Abstract:

The article examines the adaptation principles of Ukrainian folklore material used by an outstanding representative of the Polish-Ukrainian branch of the musical culture of Kharkov at the turn of the XIX – XX centuries. For the analysis, a collection-cycle was selected, compiled by the author himself on the basis of adaptations of the songs used in the operetta “Oi Bozhe shcho ta liubov zmozhe!” for the libretto by A. Zbukireva, staged by M. Kropyvnytsky, one of the founders of the Ukrainian national theater. Several groups of adaptations are outlined and classified, representing the portraits of the characters of the operetta, as well as the stage situations. Generalizing characteristics of the texture-stylistic approaches used by K. Gorski in the piano parts, prefixed to each of the 20 songs, are given. It is noted that K. Gorski not only demonstrates professional mastery of adaptation techniques approved in classical music, but also translates features of Ukrainian folk polyphony into texture and harmony, which gives his adaptation an individualized charm.

Abstract:

В статье рассматривается специфика бытования музыкального фольклора теленгитов селения Язула Улаганского района Республики Алтай в условиях транзитивности (по материалам полевых исследований 2003 и 2019 гг.). Музыкальный фольклор теленгитов обособленного селения характеризуется полистадиальностью, «вероятностной» (поливекторной, нелинейно меняющейся) природой развития, увеличением культурного разнообразия и трансформацией моноязычной культурной среды в многоязычную в лингвистическом, музыкальном и бытовом планах. Каналами инокультурного влияния на интонационное поле теленгитской музыкальной традиции сегодня выступают радио, Интернет и телевидение, сельский клуб, доступная транспортная связь с городом, международные курултаи сказителей . При расширении сферы бытования различных форм фольклоризма (советского, российского, алтайского) песенная фольклорная традиция теленгитов продолжает существовать исключительно в обрядовом контексте (закрыто от глаз приезжих). Владение каем - особым типом интонирования, характерным для тюрков Горного Алтая, маркирующим их этнокультурную идентичность, - востребовано сегодня со стороны туристов, региональной администрации и общественности, что ведет к миграции носителей этой традиции из обособленных селений в центральные. Трансформация искусства кая обусловлена единым процессом глобализации/глокализации, переходом от традиционного контекста бытования к сценическому фольклоризму, проникновением инокультурных интонационных форм в звуковой ландшафт теленгитских селений. This article focuses on the current state of Telengit music culture in Yazula Village (Ulagan Region, Republic of Altai) in conditions of transitivity. The material presented is based on field studies in 2003 and 2019. The Telengit musical folklore of this territorially isolated village is characterized by polystadiality; the “probabilistic,” non-linear nature of its development; by an increase of cultural diversity; and by the transformation of a monolingual environment into a multi-lingual one in linguistic, musical and ontological terms. Channels for outside cultural influence on the intonational field of the Telengit musical tradition include: radio, television, the Internet, the local club, transportation to the city; and International Kurultai of storytellers. In the presence of different forms of folklore (Soviet, Russian, Altaian) performed in the village club, the village folksong tradition continues to live on exclusively in a ritual context (inaccessible to outsiders). The mastery of kai as a specific type of intonation, typical for the Turks of Gorny Altai, that marks their ethnocultural identity, is in demand today by tourists, regional administrations and the public. This leads to the migration of carriers of this tradition out of isolated settlements into more central ones. The transformation of the art of kai in modern Telengit culture is conditioned by the process of globalization/glocalization; by the change of kai’s function in a traditional context to that of staged folklorism; and by the penetration of other cultural intonational forms into the soundscape of Telengit villages.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the definition of the synthesis of arts in Serge Diaghilev's seasons as a dialogue of cultures. In contrast to the interpretation of the dialogue of cultures as a sociological phenomenon, which has become a truism, when the dialogue of cultures in the Diaghilev's seasons is seen as a dialogue of French and Russian cultures, it is provided the interpretation of the dialogue of cultures in a work of art. In particular, in Ihor Stravinsky's "Sacred Spring" staged by Waclaw Nizynski, scenography by Nikolay Rerich, there is a dialogue between pagan and Christian cultures as a synthetic choreographic and musical image. Rerich's scenery introduces another cultural allusion - images of the East. The philosophical meaning of interpretation is the ideological definition of synthetic artistic image as a cultural dialogue. Theoretical works and memoirs of I. Stravinsky and S. Lifar testify that there was a certain school of growth in the stage space of the Seasons. Young people quickly became leading dancers, and then created their own choreographic school – "cubist" in Bronislawa and Waclaw Nizynski, "media" – in Lifar. I. Stravinsky became the founder of a new type of synthetic-type scenicism, where the musicality and picturesqueness of plastic exercises turned into large canvases of various genres – folklore, impressionist, expressionist counterpoint. The philosophy of modern art education in the field of music, choreography and vocal creativity encourages the cultural and historical reconstruction of the experience of leading artists who created unsurpassed masterpieces of European culture in the early twentieth century.

Abstract:

Introduction. The given article is devoted to study of the Ukrainian ballet continuing to produce new ways of implementation of the ideas and artistic images in the beginning of the XXI century. The production of the ballet “Peer Gynt” on the music by E. Grieg, done by People’s artist of Ukraine V. Pisarev for the troupe of Donetsk ‘A. Solovianenko’ Academic State Theatre of Opera and Ballet is a remarkable example of this process. The production’s premiere was on, 1997, May 17, in the framework of the international theatre project “Ukraine – Norway”. Twenty years later, in 2017, the new variant of the ballet has been created for Kharkiv National Opera and Ballet Theatre named after M. V. Lysenko. This “Kharkiv variant” was staged regarding specifics of Kharkiv theatre’s troupe, while retaining the choreographic text of the original; it is marked by scenography and decorations being more spectacular and modern. The work by H. Ibsen received harsh critique from literary scholars who gave plenty of negative reviews of it, and it was E.Grieg’s music that led this poetic drama to wide recognition and popularity it has today. H. Ibsen’s piece became a base for more than the ten of films, directed from 1915 until 2006. As well as E Grieg’s music, which mostly accompanies the theatrical and cinematic interpretations of the drama poem, there are homonymous opera by Werner Egk (1938) and the ballet by John Neumeier, created in a collaboration with A. Schnittke (1987). As a ballet, the “Peer Gynt” is being staged since 1922 up to present day. The object of this research is musically-plastique image of Solveig. The aim of the study is to reveal specifics of musically-plastique, choreographic means, which are used to portray Solveig’s image in V. Pisarev’s production of ballet “Peer Gynt” regarding literary source. The article uses such methods as: 1) historical, allowing to place selected work into the perspective of development of ballet theatre in XXI century; 2) genre approach conditioned by specifics of means of expression used in choreographic art; 3) stylistic, used to regard given ballet in the context of choreographic art. The research results. H. Ibsen elevated the story to the level of philosophical parable about man’s freedom to choose his own path and about the price this freedom comes with. A psychological portrait of the protagonist, wanderer Peer Gynt, combines traits of both humanist and insane. The playwright creates opposition between him and Solveig, majestic in her spiritual martyrdom. According to H. Ibsen’s conception, it is Solveig, being an incarnation of the very best feminine traits, such as chastity, fidelity and kindness, who saves the prodigal soul of the protagonist. In the end of his earthly path, Peer Gynt finally finds what he has been looking for his entire life – self-sacrificial Love, saving him from the eternal suffering near his death. The libretto is written by Yu. Stanishevsky, historian of ballet. The author significantly abridges the text of the dramatic poem, reducing the number of acts from five to two. The First act consists of 4 tableaus, the Second has only two; Yu. Stanishevsky omits several situations in order to make the spectacle more dynamic. The libretto features the image of Solveig only six times: thrice in the First act and thrice in the Second. But despite sporadicity and brevity of Solveig’s presence on the stage, this image plays a leading role in the dramaturgy of the ballet, no less significant than Peer Gynt. Today the poem “Peer Gynt” by H. Ibsen is hardly imaginable without E. Grieg’s music. Its score (op. 23) consisted of 28 numbers , and it included dance intermedia and introduction to every Act; dance fragments, genre scenes, portraits, fantastic episodes and landscape sceneries. Later, the composer compiled the most interesting and self-sufficient numbers into two Suites. Conspicuous Romantic style of the score might be compared to the image of blonde-haired maiden Solveig, who betokens pure femininity. The ballet of V. Pisarev consists of 8 tableaus and 3 numbers. In order to create this ballet spectacle, its author used several types of choreographic art to reveal its idea more profoundly. V. Pisarev embodied the plot of H. Ibsen’s poem using a fusion of classical and neo-classical dance as well as a reconstruction of the folklore-scenic Norwegian dance. Ballet master draws attention to the inner world of a protagonist, who is facing a dilemma: either to remain for fix the situation, or to run away once again. Significance of Solveig’s image is emphasized by the choreographic text of the ballet, as her role becomes a plastique leit-motiv of the whole work. Choreographic lexicon of Solveig is founded upon traditional Classical dance and occasional movements of contemporary dance. Conclusions. The image of Solveig is a demanding one, both technically and psychologically as the ballerina must demonstrate advanced technique and high artistry. Solveig’s dance is plastique, sculpture-like, filled with profound psychologism and elaborated expressiveness. Solveig is one of the most powerful and iconic examples of femininity and self-sacrificial love in romantic art keeping its actuality until today.

