Summary/Abstract: The Messianic model of prayer uttered on the Mount of Olives, which has become a standard for the entire treasury of the later church, is our interdisciplinary research today. Given that it was uttered by Jesus Christ himself, it becomes relevant to any believer who wants his daily life to be in continual communion with God. In the liturgical richness of the Christian church of all times, the Lord’s Prayer (Our Father) is an integral part of any time of the day, morning, noon, or evening, because it represents the quintessence of the key words that every Christian visionary must have in his vocabulary. daily. In the following I have prepared research meant to attract the musician or theologian, or the contemporary scientist in the pragmatization of the manipulative requests contained in this grandiose prayer. Thus, we combined theological research with musicological research in an exceptional composition from the old Romanian space. In the history of the local culture and civilization, famous names have remained that have shaped the Romanian academic space from all times. One of these names of scientific relevance was Ciprian Porumbescu. Endowed natively with hard work, he succeeds and confirms over time his passage through time. A plurivalent musician, but also a poet and essayist, he manages to imprint in the history of the second half of the 19th century a unique perspective on the religious and folkloric and patriotic treasure of Bucovina. All this treasure is haloed by its vast improvement in Chernivtsi and Vienna, inscribing itself in the memory of the musical times of the end of the 19th century both far from the native places and especially capitalizing on them with their whole load of centuries in a vision. unique, complex, representative musician of Romanian choral music.
