Abstract

The published material opens with a cycle of lectures titled “Musical Intonation.” The first of them illuminates such theoretical issues as the concept of intonation, the means of its sound design (the constructive — the motive, phrase, consonance, sound; the textural — in monophony and polyphony), and its semantics. Demonstration is made of “objectivity,” manifested by intonation (the figurative spheres of the Human Being, World, Music). It is discovered that the spheres of expressiveness are “modeled” in intonation as such or in various combinations. Thus, the semantic core of a larger component of musical content is formed — the musical image. The existence of musical intonation in an artistic opus is mobile, which makes it possible to characterize it as a poly-semantic and polymorphic phenomenon. The subsequent lectures will demonstrate such aspects of musical intonation as its genre-related and stylistic properties, its aesthetic and dramatic features, as well as its ability to exist in a historical and cultural context.