Abstract:

В статье на основе переписки Рихарда Штрауса и Гуго фон Гофмансталя, а также других документальных источников подробно освещается сложный и длительный процесс создания оперы «Женщина без тени», от первых набросков либретто (1910) до премьеры в 1919 году. Эта опера, которой оба соавтора придавали огромное значение, может рассматриваться как их совместный opus magnum, которому присущи итоговые черты. Гофмансталь очень долго и тщательно работал над либретто, объединив в нем множество источников, сюжетных мотивов, цитат, отсылок к различным текстам европейской культуры. Созданная им волшебная сказка, изобилующая символами, аллегориями и театральными «чудесами» и вместе с тем заключающая в себе высокую этическую идею, наследует традициям барочного и классицистского театра. Сочиненной на этой основе опере Штрауса также свойствен обобщающий, суммирующий характер. По разнообразию и богатству выразительных средств эта масштабная партитура беспрецедентна для всего предшествующего творчества композитора. Она объединяет в себе как композиционные новации его экспрессионистских опер («Саломея», «Электра»), так и детализированность, камерность письма и новую трактовку голоса, найденные в «Ариадне на Наксосе». Одновременно «Женщина без тени» подводит итог развитию оперного театра начиная с Вагнера. С одной стороны, воздействие Вагнера (и, конкретно, его последней музыкальной драмы «Парсифаль») в штраусовской партитуре несомненно. С другой— «Женщина без тени» венчает развитие жанра «сказочной оперы», который переживал расцвет в немецкоязычных странах после Вагнера и считался плодотворной альтернативой оперной продукции многочисленных вагнеровских подражателей. Штраус и Гофмансталь поднимают «сказочную оперу», расцветшую на непритязательном фольклорном материале, до уровня высоких философско-этических обобщений и тем самым словно возвращают ее к метафизическим вагнеровским первоистокам. Таким образом «Женщина без тени», поставленная уже после Первой мировой войны, становится последней вершиной немецкой романтической оперы, объединяющей ее разнонаправленные тенденции. Building upon the correspondence between Richard Strauss and Hugo von Hofmannsthal, as well as other documentary sources, this paper discusses in detail the complicated and prolonged process of the creation of the opera “Die Frau ohne Schatten”, from the first drafts of the libretto in 1910 to the opera’s first staging in 1919. This opera, considered paramount by both authors, can be regarded as their collective “opus magnum”. Hofmannsthal devoted a lot of time and effort to the libretto, amalgamating numerous sources, literary motifs, quotations, references to various texts of the European culture. As a result, he created a fairy tale abounding with symbols, allegories and theatrical “miracles” and at the same time conveying a profound ethical message, which carries on the tradition of the Baroque and Classicism theatre. The opera composed by Strauss also has a universal, generalizing character. The diversity and exuberance of this grand work is unprecedented for the composer. It combines compositional novelties of his expressionist operas (“Salome”, “Elektra”) with the nuanced, intimate character of music and the innovative treatment of voice discovered in “Ariadne auf Naxos”. At the same time, “Die Frau ohne Schatten” summarizes the development of the opera theatre since Wagner. On the one hand, the influence of Wagner (and, in particular, of his last music drama “Parsifal”) is apparent in Strauss’s composition. On the other hand, “Die Frau ohne Schatten” culminates the development of the genre of Märchenoper, which flourished in German-speaking countries after Wagner and was considered a viable alternative to the opera works of Wagner's numerous imitators. Strauss and Hofmannsthal raise the Märchenoper, which evolved from unpretentious folklore tradition, to the level of philosophical and ethical generalization, as if restoring it to Wagner’s metaphysical origins. Thus, “Die Frau ohne Schatten”, staged in the aftermath of the World War I, becomes the last pinnacle of German Romantic opera, encapsulating the diverse patterns of this genre.

Abstract:

"Romanian ethnomusicology has a series of less discussed and, implicitly, less understood topics. One of them is the relatively vast literature that addresses the new folklore that appeared after the installation of the communist regime and the folk music of artistic ensembles performed on stage. Most of the texts written on these subjects display a strong political and ideological pressure. Consequently, they are either forgotten or superficially perceived as evidence of a repressive regime, adding to the general belief that the communist regime turned peasant art into an instrument of propaganda. Starting from a study signed by Ioan R. Nicola on music collected from Mărginimea Sibiului, we will try to understand the theoretical horizon and the ideological limitations that influenced the way researchers wrote about contemporary music phenomena in the second half of the twentieth century. Despite the constraints, we argue that ethnomusicologists had at hand a coherent system of analysis of the folk music, which they had to adapt to the official ideology. Keywords: new folklore, amateur artistic ensembles, folk performance, ethnomusicologic research, communist ideology"

Abstract:

The article considers the impact of globalisation and national revival processes on the development of electronic music in Ukraine. It is shown that in the early stages of development (the late 1990s – early 2000s) Ukrainian electronic music is dominated by the focus on Western European music culture, and early festivals of dance electronic music (“The Republic of Kazantip”, “Ultrasonic”) also borrow Russian traditions, which indicates the predominance of globalization and peripheral tendencies in this area. At the same time, the first creative searches related to the combination of electronic sounds with the sounds of Ukrainian folklore are intensified. In particular, the article considers the works of the 2000s-2010s by O. Nesterov and A. Zahaikevych, representing folk electronics in the academic sphere, and works by Katya Chilly, Stelsi, Kind of Zero representing folk electronics in non-academic music. The aesthetic basis of such combinations was the musical neo-folklore of the last third of the XX century and the achievements of folk rock in the late 1990s. Intensification of these searches in the late 2010s, in particular the popularity of such artists as Ruslana, Onuka, Go_A allow us to talk about intensifying the national revival processes in the musical culture of Ukraine and involving Ukrainian music in the world culture preserving its national identity.

The musical and stage performance “We will sow the Golden Stone” is an example of embodiment the idea of united Ukraine, which was preserving its actuality during the all history of the country. Hanna Havrylets is an artistic figure, whose creative work unites Western and Eastern Ukraine. She was born in Galicia, studied and worked in the capital city. Her music reached Eastern Ukraine, where the artist’s choral works are performed by almost every choir group and where they have become the favorite among performers and listeners. Concerning choirs of Kharkiv region, we should mention the Chamber Choir named after Viacheslav Palkin of Kharkiv Regional Philharmonic Society, the Opera Studio Choir and the Student Choir of Kharkiv National University of Arts named after Ivan Petrovych Kotliarevsky, the Student Choir of Kharkiv State Academy of Culture. Research aims and methods. We tried to identify Hanna Havrylets’ choral works’ characteristic features, which are a symbol of the nation’s unity in the contemporary Ukrainian musical space, as well as some religious, philosophical and traditional folk features of the national identity, which perform the unifying function in the Ukrainian musical art. Research results. The features of H. Havrylets’ works that connect the cultural poles became a religious orientation (appeal to the Orthodox tradition), reliance on folklore and national historical and cultural traditions, which, combined with professional skills and composer talent, allowed her to create unique creative projects. One of such projects is the musical stage performance “We will sow the Golden Stone” (1997). The work was created for the People’s Artist of Ukraine Nina Matviyenko (soloist), a choir of boys and a symphony orchestra, the author of the poems is Sofiya Maidanska. Its uniqueness is in the fact that it combines almost all the genres of Ukrainian folk music in one piece united by the only idea of covering all the milestones of Ukrainian history starting from the World Creation and up to the present days. The artistic method of synthesizing musical and stage performance has a multi-level manifestation. Synthesis of art types (music, fine arts, choreography and theater) is supplemented with synthesis of styles, genres, and contents. H. Havrylets skillfully combines peculiarities of artistic thinking, characteristic of Ukrainian folklore, with contemporary composer vision; also the folkloric manner of singing – with the academic. Having considered the musical and stage performance “We will sow the Golden Stone” by H. Havrylets, we found common for Ukrainian culture and art features, which support the idea of unity and collegiality of Ukraine. These common religious, folkloric, philosophical features constitute a single spiritual system of the national culture. Due to her composer talent, H. Havrylets created a complete picture of author’s vision of united Ukraine, embodied in her work all major milestones of the country’s history (from the ancient times and up to the present days), traditions and beliefs of the Ukrainian people (religious and everyday ones), their identity by including regional features into a single system of the Ukrainian nation’s values in the past and the present. An analysis of the work by H. Havrylets gives reason to believe that the composition of the work is carried out on the principle of “unity and diversity”, the use of which contributes to a more vivid expression of its main idea. The unique, original features of the different eras of the history of Ukraine, its geographical regions, the art of its outstanding creators (composers, poets and performers) are combined into a single “portrait” of the Ukrainian nation, in a common image of its mentality and culture. Summary. Thus, in the process of analyzing the musical stage performance “We will sow the Golden Stone” the religious, folklore, and worldview signs of national identity were revealed, bearing the idea of the collegiality of the Ukrainian people. Religious signs include reproduction by the composer of Pagan tradition, coverage of the Pagan era, for which ritual folklore of the ancient Slavs was used; subsequently – and Orthodox symbolism, in praising the original Christianity and the Cossacks as the defender of their native land, thanks to the appeal to the genres “koliadka”, “szhedrivka” (traditional songs usually sung on Christmas holidays), historical songs, works of authors known throughout Ukraine. The folklore signs of the national identity of the work embodying the idea of the collegiality of Ukraine include the use of folklore primary sources collected in different parts of Ukraine by Nina Matviyenko, as well as the coverage of all genres of Ukrainian folklore reflected the foundations of the worldview and everyday life of the people of all regions of the country. An expression of the ideological foundations of national identity and unity became the composer’ coverage of milestones in the history of Ukraine, historical events that happened with Ukraine as a whole – the Golden Horde’ invasion, the exploits of the Zaporozhian Sich, events of the twentieth century, which were tragic for both, Western and Eastern Ukraine. It was in these events that the eternal desire of the Ukrainian people for freedom was clearly manifested, they became symbols of his struggle for territorial integrity and his own religion and self-expression (national consciousness, culture, art), for an ideal future. Since the historical process of unity of the Ukrainian nation has not yet been completed, the problems of this study within the framework of Ukrainian musical art have prospects for further development.

Abstract:

In the article the means of musical communication and their evolution are considered in the historical and analytical aspect. There are two types of communication tools: acoustic, using the airspace as a channel for transmitting encoded information, and visual, which include stage design, allowing to perceive music as a kind of theatrical performance, and musical notation, graphically fixing all the components of the musical text. As the earliest means of nonwritten communication, the oral method is put forward, a vivid example of which is folklore, often called the musical memory of generations. Other examples of oral communication are cult music, improvisation and musical meditation. It is stated that musical writing, in particular, musical notation, and later printing tools created conditions for overcoming spatial and temporal barriers to the spread of music. The next step is the invention of technical sound recording, which opened a new era in the development of communications. Magnetic recording of the visual series made it possible to create concert films and opera films. The emergence of electronic and mechanical means of music recording contributed significantly to greater involvement of people in the process of musical communication.

