Special attention is paid by researchers to compositions which have not received scholarly comprehension in musicology. Little known biographical facts, information pertaining to the history of the creation and performance of musical compositions, as well as the aspects of their conception-related solutions and their features of style and genre are touched upon. Characterization is given to the orchestral works by representatives of the musical culture of the USA (Roy Harris, George Antheil), the United Kingdom (Christian Darnton), France (Aubert Lemeland), Israel (Marc Lavry), Bulgaria (Alexander Yossifov) and Czechia (Jaroslav Doubrava). Artistic evaluation is given to the works written in the genres of cantata, oratorio, and musical theater by the composers of Germany (Helmut Ritter), USA (Elias Tanenbaum), the United Kingdom (Elisabeth Maconchy), Brazil (Cláudio Santoro), Denmark (Kim Helweg) and Czechia (Václav Dobiáš). It is noted that composers from other countries distanced from the place of the conduct of hostilities territorially and chronologically are endowed with a certain amount of poster qualities in the musical Rossica. They operate with the musically manifested categories of Evil vs. Good and to a great degree have a tendency towards expressionist figurative accents. At the same time, the reflection of the subject matter of the Stalingrad battle is stipulated by a need for a publicistically sharp indication of the values and the perception of the tangency of personal fate with history.","PeriodicalId":490103,"journal":{"name":"Проблемы музыкальной науки","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135409343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A radically different and innovative method of music therapy is based on musical or music-like stimulation that is generated by a computer on the basis of feedback signals from the patient’s own physiological characteristic features. The advantages and prospects of this innovative method are examined here and an evaluation is given of the effectiveness of computer-aided transformations of the patient’s brain biopotentials into musical or music-like effects, which are used in the adaptive neuro-stimulation technology developed by the authors with feedback from the current electroencephalogram (EEG) parameters.

The genre-based basis of the composition, the timbral and dynamic levels of the artistic system are researched in correspondence with this aim. The following elements are situated within the author’s range of vision: the stratified textural phenomena and their block varieties, which essentially transform the image of the score: modulation processes based on effects of suddenness and unexpectedness. The later become characteristic patterns of a montage type of dramaturgy and also a testimony of the connection between the mastery of textural statuary art with the cinematographic art, which has proved itself very fruitful for Kancheli’s symphonic genre. This connection is examined in the article under the angle of coverage of the principle of mutability of texture as a constantly changing substance. This provides a demonstration of new methods of cohesion of textural plans capable of conveying the contradictions and paradoxes of the contemporary world in a musical text.","PeriodicalId":490103,"journal":{"name":"Проблемы музыкальной науки","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135104966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The novelty of the research is determined by the method of analysis of archaic text models by applying the principle of symmetry. In the article the unique composition of the verbal text in the masterpieces of the early Russian monophonic chants, the origins of which go back to the Byzantine tradition of the 7th and 8th centuries AD, is examined for the first time. The repetitive identical syntactical constructions — the elements unconnected to the plot — are combined into a complex polytextual structure. The stichera Come, Let Us Thank Joseph is based on the interaction of plot and non-plot elements. The rhythm of the form in its line composition of end-to-end development is created by the periodic symmetry of threefold repetition. The group of small texts representing the direct speech of the characters: Joseph, Mary, and Simeon the God-Receiver is embedded in the “large text”: the call to prayer and the prayer of believers. The author of the article describes it with a mathematical formula, and offers a geometric analogue in the form of a gnomon — a figure suggested by Greek mathematician Heron of Alexandria in the second half of the 1st century AD. The archaic text code of the stichera has traversed from century to century and acquired a modern sound due to the expressive means corresponding to the musical stylistic system of the epoch. The polished text models provide canonical ritual chants with centuries-old functioning in the form of the variant multitude of musical compositions.","PeriodicalId":490103,"journal":{"name":"Проблемы музыкальной науки","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135104968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The attention bestowed on such artists makes it possible to approach the understanding of music as an endeavor of transcending, which forms by itself the highest value. Neglecting the