476 Nino Naneishvili In the first heirmos – the interval octave in the plain mode, in the ornamented – fourteenth. In the third heirmos – in the plain mode the seventh interval, in the ornamented – thirteenth. In the fourth heirmos – in the plain mode the seventh interval, in the ornamented – fourteenth. In the fifth heirmos – in the plain mode the seventh interval, in the ornamented – thirteenth. In the sixth heirmos – in the plain mode the interval – an octave, in the ornamented – thirteenth. In the seventh heirmos – in the plain mode the interval – an octave, in the ornamented – thirteenth. In the eighth heirmos – in the plain mode – the sixth, in the ornamented – fourteenth. In the ninth heirmos – in the plain mode – the sixth interval, in the ornamented – thirteenth. For the present I shall dwell on the analysis of the formulas of the heirmos melody.
Ornamented Structural Formulas in the Easter Heirmoses 477 It is these three types of ornamentation that occur in the samples of the ornamented mode of Gelati School which I have touched upon. A number of stereotypical structural units (with deviations from the chant mode) stand out sharply in the Easter heirmoses, which prove that the ornamentations of this type are characteristic not only of troparia but of the heirmos genre as well.

Ornamented Structural Formulas in the Easter Heirmoses<br />
477<br />
It is these three types of ornamentati<strong>on</strong> that occur in the samples of the ornamented mode of Gelati School<br />
which I have touched up<strong>on</strong>.<br />
A number of stereotypical structural units (with deviati<strong>on</strong>s from the chant mode) stand out sharply in the<br />
Easter heirmoses, which prove that the ornamentati<strong>on</strong>s of this type are characteristic not <strong>on</strong>ly of troparia but of<br />
the heirmos genre as well. <str<strong>on</strong>g>The</str<strong>on</strong>g>refore in spite of the changeable nature and improvisati<strong>on</strong> of the ornamentati<strong>on</strong>,<br />
the emergence of their stereotypical formulas seems to have been a characteristic feature of Georgian<br />
ecclesiastic hymns of various genres.<br />
Notes<br />
1 (from the editors) An alternative view <strong>on</strong> this subject see in Shugliashvili paper in 2004 symposium materials “Some Peculiarities<br />
of Chanting Traditi<strong>on</strong>s from Eastern Georgia”<br />
2 As it is usually known, in the twelfth-thirteenth centuries there was the so-called K<strong>on</strong>daki<strong>on</strong> chanting of the melismatic-virtuoso<br />
style, which was written down in K<strong>on</strong>daki<strong>on</strong>s by means of special two-line Kodraki<strong>on</strong> notati<strong>on</strong>. <str<strong>on</strong>g>The</str<strong>on</strong>g> primary source of Russian<br />
K<strong>on</strong>daki<strong>on</strong>s is the Byzantine Psaltic<strong>on</strong> – a collecti<strong>on</strong> of melismatic-virtuoso hymns, i.e. in Byzantium the virtuoso-melismatic style<br />
of chanting was in popular use beginning from earlier centuries, it was so widespread that at this period special collecti<strong>on</strong>s of the<br />
hymns were even created about the. tenth-eleventh centuries (Oniani, 2009:3)<br />
3 As D. Shughliashvili notes, the diversity of Georgian chanting schools is based <strong>on</strong> the individual character of ornamentati<strong>on</strong>. It is<br />
clear that it c<strong>on</strong>cerns both the top, can<strong>on</strong>ic voice and the types of voice harm<strong>on</strong>izing (Shughliashvili, 2006: 11)<br />
4 <str<strong>on</strong>g>The</str<strong>on</strong>g> stereotype character of the improvised variants of the troparia of the ornamented mode and of movement formulas are dealt<br />
with in M. Sukhiashvili’s dissertati<strong>on</strong> (Sukhiashvili, 2006: 83)<br />
