thoy I am deeply in love with this byzantine version

Must say that serbian has some nice unique melody
Deeply touching the spirit when a man has first experience in the Church
Serbian 1st and 8th tone are similar with byzantine
And 4th tone is very popular and chanted

Serbian folk chant is bizarre and disturbing! At least for me!

This so-called "Serbian Church Folk Chantig" is just a result of pseudomorphosis of the Byzantine /i.e. Offical Eastern Orthdox Church/ chanting tradition. Period.
