Summary/Abstract: The structural analysis of the musical work aims to analytically present, under a personal vision, the stylistic, form, harmonic-modal structure, contrapuntal thinking peculiarities that the composer Sabin V. Drăgoi knew how to develop in an unmistakable personal manner. As I have mentioned in other scientific meetings, I aim to present the full Rustic Divertimento through a series of stylistic and musicological aspects as complex as possible. The second carol (Star Song), entitled Under the Red Sunrise, is included in the first folklore collections made by Sabin V. Drăgoi in the winter of 1922-1923 in Lipova, Ilteu and Lejnic, being included in the emblematic volume 303 Carols with Text and Melody published in 1925. Since then, the volume has been reprinted and reintegrated into the national bibliography for the first time in 2024 through the efforts initiated by the undersigned and included like other reference volumes of Banat folklorists in the Banat Collection of Ethnomusicological Restitution.
