison, chords without a third, melismas being more blurred, conjunctural (passing) chords. From liturgical scores, from Liturgies for male and mixed choirs, to texts from the New Testament, to hymns and chants at Holy Easter and the communion of the faithful, from harmonized texts of carols to in the scores of the Chapel and the Oratorio "Golgotha", from the funeral scores, to those of the church voices and to the secular scores, the originality and the harmonic and chromatic contribution are evident in each staff. Always Givulescu brings his personal contribution by processing songs, composing others.
