Abstract

The purpose of the article is to identify the manifestations of lyricism as one of the main paradigms of artistic thinking in the context of modern symphony and to introduce into scientific circulation the revealed patterns in the compositional and stylistic organization of the Fourth Symphony “Lirica” by E. Stankovich. Research methodology is based on the application of interdisciplinary and intonational analyzes. The scientific novelty is an attempt to concretize the concept of “lyrics” in accordance with the modern symphonic creativity of Ukrainian composers and to introduce into scientific circulation the observations on the patterns of stylistic organization in the Fourth Symphony of E. Stankovich “Lirica”. Poetry as a substantive core, announced by the composer in the name of one of the most significant works, which is his Fourth Symphony, to some extent expands the idea of both the concepts of “symphony” and “lyrics” in their modern reading and Stankovich’s authorial style. Conclusions.

Weighing the scale of the idea and its embodiment, the generalization of the content addressed to one of the most humanistic themes – the being of the soul, the richness of aspects of reflection of the chosen issues, extremely differentiated, branched and at the same time holistic system of expressive means. of the last century. As for the answer to the question that there is poetry for Stankovich, it should be noted: Stankovic is a composer for whom the understanding of the world and himself in it, transformed into sound images, always occurs on the border of lyrical, that is completely free, self-sufficient, deeply personal and unique selfexpression. In this sense, all the composer’s work is in the realm of lyrics, and the Symphony “Lirica” is the quintessence of his stylistic and stylistic features.
