Chamber vocal works by Ivan Karabyts in the Ukrainian musicological discourse

Abstract

The purpose of the article is to characterize the most significant works of Ukrainian scientists dedicated to the chamber vocal music by Ivan Karabytsand to identify promising areas for further study. The methodology involves the use of theoretical, systematic, and analytical methods to characterize the scientific works of Ukrainian scientists, which examines the chamber vocal works by Ivan Karabyts. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the identification of promising areas of research of chamber vocal and pop song creativity by Ivan Karabyts as a representative component of Ukrainian music of the second half of the 20^th century. Conclusions. In modern Ukrainian musicology, the work by I. Karabyts is incompletely presented: the least researched to date are his chamber vocal works and pop songs are almost unstudied, although this musical layer is representative of both the composer’s work and Ukrainian music of the second half of the 20^th century. Among the scientific works of Ukrainian researchers, the most important are the dissertations by O. Haluzevska and O. Hurkova, in which the issues of musical poetics and stylistic features of several vocal cycles by I. Karabyts were considered. Among the promising areas of research of chamber vocal works of the composer are the interaction of verbal and musical components, the interpenetration of elements of academic and non-academic music, the processes of stylistic synthesis.
