Summary/Abstract: The composer, theorist, and professor Dan Buciu (1943-2025) was one of the great promoters of Romanian choral music, whose course he shaped both as a creator and as a leader of national choral associations. As a professor of harmony, Dan Buciu was able to experiment like no one else with the choral language, the analysis of which occupied him throughout his life: both in the tonal and modal realms. His collection of choral works was published by the Music Publishing House of the Union of Composers and Musicologists of Romania in 1993, the pieces being selected by the author himself from among the most significant. As an important gesture of general analysis, we will attempt to extract some of his creative principles from one of the works that define him.
