Summary
This paper investigates the content of two manuscripts that belong to two music teachers in the fourth decade of the 19th century. Dimitrios Papadopoulos from Chios, student of the three Teachers, a subscriber (habitant in Bucharest) in Doxastarion of Petros Efesios, and teacher of Psaltic Art, composed Doxastikon and Idiomelon, and wrote them down in the ms so-called "Stichiradoxastikarion." Petros Hagiotaphites, the new Byzantios, 1st Chanter in the Metochion of Holy Sepulchre in Constantinople, composed another collection of Doxastikon and Idiomelon, the so-called "Idiomelarion." Both composers aimed to cover the liturgical needs sufficiently after establishing the New Method (1814) by composing hymns written in the New Method. The paper aims to present these collections' hymns and provide musical morphology elements concerning the compositions, while the collections content is compared with the printed books' compositions.