Abstract:

Today we often use term ?authentic? in relation to different appearances of Georgian folk music. Along with the unambiguous meaning ?real? this term also has other meanings: ?ethnic?, ?rural?, ?old?, ?function of usual environment?, ?traditional-stylistic?, ?authoritative?, or ?reproductive?. In spite of some interconnections that arise from the term ?authentic? and its other meanings, the most relevant way to apply this popular term for performers and audiences of ?real folklore? is traditionality. This factor is manifested in the following contexts: a) performer (receiver and distributor of tradition, unobtrusively and orally), b) motivation/function (representative and spontaneous function, hereditary, utilitarian and aesthetic-daily motivation), c) repertoire (compliance of musical and verbal text?s sample with its social function, eluding canonized versions), d) expression (adequate articulation, performing regulation which is not determined by the stage, traditional instrument etc.). The problem of authenticity is more successfully regulated in traditional Georgian church music than in folk music. For the latter, in this regard the special difficulty is caused by identification of modern trends that contain folk motifs. The most popular among them is distinctive, with its stylistic reminiscent layer from the Eastern Georgian Mountains, which we refer as ?para-folkore?. Notwithstanding the fact that Georgian folklore is not centrally authorized, modernization of folklore samples and also those manifestations of post-folklore that are further away from the traditional motifs attract a wide range of listeners. Essentially, the meaning of ?authentic? in the Georgian ethno-musical context is presented as performance of the traditional rural repertoire with traditional articulation. However, we think that it is convenient for the criteria of traditional, usual environment to be added to this perspective.

Abstract:

The article analyses the life and activity of Estonian ethnomusicologist and folklorist Herbert Tampere (1909-1975), as well as the research history of Estonian folk songs until 1945, also paying attention to the influence of the Estonian Folklore Archives and its head Oskar Loorits. The historical background to Tampere’s activity is the establishment of independent statehood in Estonia (1919) after Estonians had existed as an ethic minority group subjected to the ruling classes of other nationalities for hundreds of years. The scientific and cultural background is constituted by the development of European folkloristics and ethnomusicology and the increasing prestige of folk music and non-western music in Europe, which contributed to the rise of the cultural self-awareness of Estonians as a nation with oral lore different from Indo-European culture. The approach is framed with the metaphor of life and death, which in Herderian way of thinking corresponded to the growth and fading of a nation and its creation. In the 1930s, Tampere brought into the discourse of the Estonian folk song, seemingly in opposition with the gradual fading of the living lore and complaining thereabout, a turn in writing about it, unexpectedly confirming that the folk song was alive. The older folk song started to disappear from public use in the 19th century, when people lost interest in its performance and the newer European folk music style spread more widely. At the same time, they tried to overcome the national inferiority complex that had developed due to existence as a lower class, as well as the oral culture considered as a sign of backwardness, creating on the basis of folklore a new national-language and valuable European literary culture. To accomplish this, the old, evolutionally lower traditional culture had to be abandoned. Writings about the dying folk song helped to encourage people to collect folklore and create distance with the past. In the 20th century, with the development of Estonian national self-awareness and literary culture and the rise of the nation’s self-esteem, and on the other hand the recession of Eurocentric and evolutionist way of thinking in the world of science, a new interest appeared in the structure and performance of the folk song, and it started to be increasingly appreciated and considered as living. Such changes in rhetoric indicate how reality is reflected subjectively, according to standpoints and circumstances. Considering the fact that in the 19th-century social evolution theory folklore and literary culture were attributed to different development stages of a nation, the nation with low self-esteem, striving for literary culture in the 19th century, could be satisfied with the dead folk song, yet in the 20th century, in the light of new culture concepts, it could be declared alive again. In summary it can be said that the following factors helped Tampere achieve a novel approach to folk songs in his research. 1. Tampere came from a talented and educated rural home, in which music and literature were appreciated and in whose neighbourhood different music styles were practised. His interests and skills were shaped by good education at schools with remarkable music teachers and an early contact with folklore collection at the Estonian Students’ Society. 2. Good philological education from the University of Tartu and work at the Estonian Folklore Archives, becoming familiar with folklore collections as well as other young folklorists and linguists, especially cooperation with Oskar Loorits, Karl Leichter, and Paul Ariste, added knowledge of newer research trends, such as ethnology and experimental phonetics. Maybe, paradoxically, the absence of higher music education, which would have directed the young man towards other music ideals, was positive in this respect. 3. The knowledge acquired of the methods and way of thinking in comparative music science provided a theoretical basis for understanding, valuing, and studying non-western music. Professional work was also supported by the development of sound recording and -analysis. 4. The immediate contact with living folk music already in his childhood and later on, when collecting folklore, elaboration of folk songs in the archives and compiling voluminous publications made this manner of expression more familiar. Tampere must have enjoyed the performance of at least some of the regilaul songs as he mentioned nice impressions and the need to delve deeper; also he recorded, studied, and introduced these songs to the public. 5. The heyday of national sciences and national ideals in the Republic of Estonia valued engagement in folklore as the basis of cultural identity. The first folk music reproductions appeared, such as folk dance movement and runic verse recitals at schools, which was why the issues of performance started to be noticed and studied. Oskar Loorits supervised the study and publication of the most Estonian-like (in his own opinion) folklore – folk songs – and it was probably also his influence that made Tampere study the problem of scansion, to systematize and study folk songs, and compile publications.

Abstract:

The creative work of Nikola Borota - Radovan (musician, composer, lyricist, arranger and record producer, based in New Zealand - formerly from Yugoslavia) held a specific place in development of world music (poly)genre in his native homeland in the early 1970s. This study focuses on his creative principles, applied to works published between the years 1970 and 1975 (while the role of these works in social, cultural and political context of the time and place will be elaborated in another study, see Jovanovic 2014). The platform established to present this unique musical approach authenticaly was called kamen na kamen (a studio and stage outfit that has included number of collaborations over many years). Based on the musical models and aethetics of the folk revival and created under influence of The Beatles?, in adition to many other popular music production directions of the era, Borota?s works reveal significant musical, performance and production qualities, innovative expression and musical solutions, that need to be percieved from the contemporary (ethno)musicological point of view. Despite the fact that many prominent creative Yugoslav musicians of the time also worked within a similar framework I would argue that Mr. Borota?s creative outcome was signifficantly different from other Yugoslav popular music creative efforts. This is particularly noticeable in the author?s unique treatment of South-European and other folklore motives, which is the main topic of this study. Folk (ethnic) idioms exploited by Mr. Borota in his compositions originate from the rural traditions of western Dinaric regions. This is especially true for the rhythmic formations of deaf or silent dance; for the semi-urban and urban tradition of the Balkans and the Mediterranean; Middle European traditions; traditions from non-European peoples; elements of Italian Renaissance; and international (mostly Anglo-American) musical models. Compositions are analysed partly in accordance with the principles presented by Philip Tagg (1982), and following the principles of the ?Finnish method? in ethnomusicology. According to my best knowledge, there was no previous comparable (ethno) musicological ellaboration of folk revival, Beatlesque influences and early forrays into world music within Yugoslav popular music culture. I therefore consider this study to be the first contribution to the research in this subject.

Abstract:

AbstractTrends in development of folklore studies in the research and education space at Ukrainian and foreign universities have been analyzed. They are fundamentalization, synthesis of academic science and educational practice, professionalization, institutionalization, humanitarization, anthropoligization, interdisciplinarity. It has been defined that in Ukrainian and foreign folkloristic discourse of the 20th – the beginning of the 21th centuries, folklore is studied through the prism of functional, communicative, anthropological, context-based approaches that is partially realized in the official definition of folklore according to the 1989 UNESCO Recommendation on the Safeguarding of Traditional Culture and Folklore. It has been found out that while structuring the content of folkloristic disciplines as well as directing future specialists’ researches the multivectoring of folklore studies allows instructors to use the achievements of folkloristic directions that were formed in historical retrospective and actively developed at the modern stage: linguofolkloristics, ethnomusicology, folk therapy (folk music therapy, fairytale therapy, folk dance therapy), etc. It has been justified that folklore studies in Ukrainian and foreign research and education space is being developed as an interdisciplinary science based on the historical and pedagogical experience and taking into account modern integration processes that define the problematics of the content of folkloristic, culturological training of future pedagogue-researcher who is to be educated as a man of culture, nationally aware and, at the same time, multicultural personality.

Abstract:

The article examines regional folklore as a field of interaction between academic musical culture in the Far East of Russia and China. The beginning of the systematic study of the academic musical culture of the Russian Far East is associated with the formation of the regional creative association of composers of the Far East (Union of Composers), which is succeeded today by the Far Eastern Branch of the Union of Composers of Russia. The article notes the multi-ethnicity of the region and the special role of the “dialogue of cultures” in the composers’ works. The author analyzes the culture of indigenous peoples and the East Slavic migratory culture of the Russian Far East, as well as the original culture of the countries of the Asia-Pacific region outside the Russian borders. There is highlighted the commonality of some features of the traditional Far Eastern folklore of Russia and China. The article considers the concept of “academic musical culture”, which includes the composers’ works successively connected with the foundations of Western European music formed in the period of the 17th—19th centuries, the composers’ works of the 20th century, including modern techniques, the musical performance, musical performance infrastructure, educational space and academic musicology.The paper highlights the composers of the region, the main focus of their work, the researchers of the academic musical culture of the region, whose works are significant in understanding the processes of development of modern national musical culture. The article covers the Chinese academic compositional works known in Russia, as well as the range of scientific interests of Russian researchers-orientalists and researchers of musical culture from China.There is recognized the need for cultural understanding of the stated problem through the study of academic music art, traditional music culture, music science, and music education. The author interprets the role of music and computer technologies in musical culture and education in the Far East of Russia and China as the most important component for interaction in the field of academic musical culture, focuses on the problems of informatization of modern music education.The article draws a conclusion about the unique experience of composing in China based on the traditional music of the Russian Far East. The pentatonic basis of Chinese music is especially distinguished as being close to the modal organization of the music of Far Eastern ethnic groups, which is also the basis of the folklore music of Russian Far Eastern composers. The author sees such a palatal proximity as a basis for the interaction of the cultures of the Far Eastern region. The article recognizes this aspect as important from the point of view of creating an integral multicultural space based on the principles of humanism.

A new industry of "production" has emerged with the involvement of professional musicians who own modern recording equipment and specialize in the production of "artificial" musical products. This process was accompanied by the formation of a new audience of listeners who preferred recording to live sound.

