Tropar
Tropar (troparion) - one of the musical forms of the Byzantine rite, used in the Orthodox Churches and in the Catholic Churches of the Eastern Byzantine tradition. It is a poetic liturgical song with a simple structure and a rhythmic cadence, which brings us closer to the history and meaning of soteriology of a given feast, event or saint.
One of the most famous troparios is the Passover troparion.
Tropics appeared in the liturgy in the 5th century as a development of the poorer Psalmody. Short, rhymed lyrics, tracks kept in the same as psalm of melody or in a separate melodic character were introduced. Their construction was based on the rhyme and the rhythm of the rhymes. Over time, the tropics of non-vowel verses began to be formed, probably for musical reasons. Tropics were sung in hours, between Gospel lessons or at their end. They were the equivalent of the Latin antiphon. Linking the tropics to a larger whole has led to the emergence of condors at the end of the fifth century. Bibliography
