Abstract

Cantabo Domino, by Ivan Lukačić, a late Renaissance and early Baroque Croatian composer from Šibenik, is one of Croatian vocal heritage's most performed baroque monodic motets. Thus, the listener has an opportunity to find a lot of different performances recorded in the last decades. With the popularization of historically informed performance practice that began to flourish in the mid-80s of the last century, it became popular and desirable to recreate the authenticity of the sound of the Baroque period. This paper analyzes the differences in interpretation that occur with the development of historically informed performance practice and the freedoms and limitations it offers. The challenges for a modern-day singer and problems that may occur in the process of learning and artistic development are also noted. In conclusion, the idea of the secular esthetic value of sacred music is further confirmed, which, with its abundance in the Baroque period of Croatian history, enables the strengthening and confirmation of Croatian cultural heritage in the European context.