Abstract:

The article is an attempt to describe various manifestations of highland folklore in selected literary-musical works, including fragment XV of Wincenty Pol’s 1847 poetic cycle Obrazy z podróży [Images from a Journey] to which music was composed by Adam Münchheimer. It could evenb be said that if Pol expressed in the poem an uncritical idealisation of highland folklore (it is worth noting the visual beauty of the protagonists of this vitalistic dance), Münchheimer took this idealisation even further. Writing the song to be performed by a baritone and male choir, he deprived it of the primeval austerity and uncontrollable dynamics of highlanders’ dance. An important item in the Polish operatic repertoire is Stanisław Moniuszko’s Halka (premiered in 1858), composed to a libretto by Włodzimierz Wolski. Hugely important to the narrative of the work is the fact that Halka is a highland girl and that the action takes place in the village of Odrowąż (probably on the border with Orawa). Scholars agree that there is no real highland folklore in Halka (Moniuszko had never been to the Tatras!); instead, we have an uncritical idealisation of highlanders manifested in a clear axiological division into positive and negative protagonists. In the case of the most popular ballet idealising highland folklore, i.e. Karol Szymanowski’s Harnasie (composed between 1823 and 1831 to a script by Jerzy and Helena Rytard), its stage productions took on various forms, from a faithful reconstruction of highland folklore, to stylisation, from modest sets to colourful spectacle, from a vividly portrayed dramatic conflict to a subtle narrative in which dance became the main means of expression.In the case of the most popular ballet idealising highland folklore, i.e. Karol Szymanowski’s Harnasie (composed between 1823 and 1831 to a script by Jerzy and Helena Rytard), its stage productions took on various forms, from a faithful reconstruction of highland folklore, to stylisation, from modest sets to colourful spectacle, from a vividly portrayed dramatic conflict to a subtle narrative in which dance became the main means of expression.

Abstract:

Mugham plays a significant role in the national culture of modern Azerbaijan. Considering this fact, this article describes the initial period of the formation of the Azerbaijani mugham singing school, that is, the end of the 19th – the first half of the 20th centuries. Based on the results of field research (participant observation, and also interviews in Russian and Azerbaijani languages with representatives of the musical community of the capital of Azerbaijan: performers and listeners of mugham, scientists, publicists, employees of concert halls where mugham performances take place, employees of state institutions who are responsible for development programs culture in the country), and available sources, the author of the article focuses on those socio-historical circumstances and characters that testify to the specifics of the modern singing school of mugham. Therefore, special attention is paid to two soloists and connoisseurs of Azerbaijani music: Jabbar Garyagdioglu and Bulbul. The first of them, although he grew up in the traditional environment of folklore singers, performed mughams in a new, theatrical form on the stages of concert halls. The change in the place and form of mugham performance laid the foundation for the emergence of the main genre of modern national music in Azerbaijan - mugham opera. Bulbul's merit for the formation of the mugham singing school, in turn, is that he developed an original singing technique, the specificity of which is the synthesis of modified norms of vocal performance of classical music of the Western type and folklore art, primarily mugham. Due to technical innovations, the national music of Azerbaijan, colored with a purely folk style, is not only interesting, but also understandable to a foreign listener.

Abstract:

AIM: The purpose of the work is to study the specifics and evaluate the effectiveness of the use of art-therapeutic and gaming technologies based on musical folklore in the course of rehabilitation of children with health limitations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The socialization of such children depends largely on the characteristics of health, the principles of their training, and the effectiveness of the chosen methods. This justifies the need to analyze the practical experience and evaluate the results of efforts of specialists who deal with special children. RESULTS: The results of the conducted psychological and pedagogical experiment on the use of art-therapeutic and gaming technologies based on musical folklore have shown that singing and playing classes are highly effective, and improving the physical and mental health of children is possible even in very severe cases, for example, in cases a delayed psychoverbal development (DPVD) and early childhood autism. Early start of corrective training provides the greatest degree of correction of physical and mental disabilities, which is associated with the high level of activity of the brain and nervous system in children. At that, two-thirds of the wards, for whom the methods of training at an early age were chosen correctly, acquire a condition of a healthy person, i.e. begin to live a normal life, learn as well as their healthy peers, and thus, previously diagnosed health problems remain in the past. CONCLUSION: Analyzing the results of classes with children allows concluding that the training of troubled children takes place in several stages, through which they gradually move from the development of basic communication skills and control of their body, from socialization and learning the correct, socially acceptable patterns of behavior to more complex tasks associated with pre-professional education, voice-training, and breathing, work on sound quality, range of voice, etc. Features of the use of art-therapeutic technologies are that children with health limitation are able to achieve the level of professional vocal training and overcome specific difficulties with motor skills, speech, and behavior, which are stated by the diagnosis. The teacher needs to clearly understand at what stage of development is each individual child, and choose individual methods of training in accordance with the peculiarities of the child’s health. The effectiveness of art-therapeutic technologies based on musical folklore is due to the synthesis of the possibilities of musical-creative and developmental-gaming activities. Musical folklore allows the child not only to master his skills of speech but also to realize himself and feel own body, to be able to learn new things and realize it, to acquire the skill of communication with other people, the ability to plan actions, to think logically, and to comprehend the world around. All this makes the lessons extremely valuable and important tool of pedagogical assistance to children with health limitations.

The article presents the practical implementation of the additional educational program «Folk Music» at the St. Petersburg children’s music school № 34. The basic concept of teaching is presented, all the constituent elements of the educational program are examined and the main objective that the teaching staff of the school has been following for 30 years is formulated. It is stated that through the study of historical experience of the people, the quintessence of which is in the artistic forms of folk culture, as well as through the perception and broadcast of works of folklore, students perceive various aspects of socio-psychological processes. They go through socializing and self-identification and form values that determine the behavior of a modern person, a person who is indeed a culture bearer.

Abstract:

Background. The aim of the article is examination and presentation of Valentyn Borysov’s creative life, who was a celebrated Ukrainian composer (1901–1988), a classic of Kharkiv composition school, author of vivid and profound works in such spheres as symphonic, choral, chamber, vocal and piano music; his 120th anniversary in 2021 will be a big milestone for artistic community of Ukraine. Valentyn Borysov’s creativity is an indispensable part of national music, one of its treasures. He belonged to artists who had defined ways of development of Ukrainian professional music in XX century. In his creative outcome we can see influences of numerous artistic tendencies, characteristic for extremely controversial, but also prolific epoch. Composer being a part of quite ambivalent period of Ukraine’s cultural history conditioned usage of diverse research approaches; his works are regarded both in the light of existing musical traditions and on the background of his contemporary cultural environment. This is the novelty of the study. Integrity of presentation of Valentyn Borysov’s creative life is supported by the fact that this article considers his pedagogical activity in his alma mater, nowadays Kharkiv I. P. Kotlyarevsky National University of Arts, which resulted in bringing up a constellation of well-known Ukrainian composers, as well as his public and aimed at cultural enlightenment work. Results and conclusions. For V. Borysov, stage of accumulation of professional and personal experience coincided in time with a turning point in development of Ukrainian musical art. In these years composer attended classes of S. S. Bogatyrov, forefather of Kharkiv composition school; he studied alongside with M. Koliada, H. Tumeneva, D. Klebanov, V. Barabashov, M. Tits, who constituted a brilliant generation of Ukrainian composers several decades later. Symphonic and chamber works of this time showed such features of V. Borysov’s creative method as large-scale thought, leaning towards epic and heroic images, skilful usage of advanced composition techniques. At the same time, under the influence of external factors V. Borysov turned to relevant genre of his time, such as mass song and choral music. As early as on the primary stage of his development as a composer, V. Borysov defined Ukrainian folklore as one of the main sources for his inspiration. Folklore component of musical language became one of the prominent features of his style, its presence is conspicuous on each stages of his evolution. Submission of individual to collective, national conditioned V. Borysov’s interest to monumental forms of symphony, oratorio, cantata, poem, defined their leading role through late style of composer’s creativity. Unique combination of already existing aesthetic premises, high level of moral imperative, relevance of musical language created phenomenon of “V. Borysov’s late style”. The article regards the most original works, which were received very well by the contemporaries: “Divertissement” for symphonic orchestra, “Music for strings”, concert compositions for piano, violin, viola, sets of piano miniatures, composed on late period (70s–80s). Singularity of musical language in these works is created by the fact that V. Borysov succeeded to create a unique mixture of folklore tradition with “sonic field” of avantgarde musical art; with this musical language incredibly relevant, “eternal” problems of existence are embodied. This article was inspired by a desire to draw attention to V. Borysov’s legacy, to revive profound and immensely talented works of the composer, to enrich culture of modernity with them, to remind people of XXI century about such a treasure, that his works are.

Abstract:

The musical history of Azerbaijan is a part of understanding of the ancient past of Azerbaijan. The universally recognized development peculiarities of Azerbaijan are the result of the specific musical culture of the Azerbaijani people. Difficulties of studying the ancient music culture of Azerbaijan are directly related to the absence of leading sources and indirect references. Oral traditional folklore, folk song creativity, fiction and archaeological monuments are the main sources of the study of the past of Azerbaijani culture. It is important to preserve the authenticity of classical music and folk songs of Azerbaijan, starting with the ancient ancestors of the Azerbaijani people: thousands of years before our era had a different historical effect on the Medians, the Caspians, the Albanians and other tribes. The extensive trade routes passing through Azerbaijan, the Silk Road, the invasion of various tribes as Huns- Suvars (in the VII century BC), Romans (at the beginning of our era), Khazars (VI - VII centuries), Cumanses (IX - XI centuries), Seljuk Turks (X-XI centuries), Mongols (XIII century), Persians, Arabs and had their specific impact on Azerbaijani folk music and culture. The broad and sophisticated international trade junction of the Middle East countries certainly came to Azerbaijan. Latin and Greek inscription about Domitian’s, XII Roman legion being on the shores of the Caspian Sea, were discovered on Gobustan rocks at the end of the first century The great Norwegian researcher and traveler, Tur Heyerdal in his scientific findings made a special place for Gobustan boat descriptions and considered similarity with the Sumerian culture. He also stated that, the civilization of Arabian Sea had contacted with Gobustan[5]. The Khazars are one of the oldest and most widely spread ethnic groups in the Eastern and Central Transcaucasia. According to ancient and old Oriental sources, during the existence of the Achaemenid rule (6th-4th centuries BC), they established ethno-cultural relations with their close neighbors, as well as with peoples who were relatively far from them. Key words: music history, archeological monuments, classical music, ancient tribes, folklore

Abstract:

