Collective creativity is demonstrated as an objective characteristic feature in the process of the creation and performance of a musical-theatrical composition. Five factors are determined, all of which impact the manifestation of collective authorship in real or hidden form: the historical, professional, spiritual-moral, biographic and culturological. It is proved that co-authorship, of which traditionally a negative attitude has been formed, has played an important role on various stages of the development of the genre. The significance of collective authorship in opera is stipulated by the specific traits of the art of music as a form of creativity of a collective nature and its existence within the context of a developing culture.

The administrative and economic status of the main outpost of the Russian Far East made it possible to accumulate towards the early 20th century a cultural potential necessary for the formation of a cultural milieu. In 1909 upon the initiative of the local intelligentsia a new musical infrastructure with governmental subsidy was created – a section of the IRMS. The local section immediately took the leading position in the musical life of Vladivostok and the Primorsky Region, while the coordinating and material assistance of the center were conducive to a purposeful preparation of musical personnel for teaching and concertizing activities. Emphasis is made that among the cities of the Russian Far East Vladivostok possessed the most developed and diverse organizational structure in the sphere of musical enlightenment and performance. A substantial influence on the effective work of the local section of the IRMS was exerted by the directorship of the musical Society, which in many ways determined the sociocultural field of the capital of the Primorsky Region of those years. The activities of the Vladivostok Section were carried out as the result of the synthesis of the sociocultural processes of the Russian Empire and the regional characteristic features and served as a foundation for musical-educational and cultural-enlightening system within the country up to the present day.

The proposed integrative model for the semantic space of music originated as a generalization of some analogous theoretical results obtained earlier by other researchers. The methods discussed in the article including, in particular, the basic ideas of such fields of research as set theory, the theory of probabilities and the theory of information, as well as the principles of soft computing, make it possible to elicit the premises of these scholarly branches in more traditional manifestations of music theory. The considered theoretical ideas and generalizations are remarkable as a basis for the precise study of various components of the system of musical thinking, including its synaesthetic area. The last of these aspects is important in the modeling of synaesthesia as a special case of virtual reality by means of computer technology and, thus, the use of music as a source of such realities. In connection with the ideas of direct inclusion of the visual range in music by computer means, such modeling becomes important not only for the synthetic forms of artistic activity with the participation of music, but also for the art of music itself. The authors of the article also touch upon some aspects of application of mathematical approaches to music in the sphere of musical education.

It was particularly during those years in the content and amplitude of its concert activities, Kiev could be compared with such musical centers as Moscow and St. Petersburg. Examination is made of the components of Vinogradsky’s concert programs, which included the music of the most diverse epochs and schools. His role in popularizing the musical legacy of Beethoven and Tchaikovsky is emphasized. All of Beethoven’s symphonies received performances under the direction of Vinogradsky: thus, in Kiev he performed the First, Third, Fourth and Sixth Symphony, as well as “Manfred,” “Francesco da Rimini,” and other works by Tchaikovsky. The peculiarities of the conducting style of Vinogradsky are examined in this article for the first time not only in the aspect of interpretation, but also in the plan of the visual manner of his performances. Numerous opinions of the critics are cited, both the Russian critics (St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kiev, Odessa, Kharkov) and those from other countries – including those in which Vinogradsky toured numerous times (Germany, France). Emphasis is made of Vinogradsky’s role in the formation of musical education in Kiev, particularly, the establishment of the Kiev Conservatory.

The most recent research carried out by psychology, pedagogy and philosophy has established that the contribution provided by musical training for an integral and harmonious development of the human being is of paramount importance due to the uniqueness and specific results it offers. The present work takes as an initial reference the poetics of musical structures for the sake of developing methodologies of training focused on the human being. The essence of this proposal underlies an authentic dialogue between different areas of knowledge and the structuring of strategies centered on the human being. OBJECTIVES. The main objective of this study is to propose from the position of a dialogical vision of university education the experience of a methodology centered on music as a means of provoking and arousing the dynamics of encounter, which provides the student with a comprehensive training experience. The secondary objective is to analyze the internal consistency and the validity of the construct “Music for Encounters” (ME), and the satisfaction of the students with implemented Methodology. METHOD. The activity is carried out in the manner typical of the university students for the Master’s Degree in Teaching at the Francisco de Vitoria University. The data are processed based on indicators of reliability, such as Alpha de Cronbach, as well as descriptive analysis, correlational analysis and exploratory factor analysis (AFE). RESULTS. The results show more satisfactory internal consistency indices (a general reliability of 0.886). The correlations between the factors of the instruments are significant and high. The AFE seems to indicate the presence of a single construct based on two correlated factors. The satisfaction of the students is very high (M = 5.6, SD = 0.6 out of 6). DISCUSSION. These results seem to show the adequate measurement of the ME construct in university students, based on the instrument of measurement developed for this purpose and their satisfaction with the methodology implemented.

The author characterizes the general cultural processes typical for the beginning stage of musical education and enlightenment in Russia. Analysis is made of the premises for the development of musical culture in Saratov (the creation of theaters, symphony and chamber orchestras, closed concerts, etc.), which are conditioned by the cultural traditions established in the aristocratic milieu. The traditions of household music-making and the practice of concert performance were actively developed during the period of creation of the Saratov Section of the IRMS. The gubernias witness the formation of the foundations of professional musical education (Musical Classes – the Musical College – the Saratov Conservatory); concert practice acquires a systematic character; the repertoire of performed musical compositions expands and enriches substantially. The significance is shown of the important cultural public figures of the Saratov gubernia actively aiding the establishment of the Saratov Section of the IRMS and, consequently, the development and flourishing of musical culture in the region and in the country, in general (Mikhail Galkin-Vraskoy, Yuri Obolensky, Nikolai Bakhmetev).

A broad overview of the present phenomenon, based on study of printed and manuscript documents from the funds of the Russian National Museum of Music and the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art is offered. The emergence of the phenomenon of specialized concert agencies in Europe dates back to the 1870s and the 1880s. The period of the most fruitful interaction between the Moscow Section of the IRMS and concert directorates in other countries, especially, the most large-scale concert agency of the final fourth of the 19th and the first third of the 20th centuries, the Concert Directorate of Hermann Wolff, occurred during the years 1890–1913. In connection with the toughening competition between the orchestral assemblies of the RMS in Moscow and concerts of other philharmonic organizations, the head of the Moscow directorate Vassily Safonov established a stable business relationship with his partners in concert management abroad, which subsequently expanded and solidified, which eventually led to the intensification of connections between Russian musicians and those of other countries. The outlined scholarly direction discloses new perspectives for study of the phenomenon of the musical culture of the Silver Age.
