Abstract

The two types of themes in the secular choral music of Dobri Hristov – with a folklore character and in common tone, determine the specifics of the approach of the composer in the major compositions developed on their basis. Comparing the specific features of the harmonious language, the polyphonic methods and the structural solutions in the two types of works, we acquire a good idea of the complete image of this major part of the musical heritage of the composer.