The article analyses how the folk singing tradition of the Lithuania Minor developed in the late 20th and in the early 21st centuries. It examines the activities of the folklore groups in the Klaipėda Region during the period of 1971–2020, focusing on those that assert fostering of the lietuvininkai singing tradition as their mission or one of their goals. The study employs the previously unused materials, which allow revising the former research results regarding the revival of the Lithuanian ethnic music and show the folklore ensembles working in the Klaipėda Region as a significant part of the Lithuanian folklore movement and the revival of the ethnic music, emerging from the 1960s. Special emphasis is placed on the early phase in adoption of the lietuvininkai singing tradition related to the activities of the folklore ensemble “Vorusnėˮ established in 1971 at the Klaipėda faculties of the State Conservatory of the former LSSR, and the role it had in prompting the creation of other folklore groups in Klaipėda, as well as its impact on the broader cultural and educational processes taking place in the Klaipėda Region.In the 20th century, the prevailing narrative regarding the Lithuanian inhabitants of the Lithuania Minor maintained that books, hymns, schools, church, social and cultural organizations, and choral or theatre activities were the most significant factors influencing the cultural expression of lietuvininkai, while the Lithuanian folklore was hardly practiced anymore or even considered an inappropriate thing. Judging from the folklore recordings, the folk singing tradition supported by the lietuvininkai themselves disappeared along with the singers born in the late 19th century. However, after the WWII, it was adopted and continued by the folklore groups appearing the Klaipėda Region. These groups included people from the other regions of Lithuania who had settled there. This is essentially the process of reviving the ethnic music, which began in Europe during the Enlightenment period and continues in many parts of the world.“Vorusnėˮ was founded in 1971 as the first institutional student folklore ensemble in Klaipėda Region. For 27 years, its leader was a young and talented professor of the Baltic languages Audronė Jakulienė (later Kaukienė). She became the founder of the linguistic school at the Klaipėda University (KU). In the intense and multifaceted activities of the “Vorusnėˮ ensemble, two different stages may be discerned, embracing the periods of 1971–1988 and 1989–2000.In 1971–1988, the ensemble mobilized and educated students in the consciously chosen direction of fostering the Lithuanian ethnic culture, sought contacts with the native lietuvininkai, collected and studied ethnographic and dialectal data, prepared concert programs based on the scholarly, written, and ethnographic sources, gave concerts in Lithuania and abroad, and cooperated with folklore groups from other institutions of higher education.In 1989–2000, the “Vorusnėˮ ensemble engaged in numerous other areas of activity. The children‘s folklore ensemble “Vorusnėlėˮ was established in 1989; both “Vorusnėˮ and “Vorusnėlėˮ became involved in the activities of the community of the Lithuania Minor founded in 1989. The leader of the ensemble and its members contributed to the establishment of the Klaipėda University, which became an important research center of the Prussian history and culture. The leader of the ensemble and her supporters created a new study program of the Lithuanian philology and ethnology at the KU, which during its heyday (2011–2014) had developed three levels of higher education, including bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral studies. The Folklore Laboratory and Archive was established at the Department of the Baltic Linguistics and Ethnology, headed by Kaukienė, and young researchers in philology, ethnology, and ethnomusicology were encouraged to carry out their research there. In the course of over two decades, Kaukienė initiated organizing numerous research conferences dealing with lietuvininkai language and culture.Until 1980, “Vorusnėˮ was the only folklore ensemble in the Klaipėda Region, but in 1985, there were already ten folklore ensembles. These ensembles developed different creative styles that perhaps most notably depended on the personal structure of these ensembles and their leaders’ ideas and professional musical skills. Generally, at the beginning of their activity, all these ensembles sang, played and danced the folklore repertoire comprising all the regions of Lithuania. The activities of “Vorusnėˮ and other folklore ensembles in Klaipėda until 1990 showed that revival of folklore there essentially followed the lines established in other cities and regions of Lithuania.During the first decade after the restoration of independence of Lithuania in 1990, folklore was in high demand. In Klaipėda, the existing ensembles were actively working, and the new ones kept appearing based on the previous ones. The folklore ensembles of the Klaipėda Region clearly declared their priorities, embracing all the contemporary contexts. Some of them associated their repertoire with the folklore of lietuvininkai, others with Samogitian folklore.The lietuvininkai singing tradition was adopted and developed in two main directions.The first one focused on authentic reconstruction, attempting recreation with maximumaccuracy of the song‘s dialect, melody, and manner of singing, as well as its relationship tocustoms, historical events or living environment. The second direction engaged in creativedevelopment, including free interpretations of the songs, combining them with other stylesand genres of music and literature, and using them for individual compositions. These twoways could be combined as well. Lietuvininkai are not directly involved in these activities, butthey tolerate them and participate in these processes in their own historically and culturallydetermined ways.The contemporary artistic expression of the promoters of the lietuvininkai singing tradition is no longer constrained by the religious and ideological dogmas that were previously maintained in the Lithuania Minor and in a way regulated performance of these songs. It is determined nowadays by consciousness, creativity, resourcefulness, and knowledge of its promoters. The dogmas of the Soviet era and modernity have created a certain publicly displayed (show type) folklore. The ensembles took part of the institutionalized amateur art, subsequently becoming subject to justified and unjustified criticism, which is usually levelled on them by the outsiders studying documents and analyzing processes. However, favorable appreciation and external evaluation by the participants of the activities and the local communities highlight the meaning of this activity.

Abstract:

"The stories of the little ones were the starting point of some operasʼ creation. In the Romanian musical context the first operas for children appear in the first half of the 20th century. The composers opt for the connection with the folkloric treasure, connection made both at the level of literary language, and the musical one. The horizons, the accomplishments, and the conceptual maturations are the three creative stages in the evolution of this musical subgenre. The colorful world of the children calls for choral moments that fill the stage with characters, the choral landscape bringing in timbral diversity. As well as the solo part, the choral moments are meant for adult voices (mixed choir, men choir, and female choir) or for children choir (choir on equal voices, with 2, 3, or 4 voices). The simple forms of the folkloric music are present, couplet-refrain alternation led to a certain tendency to miniature. The popular melos is widely used, rhythmical figures are complex, and the effects of the orchestral timbre stimulate the optimistic character, the sweet lyricism, exuberance and cheerfulness."

Abstract:

The article is an attempt to determine the attitude of Franz Liszt to Hungary – the country where the composer was born, which in the 19th century was part of the Austrian Empire. The artist was shaped in accordance with the Western European culture model. That in combination with contacts with the intellectuals and the world of art deeply transformed Liszt’s worldview and shaped his artistic profile. This cosmopolitan attitude changed at a certain stage of his life when he returned to his home country. In Hungary, a process began, which allowed Liszt to notice the meaning of his country’s culture. This tendency was expressed in the composer’s interest in Gypsy music and national folklore. The article characterises the music of Hungarian Roma people as well as folk dances (verbunkos, czardas). The influence of the aforementioned elements is noticeable in Liszt’s compositions from that period, especially in the nineteen Hungarian Rhapsodies. The cycle includes clear references to Gypsy music, the sound of a Roma band in particular. A reference to folklore is the form of the pieces and the stylistic means taken from verbunkos, among others. The Rhapsodies are a masterly combination of virtuoso technique with the capacities of the piano (imitation of the cimbalom or glockenspiel). The composer incorporated new harmonic qualities, such as a Gypsy scale or imitation of folk bass. At the same time, the cycle remains in accordance with the rules of classical harmony. Liszt’s searching for new composition possibilities and sound qualities gave an impulse for the development of ethnomusicology, exploring and formulating new concepts in the art of piano playing (e.g. by Béla Bartók).

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Musicians and dancers can be considered an at-risk population for developing noise-induced hearing loss. OBJECTIVES: To determine the audiological profile of members of a folklore-related music group and quantify noise exposure at their rehearsal venue. METHODS: This was a quantitative and descriptive study. The musicians and dancers were evaluated in two stages: an interview about their working life, followed by high frequency tonal audiometry. The sound pressure level in the group’s rehearsal venue was measured using a BEK 2270 Noise Analyzer. RESULTS: A total of 7.2% of the subjects had noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) and 39% of the audiometric tests were notch type. During the interview 31.7% of the subjects mentioned discomfort from loud noise, although none of them used ear protection. The environmental assessment showed inadequate humidity and oscillating temperature. Twenty sound pressure level measurements were performed for Leq (equivalent sound pressure levels) and the results ranged from 88 dB (A) to 99 dB (A) with a mean of 97.05. CONCLUSIONS: Exposure to high levels of sound pressure has led to NIHL in some members of the group. Some of those with normal hearing also presented a notch configuration characteristic of NIHL. Tinnitus, indicating that a change in hearing has occurred, was the most frequent auditory symptom.

Abstract:

The study presents the methodological foundations analysis of the interaction between music and literature of the Ukrainian diaspora in the period of XX – early XXI century. In particular, the article offers an example of analysis of such interaction on the example of Ukrainian diaspora bandura art. Fundamental in the methodological analysis of the art interaction, and in particular literature and music, are the forms of emigrant (diasporic) worldview – conservative (traditional), synthesizing (unifying), and transforming (experimental). They are manifested in various forms of foreign artists’ creative activity – editing (restoration) of ancient genres, their modification and metamorphosis. The concept of “meta-art” was used as the main methodological basis for the music and literature interaction analysis, which is aimed at finding mechanisms for a comprehensive analysis of the Ukrainian diaspora art within the historical stages (according to emigration waves) and within the territorial settlements that found its reflection in figurative-thematic, value-aesthetic, genre, stylistic priorities of artists and interpretation of their ideas and meanings. The levels of literature and musical art interaction are considered by the author of the article on the inclusion samples in the bandura repertoire of various genres arrangements of folklore, religious and spiritual creativity, “shevchenkiana”, and works based on the Ukrainian poems of the XIX – XX centuries. Among the musical and folklore samples are epos (dumas, historical songs), domestic, humorous, lyrical songs, and the latest genres of works of the liberation struggle – songs of Sich riflemen, rebel songs. Among the spiritual and religious works are psalms and chants, kolyadkas and shchedrivkas, as well as religious and liturgical compositions by D. Bortnyansky, A. Hnatyshyn, M. Haivoronsky, M. Lysenko, D. Sichynsky, and other works arranged for bandura ensembles or chapels. Shevchenkiana bandura repertoire includes arrangements of folk songs and author’s works based on T. Shevchenko’s poems for solo bandura players and ensembles, recorded in music editions and sound recordings. Examples of cooperation between composers and poets in bandura art (in particular, H. Kytasty and I. Bahriany) are analyzed separately.

