Abstract
The previous issues of the journal featured publications of lectures about such outstanding 20th century Russian composers as Sergei Rachmaninoff, Igor Stravinsky, Sergei Prokofi ev, Nikolai Myaskovsky, Dmitri Shostakovich and Aram Khachaturian. This series is continued with a lecture about the music of Georgy Sviridov. After a general characterization of his musical legacy (in the preamble), the respective sections of the fi rst part of the lecture (The Musical Oeuvres of Sviridov in the Mid-20th Century, The Musical Oeuvres of Sviridov in the 1960s and 1970s, the Late Oeuvres of Sviridov) examines the foundational principles of the composer’s vivid individual style and evaluates the signifi cance of his contribution to the treasury of Russian art of the middle and second half of the 20th century. During the exposition of the lecture fragments of his musical compositions are presented for analysis in performances recommended by the author, in their sum, providing a perspective of the most substantial aspects of Sviridov’s musical legacy.
