Summary/Abstract: Totaling a considerable number of titles (standalone works or cycles), the choral creation of the Cluj composer Adrian Pop is representative both in terms of the frequency with which the genre has been approached throughout his entire creative activity (started in the '70s), but especially through the various sources of inspiration – Romanian or universal folklore, and poetic lyricism – particularly German and Italian. The way these tendencies are highlighted in musical terms defines a strongly individualized compositional style, situated at the intersection of tradition and modernity, which makes full use of the resources of choral ensembles in a refined manner, and whose finality lies in highlighting the meanings of the supporting text – folkloric or lyrical.
