MODERN OPERA HOUSE AS A SUBJECT OF MUSICOLOGIST STUDIES: MUSICAL, HISTORICAL AND INTERPRETATION ASPECTS
Abstract
The aim of the article is to identify the fundamental principles, artistic parameters and value-semantic guidelines of the modern opera house, considered in a wide musicological discursive field. To study the socio-aesthetic role of artistic value, theoretical parameters for considering the relationship and mutual influence of the phenomena of theater and opera are formed. The methodology of the work is determined by a system of historical and theoretical approaches, each of which is represented by a complex of methods based on the combination of such methodological approaches as musical and historical, interpretive, opera study, theater studies, textological and semiological. The scientific novelty is in the substantiation and systematization of approaches to the study of the phenomenon of modern opera house, within the framework of which the repertoire factography of modern European and Chinese opera houses is created. New interpretative possibilities and directorial decisions are revealed, due to the expansion of artistic and creative boundaries of the opera house as one of the leading sociocommunicative mechanisms of the modern musical and cultural space. Conclusions. Based on this, we can conclude that the modern opera house, as a phenomenon derived from musical theater, basically contains reliance on the relatedness of the musical and theatrical components of the action, since in this type of theater they are an indissoluble unity; direct connection with the historical past, with the cultural and historical traditions that nourished it, together with possible cultural influences from outside; the concentration of theatrical action around the protagonist with an in-depth description of his inner world, psycho-emotional states around which the main event outline of the composition unfolds. The opera house occupies an important place in the musical and historical process and acquires the significance of one of the most powerful socio-cultural institutional mechanisms of culture, exerting a significant impact on the formation of the value-semantic dominants of culture and the personal consciousness of a person.
