Abstract
This article deals with the spiritual cantata “Reverend Hegumen Savva” by Georgy Petrovich Dmitriev, which was written in eight parts for deacon reading and male choir a cappella. The cantata, characterised by a hagiographic theme, belongs to non-liturgical spiritual music. The main objective of our research is the identifi cation of topoi or “common places” in vitae of monks and founders of monasteries, occurring in the cantata, as well as the study of how these topoi were further developed and refl ected.
