DE Milos Bok; sacred music; Czech music; late Romanticism
AB Church music - music with religious content - entered its new development period in the Czech lands after year 1989. One of its representatives is Milos Bok (born in 1968). The compositional speech of Milos Bok is based on late Romantic foundations. His work is particularly inspired by his strong belief in God, Great Composers of the past and his relationship with nature. His most important works include three Masses, the Credo and the trilogy of Oratorios. The oratorio Apokalypsa v Kamenicke strani (Apocalypse on the Slopes of Kamenice) has become the most performed work of 2017.