Abstract:

In order to consider this topic, it was first necessary to discuss certain problems of terminology and periodisation relating to musical modernism in general. It is already familiar the extent to which the terms "new music", "modernist", "contemporary" and "avant-garde" music have been used interchangeably, as synonyms. For this reason, it was first important to outline the period of musical modernism as almost generally accepted, which is regarded as an epoch comprising three different periods: (I) period of early modernism (1890?1918), announced by a break with later romanticism and a turn towards French Impressionism, Austro-German Expressionism and Russian "folkloric Expressionism"; (II) period of "classical modernism"(1919?1945) that witnessed a diffusion of neo-classicism and serialism; (III) period of "high modernism" (1946?1972) characterized by highly experimental compositional techniques such as integral serialism and aleatoricism. In relation to this, avant-garde movements are seen as radically innovative and subversive tendencies within this modernist epoch, and while certain postmodernist ideas can be recognized as early as the 1950s, postmodernism as a movement hadn?t gained its full potency until the 1970s. Since then, it has assumed different forms of existence as well as having assimilated a continued form of ?modernist project?. The second part of the article proposes a periodisation of Serbian musical modernism, which is divided into four stages. The first stage (1908?1945) was a period where elements of Impressionism and German expressionism were creatively introduced into the works of several leading composers (Petar Konjovic, Stevan Hristic, Miloje Milojevic, Josip Slavenski, Marko Tajcevic). The second stage (1929?1945) was marked by a group of composers who studied in Prague and assimilated certain progressive compositional techniques such as free tonality, atonality dodecaphony, microtonality and athematicism (Mihovil Logar, Predrag Milosevic, Dragutin Colic, Ljubica Maric, Vojislav Vuckovic, Milan Ristic). The third stage (1951?1970) followed immediately after the era of Socialist Realism, which involved the rediscovery of the pre- World War II Western modernism and prepared the ground for contemporary avant-garde developments almost non-existent before 1961 (Milan Ristic, Dusan Radic, Dejan Despic Vladan Radovanovic, Enriko Josif, Stanojlo Rajicic, Vasilije Mokranjac Aleksandar Obradovic, Ljubica Maric, Rajko Maksimovic). The fourth stage (1956?1980) was the period during which the post-World War II avant-garde developments found their home amongst Serbian composers, some of them conceived almost simultaneously with but independent of the current progressive development in the rest of the world (Vladan Radovanovic Aleksandar Obradovic, Petar Ozgijan, Petar Bergamo, Srdjan Hofman, the group Opus 4).

The article considers versatile ethnomusicographic activities of the Research Scientific Laboratory of Music Ethnology (RSLME) in initial period of its activity (1990–2004) under the direction of Bohdan Lukaniuk. A brief historical outline of the ethnomusicological studies of the Lviv Conservatory has been submitted, the chronology of educational reform in pedagogy and scientific ethnomusicological studies of higher education has been presented, which resulted in the establishment of a new scientific institution, the Scientific-Researching Laboratory of Music Ethnography, on the basis of the Office of Folk Music as early as 1990’s. The main innovations introduced by B. Lukaniuk in the etnomusicology and education were outlined. PSRLME in cooperation with Music Folklore Department of the Mykola Lysenko Lviv High Music School has rapidly developed into a trusted ethnomusicological institution well established in Ukraine and abroad. The main innovations were: carefull planning of all activities of the Laboratory as an integral part of the project “Folk music of Galicia and Volodymyria”; the methodological and practical reform of musical education; establishment of an careful field research and archiving strategy as integral part of historical and ethnomusicological research programmes of the Western Ukraine ethnomusicological areals; a reform of Ethnomusicographic data archive: careful planning of field research programmes, establishments of new funds and collections, systematic archiving of current & historical records, etc. The results of the initial period of the activities of PSRLME in the field of musical and ethnographic data archives are summarized, including the historical timeline of the implementation of as much as two dozen research programs and sub-programs which were then initially established, and a series of indicators has been created to provide historical timeline reference.

Abstract:

Terceira Island hosts a Carnival that enjoys unique features in the landscape of European folklore. It involves a major share of the resident population, it takes place on stages scattered all over the island, and it involves a blend of dancing, music, and acting. This paper presents the preliminary results of a collaborative project between native and foreign scholars, with the activist goal of providing Terceira’s Carnival with visibility in order to ensure its preservation. Documentary evidence and fieldwork activities undertaken in 2020 provide grounds to interpret Terceira’s Carnival as a multi-modal endeavour that nurtures social cohesion through mythopoesis, subversion of hegemonic roles, and the distribution of leadership to folk elites. As such, we argue that Terceira’s Carnival does not fit traditional scholarly views on European Carnivals. Additionally, we show that, thanks to its ability to trigger identity-making processes, this Carnival is a case for cultural sustainability: in fact, it ensures the preservation of communal bonds in face of changing global and regional social landscapes.

Abstract:

Abstract The folkloric character of the beginnings of jazz has been established by all researchers of American classical music. The African-Americans brought as slaves onto the territory of North America, the European émigrés tied to their own folkloric repertoire, the songs in the musical revues on Broadway turned national successes – can be considered the first three waves to have fundamentally influenced the history of jazz music. Preserving the classical and modern manner of improvisation and arrangement has not been a solution for authentic jazz musicians, permanently preoccupied with renewing their mode of expression. As it happened in the academic genres, the effect of experiments was mostly to draw the public away, as its capacity of understanding and empathizing with the new musical “products” (especially those in the “free” stylistic area) were discouraging. The areas which also had something original to say in the field of jazz remained the traditional, archaic cultures in Eastern Europe, Asia, the Orient. Compared to folkloric works from very distant areas, the musical culture of the Balkans bears the advantage of diversity, the ease of reception of melodies, rhythms and instrumental sonority. One of the most important architects of ethno-jazz is Anatoly Vapirov. A classically-trained musician, an author of concerts, stage music and soundtracks, a consummate connoisseur of the classical mode of improvisation as a saxophone and clarinet player, Anatoly Vapirov has dedicated decades of his life to researching the archaic musical culture of the Balkans, which he translated into the dual academic-jazz language, in the hypostases of predetermined scored works and of improvised works – either as a soloist, in combos or big bands. This study focuses on highlighting the language techniques, emphasizing the aesthetic-artistic qualities of the music signed Anatoly Vapirov.

Based on written sources known today, as well as findings and published work from other academic disciplines (linguistics, folklore, ethnology, archaeology and others), it can be stated that the main features of Baltic paganism should be considered the following: a) an abundance of hierarchically and functionally different gods, b) the ancestor cult, c) open sacred sites with an eternal flame or one kindled during rituals, d) communal rituals performed by servants of the cult in order to confirm the cosmic order or the welfare of members of the community, e) the expression of godly powers and a return connection to the gods via mediums, and hence a deep respect for nature, and f) a conception of the afterlife as reward for loyalty to the gods and their established order. This article is dedicated to one of important elements of Baltic paganism, namely, characterizing the sacred buildings, sacred sites and sacrificial sites.

Abstract:

В специальном выпуске журнала раскрываются актуальные проблемы современной отечественной и зарубежной этномузыкологии. Настоящее издание включено в программу мероприятий Санкт-Петербургской государственной консерватории имени Н. А. Римского-Корсакова, посвященных Году культурного наследия народов России. В журнале представлены результаты исследований сотрудников, преподавателей, аспирантов, выпускников Московской и Санкт-Петербургской консерваторий, Российской академии музыки имени Гнесиных, Воронежского института искусств, Университета святых Кирилла и Мефодия (Скопье). На протяжении десятилетий в этих образовательных организациях ведется интенсивная деятельность в сфере собирания и изучения музыкального фольклора силами таких структур, как Научный центр народной музыки имени К. В. Квитки, Фольклорно-этнографический центр имени А. М. Мехнецова, Музыкально-этнографический центр имени Е. В. Гиппиуса, Институт фольклора имени Марко Цепенкова. В фондах этих подразделений сосредоточены многие тысячи уникальных экспедиционных аудио- и видеозаписей народных песен, инструментальной музыки, жанров устной словесности, хореографии, которые составляют «золотой запас» нематериального культурного наследия различных народов. В последние годы угроза утраты традиций народной культуры становится все более острой. В связи с этим исследователи столкнулись с необходимостью разработки алгоритмов доступа к документальным источникам, цифровизации фольклорно-этнографических материалов, их включения в сеть Интернет, создания общедоступных порталов, специализированных на различных аспектах актуализации фольклорного наследия. Формы и опыт такой работы в зарубежных странах (Норвегии, Италии, Македонии) представлены в статьях А. Остапенко, И. Тепловой, Р. Величковской. Не менее важной является задача обработки и введения в научный оборот документальных данных, полученных в ходе фольклорных экспедиций разных лет. Такая работа базируется на тщательном изучении каждого образца, требует системного подхода, применения методов типологического исследования, картографирования, историко-стилевой оценки. Конечные цели связаны с созданием фольклорно-этнографического атласа России, с одной стороны, и восстановлением очагов бытования ярких самобытных явлений народной культуры, с другой. В статье И. Никитиной характеризуются мужские певческие традиции Русского Севера; Л. Белогурова и Ю. Журавлева раскрывают особенности свадебных напевов Рязанской области; Г. Сысоева обобщает информацию о весенних песнях южнорусской традиции; исследование А. Косых связано с религиозными песнопениями духоборцев, в основе которых обнаруживаются тексты русских духовных стихов. Тема «фольклор и композитор» представлена в журнале исследованием М. Иоанну и И. Поповой: в статье впервые публикуются подлинные мелодии, которые были использованы Н. Скалкотасом в сюите «36 греческих танцев». В разделе журнала «Документы» перед читателем раскрываются картины истории этномузыкологии. Стенограмма доклада Ф. А. Рубцова, содержание которого затрагивает одну из краеугольных, до сих пор нерешенных научных проблем, позволяет «услышать» живую речь выдающегося ученого. Еще более выразительными по своей эмоциональной достоверности оказываются письма В. И. Харькова и К. В. Квитки, касающиеся чрезвычайно сложных ситуаций их жизни. Публикация документов предваряется статьями Е. Редьковой и Е. Битеряковой, подготовивших рукописи к изданию. A special issue of the magazine reveals current problems of the modern domestic and foreign ethnomusicology. This publication is included in the program of events of the Saint Petersburg Rimsky-Korsakov State Conservatory dedicated to the Year of Cultural Heritage of the Peoples of Russia. The magazine presents the results of the research by employees, teachers, graduate students, graduates of the Moscow and St. Petersburg Conservatories, the Gnesin Russian Academy of Music, the Voronezh Institute of Arts, and the University of Saints Cyril and Methodius (Skopje). These educational organizations have been conducting intensive activity in the field of collecting and studying music folklore for decades, engaging such structures as the Klyment Kvitka Folk Music Research Center, the Anatoliy Mekhnetsov Folklore and Ethnographic Center, the Yevgeniy Gippius Music and Ethnographic Center, and the Marco Tsepenkov Institute of Folklore. The archives of these units contain many thousands of unique expeditionary audio and video recordings of folk songs, instrumental music, genres of oral literature and choreography, which constitute the “golden reserve” of the intangible cultural heritage of various peoples. The threat of loss of traditions of folk culture has become more acute in recent years, which compels researchers to develop algorithms for accessing documentary sources, provide digitalization of folklore and ethnographic materials placing them in the Internet, create public portals specializing in various aspects of actualization of folklore heritage. The forms and experience of such work in foreign countries (Norway, Italy, Macedonia) are presented in articles by A. Ostapenko, I. Teplova, R. Velichkovska. The task of processing and introducing the documentary data obtained during folklore expeditions of different years into scientific circulation is also important. Such work is based on a thorough study of each sample and requires a systematic approach, use of typological research methods, mapping, historical and style assessment. The goal is not only to create a folklore-ethnographic atlas of Russia, but also to restore the forms of existence of original phenomena of the folk culture. Male singing traditions of the Russian North are characterized in the article by I. Nikitina; L. Belogurova and Yu. Zhuravleva describe the features of wedding singing in the Ryazan region; G. Sysoeva summarizes information about spring songs of the South Russian tradition; A. Kosykh studies religious chants of the Dukhobors based on the texts of Russian spiritual verses. The theme “folklore and composer” is presented in the article by M. Ioannou and I. Popova, the genuine melodies used by N. Skalkottas in the suite “36 Greek Dances” being published for the first time. The stages of the history of ethnomusicology are disclosed to the reader in the section “Documents”. The transcript of the report of F. Rubtsov, which covers one of the fundamental, though still unresolved scientific problems, allows you to “hear” a live speech of the outstanding scientist. Even more expressive in their emotional veracity are the letters of V. Khar’kov and K. Kvitka regarding extremely difficult situations of their lives. The section opens with articles by E. Redkova and E. Biteryakova, who prepared manuscripts for publication.

