The purpose of the study is to understand an essential component of the lyrical-song world of B. Yanivskyi's works as an archetypal national musical index of the Ukrainian spiritual poetics of expression. The research methodology is based on an intonation approach in understanding the nature of music in its genetic relationship with the word, as found in the hermeneutic musicological analysis of B. Asafiev's followers in Ukraine - in the works of D. Androsova, N. Kadantseva, O. Kozarenko, O. Markova, O. Muravska, and others. The methods of historical-biographical, hermeneutical, stylistic and comparative analysis are widely used in the work. The scientific novelty is that for the first time in the practice of Ukrainian musicology, the songs of B. Yanivskyi were examined in the accepted concept of madrigal-canto expressiveness of singing, and thus a clarification regarding the positions of the Ukrainian Biedermeier of the 20th century, adopted in the works of O. Kozarenko, was introduced into the scientific circulation in the national indexing of this kind of creativity. Conclusions. The songs "Don't Forget", "Red Viburnum, Why Are You Bending over in the Meadow?", "Cherry Vikhola", "Be Happy, Sister", showing the quintessence of B. Yanivskyi's song folklorism, show affinity with the themes and style of the bardic song in the terms of the ethically and acutely expressed idea of memory of the heart, loyalty, and generosity of soul. At the same time, the composer combined the principle of bardic confession with the national song-lyrical tradition of canto-madrigal singing, in which, as in spiritual compositions, the text from the first person is presented in an ensemble hypostasis, thus testifying to the tangentiality of the small form to the heights of spiritual lyrics - in the spirit of Biedermeier of the 20th century.
Keywords: song quality, canto-madrigal culture, lyricism, spiritual lyrics, style in music, musical genre.
