БЪЛГАРСКИЯТ ЦЪРКОВЕН ЕДНОГЛАС В КОНТЕКСТА НА МОНОДИЙНИТЕ ТРАДИЦИИ – ВЪПРОСЪТ ЗА НЕГОВИЯ ПРОИЗХОД И КУЛТУРНА ПРИНАДЛЕЖНОСТ
THE BULGARIAN CHURCH CHANTING IN THE CONTEXT OF THE MONODIC TRADITIONS – THE ISSUE OF ITS ORIGIN AND CULTURAL BELONGING

Summary/Abstract: As a strategic pedagogical task for our musical education, this text examines the centuries-old and traditional for the Bulgarians monodic church singing. The study traces the evolution of the monody in its various national and ethnic manifestations, in order to reach the monodic church singing in our country. Furhuremore, without focusing on its presence in the Bulgarian school, it offers a methodological solution for two of the most troubling issues for our national consciousness – the questions of its origin and its cultural affiliation. Both pedagogicaly and aesthetically, unequivocally affects its evaluation and perception. As a most important prerequisite for the decision would be the general acquaintance with the main monodic traditions, with which our church chanting inevitably was in connection during the centerues. Regardless of the "ethnic" conclusion that these studies reach, they unequivocally testify to a single eastern affiliation of the singing. The text aims to support this derivation and to proof a common eastern origin and cultural affiliation of the considered monody, in a conceivable parallel with the common eastern origin of our monody folk singing.