latter in the process of mastery of the art of music leads people to “one-dimensionality,” making them admittedly on the decline. When immersing in the inner world of the composer-philosopher or the philosopher-composer, the recipient, essentially, studies the depths of his or her own self, actualizing the dialogue of the artist and the valuator. The criteria for the genuine character of such a dialogue is formed particularly by the process of transcending, under the sign of which music appears in the guise of a meta-philosophical genre. When mastering the dialectics of being realized by musical means of expression, the human being acquires a unity of essence and existence. The authors turn to the personality of Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, considering it appropriate to examine him as a composer-philosopher. Constructing a system of argumentation, they turn their attention towards the great musician’s reading circle, his cultural preferences and antipathies, his students, who manifested themselves in the sphere of philosophical knowledge and in the sphere of the art of music, as well as the musical compositions which have reflected the master’s philosophical ideas. In conclusion, it is emphasized that the study of the musical legacy of the composers-philosophers and the philosophers-composers would help overcome the discontinuity between life and art, when music, remaining aside from the everyday realities experienced by the human being, turn out to be incapable of inspiring him to spiritual wakefulness. As a result, its mission is narrowed down to adornment of everyday life, which inevitably leads to the primitivization of music itself and of the individuals consuming it. Turning to the experience of being of the composers-philosophers would make it possible to overcome this vicious circle.","PeriodicalId":490103,"journal":{"name":"Проблемы музыкальной науки","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135105288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The book has become a milestone in the scholarly work of the author herself, who has demonstrated herself as a mature and extraordinary researcher of Russian folk music. The fundamental nature of the research, the radical novelty of the methodology and the credibility of the scholarly results have provided this work with a groundbreaking character. It has become a reference study for music scholars, who have pursued structural and typological methods of research for many years, and has maintained this status to the present day. The book includes a compilation of almost 180 examples of vocal lamentations from the Vologda region pertaining to funerals, recruitments and weddings (solo cries of the brides and cries sung by choral ensembles of girls). At the core of the monograph lies a detailed study of this phenomenon. Its goal is to present the local tradition of vocal lamentations as a holistic phenomenon endowed with a systematic organization. The structural-typological method has been chosen as the main research tool; its chief theorist and proponent in Soviet ethnomusicology of the second half of the 20th century was Eugeny Gippius, who had everted an immense influence on the formation of Efimenkova as a musicologist. In Severnorusskaya prichet' [Northern Russian Lamentations] Gippius’s ideas of structural-systematic approach to the study of folk music have found its practical manifestation for the first time. A significant role in the study of the East Vologda region is assigned to the arealogical method. As the result of this, six published geographical maps have provided the first example of geographical mapping of Russian folk vocal lamentations.","PeriodicalId":490103,"journal":{"name":"Проблемы музыкальной науки","volume":"2014 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135104963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A characteristic feature of this work is the specific constructive idea associated with the composer’s special approach to the choice of musical material and the means of its development. It is referred to the disclosure of the potential of one single pitch. The author of the article proposes to apply the term of the outstanding Russian painter and art theorist Vassily Kandinsky: “one-tone composition,” in order to characterize this technique. Based on the comparative method, the article provides an examination of the successive connection of this composition with one of the orchestral works from Korndorf’s early musical period and presents a description for the first time of the most important compositional principles of In D. The idea of repetition, observed in the organization of this musical composition, is interpreted by the author of the article as one of the leading elements in it. The article describes a number of other structural ideas that connect Korndorf’s musical style directly with some of the well-known 20th century compositional techniques, such as serialism and Klangfarbenmelodie. The article substantiates the point of view that the composition In D demonstrates a certain number of invariable techniques regularly found in Korndorf’s artistic method.","PeriodicalId":490103,"journal":{"name":"Проблемы музыкальной науки","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135104775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
