Abstract

At the beginning of its professional development the Ukrainian piano music was actively fed by folk sources. The oldest ritual samples of the calendar cycle, including the traditional spring songs,were reflected in the composer’s work (usually for children) from the first decades of the twentieth century. The synthesized spring song genre, which combined the song, the dance and the pantomime, was attracting everyone first of all by its cheerful mood and optimism. And also, in the context of style evolution, the broad possibilities of combining the modern means of writing.The modern composers continue to take inspiration from ritual folk art. The article analyzes the piano suite by Mykola Lastovetskiy, created on the theme of the choices of the children’s folk song “Come out, come out the sun”. The five parts of the suite are combined with the creative method of quoting the song, the “sunny” theme of the names. However, they differ by transformations of the spring motif, figurative character, the use of genre varieties and style orientation. “Small“Sunny”Suite” by M. Lastovetsky is combined into the context of folk/ritual piano workings by Ukrainian composers of different generations. The method of citing singing of these samples has always been linked to authors with wide possibilities of creative experiments. Like his predecessors, M. Lastovetskiy skillfully adapted the folklore genre to the modern musical language, and at the same time built an independent artistic plan of a cyclical work associated with the symbol of the sun as a revitalization.The pedagogical and educational costs of using such type of works in the educational process were noted. Through the attraction to the rich spiritual heritage of our nation there are revealed peculiarities of the outlook of older generations, which are teaching to remember our valuable traditions.
