Summary/Abstract: This article observes fundamental problems linked to the liturgical, musical and hymnographical tradition of Saints Cyril and Methodius, as they have reflected in a number of musical and hymnographical codices. An analysis is undertaken of the most important medieval theological and liturgical evidences from the 9th to the 12th centuries when the liturgical practice of the Eastern Slavs became established as part of the practice of the Byzantine Church. It was time when the new liturgical language-the Old-Bulgarian evolved and disseminated due to the prestige of the Holy brothers Saints Cyril and Methodius and their disciples.
