In its focus are the solo song Pjesma u zoru by Milan Prebanda, Otvori u noć vrata by Vlado Milošević, Sappho by Nada Ludvig Pečar and The impact of the analogue synthesizer by Dino Rešidbegović. Analysis of the relationship between text and music in these works points out to the compositionaltechnical manner characteristic for these composers, generally marked by: Milošević consistently holds on to a text quantitative and qualitative characteristics, Prebanda raises melody above all the expressive characteristics, Ludvig Pečar holds to neoclassicist formal patterns, while Rešidbegović partly disposes the authority of vocal expressiveness to an interpretant.
