In my attempt to codify papadic formulae, I would like to include formulae from genuine Romanian cherubic hymns. What I mean by "genuine" is not Romanian adaptations of a Greek cherubic hymn (which was done quite frequently in the 19th century) but a cherubic hymn that was composed specifically for the Romanian text. All I have are several by Anton Pann, but I'm sure there must be several others that were published, considering how strong Byzantine chant was in the 19th century in Romania. By the way, I'm not interested in 20th-century compositions, though, because I have already seen several, and evidently the quality of compositions declined in 20th-century Romania (as it did in Greece).
Does anyone have any they could share with me?
Thank you.
