Abstract
The article is devoted to studying of context as a sense-forming basis for an artistic and creative process. The concept of context is analyzed; some specifics of its interpretation in various spheres of scientific knowledge are revealed; features of this phenomenon’s projection to the musical art area are disclosed. The author justifies the idea that the artistic context should be considered as a complex system that includes two interconnected subsystems. The first one comprises common sociocultural determinants; the second one integrates immanent artistic and creative components. The article focuses on the movements of the both designated subsystems within the coordinates of historical traditions and current trends. The standard typology of a context is given, those its kinds which are the most significant for the musical art are pointed out, and their content is described in detail. Special attention is paid to the artistic context in its synchronic and diachronic manifestations, which correspond to the problem of traditions and innovations. The author suggests an approach to comprehension of these complex phenomena, which, along with other factors, design the artistic context of the epoch.
