Authoress of church songs in Romanian monachism (19th-20th centuries). The stylistic, semantic and hermeneutical analysis the Religious Service of the Mother's of God Omophor, composed by the nun Epiharia Moisescu

Abstract

Godliness to the Mother of God has always had impressive dimensions. She is present in personal prayers, in the liturgical space of the Church, in the works of the Holy Fathers, in iconography, but the most important place in which we find it, is the heart of every faithful. In her heart she carried it for years, all her life, the nun Epiharia Moisescu. With all the knowledge gained from learning psaltic music, most of the works created were dedicated to the Mother of God: Religious Service of the Omophor, the Grivance and the Religious Service of Death of the Mother of God. The present work refers only to one of these works: Religious Service of the Mother's of God Omophor analyzed from a stylistic, semantic and hermeneutic point of view. The whole analysis puts it at the service of highlighting the Romanian school of psaltic music that developed and perfected, revealing the love of God interwoven with the love for music of those who later became personalities of the history of the Romanian psaltic music.
