Abstract

The current study investigates the role and function that different types of music (church, secular, classical, popular, folk) may have in the life of people, both secular and monastic. The Christian teaching preserved in its most complete form in the orthodox Church is the light in which the viewpoints of a large number of theologians, historians, music theorists and music practitioners are considered. thus the approach adopted is multi-disciplinary, whilst the angle from which it is operated is practico-creative, i.e. through the conception of the world of the performer of music and not of its composer or theoretician.
