Style
Erić's opus includes different genres. Already in his early works he expresses a tendency towards clarity, formal perspicuity and the synthesis of a "different images", establishing the bases of his own musical expression in the choreographic piece for orchestra Behind the Sun's Gate and Concerto for Orchestra and Soloists. The need to shape his musical expression as his own synthesis of total sound surrounding him, already evident in Mirage, is developed by in the compositions Erić wrote about two years later: the ballet Elizabeth the Princess of Montenegro and the choir Subito.

His work during the 80s is marked by three key compositions: Off - as music beyond his own vocabulary until that time, Cartoon - as a play of basic emotional clichés and rudimentary gests of movement and Talea Konzertstück – as a "gliding" towards open sensitivity.

In the 1990s Erić created the five-part cycle Images of Chaos (1990—1997) in which he sharpens and sublimates the principles of his mature musical expression. The cycle contains: The Great Red Spot of Jupiter, The Abnormal Beats of Dogon, Helium in a Small Box, I Have Not Spoken and Oberon Concerto. The modelling of chaos, «a process rather than a state, becoming rather than being», served as a paradigm to Eric's tendencies to create the personal image of a non-transparent and chaotic entity. The music is «processed» through the phases (movements) Unawareness, Resistance, Anger, Wondering and Acceptance which became a general “formal map” of all compositions from the cycle Images of Chaos.

In the same period as the cycle Images of Chaos (from 1989) he started to compose music for theatre and film. Both types of Eric's production, theatre and film music and the "classical" works (from the Chaos cycle as well as his music after 2000 - ''Six Scenes – Comments, Con suono pieno, Who shot a Seagull? Don’t you remember, you shot a seagull! (A. Chekhov), Seven Glances at the Sky, Entr'acte, B’n’R (Blues & Rhythm)''), are specifically amalgamated and mutually imbued by common compositional-technical moves.

Style
Erić's opus includes different genres. Already in his early works he expresses a tendency towards clarity, formal perspicuity and the synthesis of a "different images", establishing the bases of his own musical expression in the choreographic piece for orchestra Behind the Sun's Gate and Concerto for Orchestra and Soloists. The need to shape his musical expression as his own synthesis of total sound surrounding him, already evident in Mirage, is developed by in the compositions Erić wrote about two years later: the ballet Elizabeth the Princess of Montenegro and the choir Subito.

His work during the 80s is marked by three key compositions: Off - as music beyond his own vocabulary until that time, Cartoon - as a play of basic emotional clichés and rudimentary gests of movement and Talea Konzertstück – as a "gliding" towards open sensitivity.

In the 1990s Erić created the five-part cycle Images of Chaos (1990—1997) in which he sharpens and sublimates the principles of his mature musical expression. The cycle contains: The Great Red Spot of Jupiter, The Abnormal Beats of Dogon, Helium in a Small Box, I Have Not Spoken and Oberon Concerto. The modelling of chaos, "a process rather than a state, becoming rather than being", served as a paradigm to Eric's tendencies to create the personal image of a non-transparent and chaotic entity. The music is "processed" through the phases (movements) Unawareness, Resistance, Anger, Wondering and Acceptance which became a general “formal map” of all compositions from the cycle Images of Chaos.

In the same period as the cycle Images of Chaos (from 1989) he started to compose music for theatre and film. Both types of Eric's production, theatre and film music and the "classical" works (from the Chaos cycle as well as his music after 2000 - ''Six Scenes – Comments, Con suono pieno, Who shot a Seagull? Don’t you remember, you shot a seagull! (A. Chekhov), Seven Glances at the Sky, Entr'acte, B’n’R (Blues & Rhythm)''), are specifically amalgamated and mutually imbued by common compositional-technical moves.