Abstract:

The topic of this article is to illustrate the contribution of festivals to Latgalian culture. The article gives an overview on the development of the festivals: Latgales Televīzijas Mūzikas festivāls, ”Osvalds”, ”Muzykys Skrytuļs” and Latgales Mūzikas festivāls. The article is based on interviews with the festival organizers, available press materials, internet resources and the author’s personal observations both as a listener and a participant of the described festivals. Festivals are mentioned in chronological order. Latgales Televīzijas Mūzikas festivāls was the festival that started advertising of regional art in Latvia. It was characterized by a variety of genres and the opportunity for artists to introduce themselves to the general public on a high professional level. “Osvalds” is an entertainment festival for people of different taste. It popularizes regional associations and most up-to-date Latvian artists; the Latgalian element does occur, but it is not the main objective. “Muzykys Skrytuļs” has promoted the creation of Latgalian songs, the foundation of music groups and has given opportunity for newcomers to perform on a bigger stage. By concert records and live broadcasts this festival makes a great contribution to the development and the popularization of Latgalian identity. Latgales Mūzikas festivāls has provided an opportunity to the most famous, up- to-date Latgalian artists to perform at the festival on the main stage, thus filling a time gap within the field of Latgalian festivals. Each festival expresses the Latgalian identity in a different manner. However it can be perceived in each of them, therefore it is possible to affirm that festivals integrate, help to maintain and console the Latgalian identity. Most prominently it demonstrates to the new generation that Latgalians are a part of the modern world just like everyone else and that in order to express their cultural identity they themselves could actively participate in various folklore and folk dance groups or even start a rock band that performs in Latgalian language.

The article is devoted to comprehension of specifics and formation prerequisites of composer’s and musical authorship phenomena historical formation in European culture of the Middle Ages. Genesis of composer’s phenomenon and individual musical authorship model is considered on the basis of historical, socio-cultural and aesthetic-artistic transformations, on awareness about their dynamic’s tendencies and general cultural institutionalization of an authorship phenomenon, as well as on an increasing role of individual creativity in an artistic realm. It is stated that multi-ethnic and anonymous culture of oral tradition, folklore and Christian singing practices, as well as instrumental improvisation’s traditions, became spiritual sources of this phenomena and turn into a strong foundation of musical professionalism and creative impulse for European authorial music evolution. It is emphasized that process of composer’s formation as a creativity subject and musical professionalism carrier was stimulated by the necessity of everyday vocal-choral practice, conditioned by the spiritual context of time, by intention on theocentric world’s picture and religious – Christian outlook dominance. Significant role of secular direction development in the context of music-author’s discourse formation and composer’s figure assertion in the late Middle Ages is highlighted.

Abstract:

This article is devoted to the historiography of the Ukrainian string quartet. The article presents a detailed description of three musical and artistic ideas of the quartet genre – “timbre and coloristic, “virtuoso technical” and “semantic”. The author presents the examples of implementing these three musical and artistic ideas in the works of composers of different eras and national school. It is emphasized that the nature of the string quartet is revealed at the intersection of global categories of genre and style in music, which are adapted through corresponding traditions of art. These categories can be divided into historical, inherent in different schools, as well as “personal”, individual. The author of the article identifies three main stages of the quartet genre formation in Ukraine: “neoclassical”, “neo-folklore” and “polystylistic” and characterizes their main tendencies. The time frames of these three stages are outlined comparing to the development stages of the quartet genre in Europe. The article contains the examples of reproducing the basic tendencies of the quartet writing style as well as the technical means of performing practice, which appeared to be dominant in this or that period of time. The most striking examples of quartet pieces from the point of view of genre, epoch and national stylistics are analyzed.

Abstract:

Introduction. In the music of the late twentieth century the realization of the creative potential of performers is rarely limited with the framework of direction which was chosen in the beginning of career. The field of the academic music may be too narrow for the artist, but this does not mean a definitive departure from this area. The life and performances of Italian singer, actress and composer Daisy Lumini (1936–1993) could be considered as one of the examples of the twentieth century “variability” of the artist’s way. She developed from a graduate of the Conservatory to a pop star and a cabaret singer, from a medieval folklore performer to an interpreter of contemporary academic music. Daisy Lumini’s unique performing experience led her to collaborate with Italian composers of the late twentieth century. Theoretical background. The extraordinary personality of Daisy Lumini received a certain resonance in the European press. High historical value is the biographical essay “Daisy e la musica. Una grande e tragica storia” (2019) by Chiara Ferrari, based on the memories of Beppe Chierici. Daisy Lumini and her works are mentioned in digest “The Singer-Songwriter in Europe: Paradigms, Politics and Place” (2016) and in Jacopo Tomatis’s “Storia culturale della canzone italiana” (2019). The purpose of this paper is to reveal the specifics of the interaction of the composer and performer in the post-avant-garde music based on the creative collaboration of Daisy Lumini and Italian composers of the late twentieth century (Franco Mannino, Luciano Berio, Salvatore Sciarrino). This study requires the use of analytical, style and performing methods of scientific research. Results of the research. Daisy Lumini’s singing style has implicated using a lot of types of intonational practices which is usually associated with the mass twentieth century culture (including pop songs, folk music, cabaret aesthetic etc.). Nevertheless, she had started her musician career with getting education (as a composer and pianist) in totally academic environment in Luigi Cherubini Conservatory (Florence, Italy). Being a daughter of the Florentine painter Vasco Lumini, Daisy Lumini had would be able to continue a calm and comfortable existence in Florence. However, after she had been graduated from the Conservatory in late 1950s she decided to change her life vector, moved to Rome, started her activity as a cantautrice (female singer-songwriter) and produced her first singles. During this period, Lumini found success in collaboration with lyric writer Aldo Alberini and well-known Italian singers Mina Mazzini and Claudio Villa. Along with traditional vocal techniques, Lumini used the whistling technique, due to which she got the nickname “l’usignolo di Firenze” (“the Florentine nightingale”) and was invited by Ennio Morricone to whistle in the soundtrack of Lina Wertmüller’s “I Basilischi” (“The Lizards”, 1963). In 1960s a work in Gianni Bongiovanni’s Derby Club Cabaret (Milan) and a collaboration with the RCA (Radio Corporation of America) turned into the fields of Lumini’s creative activity. The acquaintanceship with Beppe Chierici, an actor, who would become her husband, lead to a new “folklore” stage of Lumini’s career. As a result of careful research of Italian folk music founded on the materials of Conservatory Santa Cecilia Library (Rome), the singer together with Beppe Chierici had produced several musical performances in the aesthetics of poor theater based on the Tuscan and Piedmontese songs of the XV–XIX centuries, as well as the Songs of Minstrels album based on the texts of the XII–XIV centuries. There was DaisyLumini’s gradual return to the environment of academic music in 1970s. Singer’s friendly communication with conductor Gianluigi Gelmetti, composers Franco Mannino, Domenico Guaccero and others, who represented Santa Cecilia Conservatory, has resulted in a number of creative collaborations. In 1973, even being immersed in ethnographic research, Daisy Lumini performed as mezzo-soprano in Franco Mannino’s “Il diavolo in giardino”. Another milestone in Daisy Lumini’s work became 1982, when director Roberto Scaparro invited the singer to participate in the Italian premiere of Luciano Berio’s “La vera storia”. In the opera, which is a creative reinterpretation of Verdi’s “Troubadour”, Daisy Lumini played the role of one of the cantastorie – singing storytellers or narrators describing and commenting events of the plot. Daisy Lumini achieved a real success as a performer of the post-avant-garde music in the 1980s, in collaboration with Salvatore Sciarrino. Daisy Lumini has premiered a great number of his chamber works, such as “Efebo con Radio”, “Canto degli specchi”, “Vanitas”, “Lohengrin” and some others. Conclusions. Although Daisy Lumini is an individual case, the phenomena and strategies discussed here may turn out to be symptomatic for contemporary music practice. Performers may rarely allow themselves to remain within the same intonational practice in the contemporary music art. It is especially important if it comes to the first performing of the post-avant-garde music that requires a certain congeniality of the performer and the author. The interaction of the composer and the performer is often a factor affecting the creation of a musical work at all stages, from the appearance of an idea for a premiere performance. The musician with a rich life experience and wide range of performing techniques may be considered as the co-author of the score.

