MUSICAL SPACE AND WORKS OF UKRAINIAN COMPOSERS IN THE ASPECT OF STYLISTIC DIALOGUE

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to determine the value-semantic importance of the creative works of Ukrainian composers as an artistic and meaningful foundation of the music art of Ukraine. The article reveals the domination of the laws of polyphonic musical thinking, which determines the origin and specificity of music language of Ukrainian contemporary composers, as well as the direction of its evolution. The methodology of the study consists in the use of the principles of the system and musical-historical methods, as well as the method of musical and stylistic analysis. This methodological framework makes it possible to review a wide and inhomogeneous, in the aspect of style, space of compositional practice in modern Ukraine from the point of view of organizing function of polyphonic thinking. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the systematization of the polyphonic laws of musical thinking as a style coordinate of contemporary musical creation. In this case, polyphony is understood as a general principle of musical thinking as a whole, which is the basis of constructive and artistic music art from its origin. Conclusions. The variety of musical styles and genres of contemporary Ukrainian composer's creation (V. Silvestrov, M. Skorik, Y. Ishchenko, A. Kozarenko, K. Tsepkolenko, Y. Gomelskaya) present the various aspects of implementation of polyphonic patterns. Each of the composers finds new expressive possibilities of polyphony in the context of today's musical thinking. The composers consider polyphony as the basis of artistic thinking, which is always relevant to the stylistic evolution of music – up to the "polyphonic Renaissance" of the XX century.
