Abstract

Three Kyries from the Masses by Janez Krstnik Dolar (1621–1673) prove the clarity of the composer's creative process and profound grammar of music. Its frame is a distinct late-Renaissance fugue, the subject of which is based on the complex musical mode of thought of the period, in a musical language that is being freed from the old ramified world of hexachords but is in its thinking still firmly grounded in traditional modality.