Abstract:

Pontianak City has the potential for training and development of Malay cultural arts. The arts in West Kalimantan generally include dance, music, theater (folklore) and handicrafts. Special events in West Kalimantan will be the culmination of these arts and cultural performances, namely through festivals. This art can be used as a mainstay to face the ASEAN Economic Community. The final project of the Malay Art and Culture Hermitage of West Kalimantan aims to produce a special building design for Malay art and culture with the scope of cultural arts education, recreation, and tourism that can attract public interest. Design boundaries include the arts of music, dance, theater, crafts and cooking in West Kalimantan. The design method of the Malay Art and Culture Hermitage of West Kalimantan was carried out in several stages, namely ideas, data collection, identification, analysis, synthesis, and design development. The concept used in the design is based on the Facilities and Infrastructure Course and Training Institute Standards in 2017. Design analysis produces three functions, namely primary (education), secondary (administration, exhibition, performance) and tertiary (maintenance) functions. The result is that these three functions are combined in one into nine main buildings with a centralized organizational pattern of space, circular circulation, facades, and forms with Malay characteristics.

Abstract:

The discourses on Stevan Stojanović Mokranjac, as one of the most significant composers in the history of Serbian music, reflect not only our attitude towards the composer, but also toward ourselves and the community to which we belong. The objects of analysis in this item are the discourses on Mokranjac in the 21st century, particularly at the festival Mokranjčevi dani in Negotin. A deconstruction of the narratives which are an integral part of the festival, primarily keynote addresses, as well as articles about the festival in printed media and on websites, shows that Mokranjac is interpreted as an important symbol of Serbian identity. Since Mokranjac is mythologized as an original artist, a genius who sang 'from the very soul of the Serbian people, the glorification of Mokranjac, traditional folklore, and Eastern Orthodoxy grows into a large-scale glorification of the entire Serbian nation. In some other narratives, Mokranjac is understood as a cosmopolitan, a manager, and a potential brand that may help us make a better showing on the international stage and be used for building an identity based on 'European civic values'. These various 'faces' of Stevan Mokranjac reflect different ways in which music tradition, as a powerful means of identification, can be utilized, invented, selectively remembered, or in fact forgotten.

Abstract:

The article aimed to identify the specific features of vocal style in rock music. This issue is considered in a complex way proceeding from the integral system of vocal intonation in its origins and evolution. It is noted that the vocal component in rock music is a synthesis of diverse origins, among which the primary and comprehensive is the song beginning, presented in all the diversity of its manifestations. Being assimilated into the forms of professional music-making, which include rock music and its historically closest source – jazz, the song component in rock music becomes the basis of meaning expression, takes the stage forms of representation, supplemented with various visual and acoustic effects and comes out to the stadium spaces with audience of many thousands. For the first time, the article proposes a systematization of those dialectical processes that were resulted in vocal rock stylistics and determined its fundamental pluralism – verballinguistic and musical-intonation, combined with social indication characteristic of rock aesthetics The article supports the idea, that vocal stylistics is a two-component concept in which two levels of terminological generalization are combined – general (“stylistics” as a set of techniques and methods, by which a music composition is created) and specific (“vocal”, which is determined by the genus of the music and its performers as a functional basis of genre). Any stylistic phenomenon, despite its concreteness, is characterized by the qualities of a meta-system, which is reflected in such concepts as “historical stylistics”, “genre stylistics”, “national stylistics” (E. Nazaikinsky). The specific stylistics, derived from the “style of any kind of music” (V. Kholopova), has the same qualities. Among them there is the vocal style which is associated with the musical implementation of the speech line, including such different forms of intonation as recitative, declamation, cantilena, also the song itself as a musical genre that incorporates all the features of “musical speech” (B. Asafiev). Therefore, the song, as the primary genre in the system of vocal intonation, was produced in the syncretism of playful forms of musical art, which included music, dance, and ritual (J. Huizinga). Keeping the quality of “conservatism” (O. Sokolov), the song on the way of its historical and evolutionary development acquired wide range of forms, being performed in different stylistic conditions and in different genre interpretations. The most general unification of multiformity of the song culture is the theory of three layers (V. Konen), in each of which it is presented as primary vocal intonation. However, despite its general origins, arising from the formula “a voice is a person” (E. Nazaikinsky), vocal art within each of the three layers – folklore, academic and the “third” – is distinguished by a number of specific features. A certain differentiation is also observed within each stratum, which also applies to the “third”, which is distinguished as something middle between folklore and academic. In the most general terms, “non-academic” vocals are distributed between such types of “third” music (V. Syrov) as jazz, rock and pop music. This article offers a comparative characteristic of the peculiarities of the varietyized forms of vocal style in rock music and jazz. Along with the general aesthetic, communicative and technological aspects, significant differences are observed here. The main one is the dominance of the vocal beginning in rock music and instrumental in jazz. At the same time, having emerged on a semi-folklore basis, as well as under the influence of entertaining forms of dance youth music of the 50s of the last century (rock & roll, youth protest songs, soul, funk, etc.), rock music has developed its own system of vocal intonation, which is distinguished by: 1) the priority of word over the music; 2) a special approach to improvisation, the role of which is less significant in rock compositions than in instrumental jazz (the exception is scat improvisation); 3) the tendency towards the revival of the genre of “poems with music”, which is peculiar to the academic song culture of Europe in the late 19th – early 20th centuries. The article proves that the “whateverism” of rock (V. Zinkevich) is not only in the variety in the “intonemas”, which are used in it (E. Barban), but also in all kinds of “splitting” of the vocal and the instrumental rock compositions into genre and stylistic subspecies. Acceleration of the processes of assimilation and modification of the intonation complexes, due to the system of musical mass culture, allows observation, since the second half of the XX century, the different hybrid varieties (jazz-rock, folk-rock, etc.) and the relatively new forms of vocal and speech music (freestyle, fusion) making with the connection of dance and theatrical components (disco, hip-hop, rap, R&B). On this basis, the vocal rock style is formed, which, however, has its own specifics. It always tends to the synthesis of music and words, and the word is often a priority and defines the ideology of rock as of a system of ideological and artistic communication. Based on the abovementioned, the conclusions are about the presence of processes of dialectical interaction in the vocal style of rock of the general (patterns of vocal sound, forms of the relations between music and word, genre origins of prototypes) and the special (their realization, at the level of aesthetics and poetics, – rock as a “way of thinking” and “lifestyle”, according to V. Zinkevich). It is noted, that the study of these processes supposes referring to specific samples – styles and compositions of rock bands confessing different points of view due to their art and the role of the vocal component in it. As the perspective, the national aspects of vocal rock stylistics need the studying, including such a little researched one as the Ukrainian.

Abstract:

Introduction. The article examines the origins of Taiwanese piano art, its evolution, the influence of national and numerous non-national musical traditions. Until today, no special study devoted to the general panorama of these important processes has been created. The general picture of the formation and development of Taiwanese musical culture in the context of the political, economic and social situation is considered. The purpose of the article is to highlight the origins of Taiwanese piano art, which influenced its evolution, the process of introducing national and numerous non-national elements at the main stages of its formation and development. With the help of analytical, historical, comparative, interdisciplinary methods of research, a number of tasks are solved: the role of Western Christian missionaries in the development of musical education and piano art on the island is determined, the reasons why the Western classical music was accepted by the local society, the questions about the founders of the system of Western of classical music education, the programs and forms of learning in the first music schools in Taiwan, the names of the first Taiwanese composers-pianists are clarified; а periodization of the development of piano art in Taiwan is proposed. Results. The most important historical stages of the formation and development of Taiwanese piano art can be considered: – the period of its creation from the end of the 16th century to 1894; – the period of Japanese colonial rule from 1895 to 1945; – the period of development of national self-awareness, 1946–1986; – the period of reunification with mainland China from 1987. The proposed periodization makes it possible to reveal the entire historical and cultural context of the existence of piano art in Taiwan, to project its genetic settings for further stages of its development. Its basis was national folklore, but since the middle of the 16th century, the island was visited by Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch and Canadian colonists, and the first contacts of Western music with the indigenous population of Taiwan were made thanks to the activities of Western missionaries and were subordinated mainly to religious purposes. The stage of Japanese colonial rule was important for the development of piano art on the island. Due to the influence of Japan, Taiwanese musicians had further opportunities to join the system of Western classical music education, as the Japanese government was helping Taiwanese youth to obtain it. After 1920, Western classical music becomes popular in Taiwan; the formation of composer creativity in the field of piano music also takes place – the activities of such Taiwanese composers and pianists as Chiang Wen-Yeh, Chen Sizhi, Kuo Chih-Yuan, Kao Tzu-Mei and others. In the years 1946–1986, we observe the further development of performing and teaching activities at the island, a bright burst of creativity by such composers as Chang-Hui Hsu, Hsiao Tyzen, Shui-Long Ma and others. After 1987, active musical contacts between China and Taiwan contribute to the further progress of the island’s piano art. The piano works of Taiwanese composers Shih-Hui Chen, Fan-Ling Su, Chien-Yu Huang and others are widely popularized. In recent decades, the performing activities of Taiwanese pianists, represented in the international space by the names of Chien-Yu Huang, Yi Chih Lu, Chiu Tze Lin and many others, have become very active. Today, the piano art of Taiwan is the most important part of not only Chinese, but also world music culture. Conclusions. The study of the origins of the piano art of Taiwan, the periods of its development, ways of refracting different musical traditions will help to understand both the historical-theoretical and aesthetic-pedagogical and artistic significance of this phenomenon in musical art. The most important events in the social and cultural life of Taiwan, since the end of the 16th century, indirectly affected the development of national piano art, which underwent qualitative changes connected with the emergence of new musical forms and means of expression, the methods of using the national and Western compositional techniques. The prospect of further study of the topic consists in a more detailed study of the modern stage of developing piano art in Taiwan and clarifying the influence of its extensive genetic roots on the compositional and performing creativity of representatives of Taiwanese musical culture.
