Summary/Abstract: Stojan Stojkov (born in the village of Podaresh, Radovish on 17.10.1941) is one of the most eminent Macedonian music artists. His compositional opus encompasses works of different genres that primarily derive from Macedonian folklore and spiritual tradition. The purpose of this paper is to explain the author’s approach to syllables in polyphony, one of the basic traditional principles of the organization of musical material. In particular, the study is aimed at determining the type, manner and extent of polyphony used in the works created by Stojan Stojkov in the period from 1960 to 1980. For this purpose, a corpus was compiled of the available works (scores and recordings) from the author’s opus during the period of twenty years. The following are taken into consideration: original works, works that represent folklore reproductions and music for children. The analysis of the works is done according to the standard procedures used in the analysis of polyphonic works.
