Abstract
Alexander I. Demchenko is well known to the musicological community and art lovers as the author of numerous books on various aspects of artistic creativity. His new monograph (Appassionata, Essays on Beethoven’s Music, Commemorating the 250th Anniversary of his Birth. Monograph. Moscow, 2021. 164 p.), addressed both to specialists and a broad circle of connoisseurs of the art of music, is focused entirely on analysis of the content-semantic essence of the artistic heritage of the great composer, to which all the cited facts of his life and consideration of the means of musical expression are subordinated. The core of the presentation is embodied in the works of Beethoven the basic essence of human existence (life activities, lyrical feelings, repose) and what determines the leading constants of Beethoven's attitude to the world (heroic moods, drama, epos).
