Abstract

The paper aims to reveal peculiarities of the Chinese orchestral performance development during and after the Cultural Revolution. The author examines classical musical compositions of the analysed period, identifies their distinctive features and considers the state influence on the Chinese musical ensembles. Scientific originality of the study lies in the fact that the researcher provides a comprehensive analysis of orchestral activity during the Cultural Revolution; this problem remains poorly investigated in the modern Chinese musicology. Contrary to the established opinion, the mentioned period is not considered as a dead-end branch of China development, which allows offering a new interpretation of orchestral creativity. The research findings are as follows: the author proves that the Cultural Revolution is not a stagnation period in orchestral performance development but an epoch of innovations.
