Summary/Abstract: The paper presents chants from the church repertoire of the Eastern Rite Catholic Church in Bulgaria, related to two contemporary manifestations of sanctity: one is Our Lady’s Sanctuary in Malko Tarnovo and the other – the Feast day of the Bulgarian blessed martyrs Evgenii, Kamen, Pavel, Josafat. It focuses on the distinct singing originality of these chants that has been formed in the continuity of the active musical life of the church community, as well as in the complex process of cultural interactions between the Orthodox and Catholic tradition in Bulgaria. The chants, dedicated to contemporary holy images and places and formed within the tradition of the Eastern Rite Catholic Church in Bulgaria, are part of the national Bulgarian spiritual and cultural reality as well. They present evidence of the everlasting ray of sanctity running through our modern troubled world.
