CHURCH WORKS BY M. BEREZOVSKY IN THE INTERPRETATION AURUM OF POST-AUTHOR EDITIONS

Abstract

It is noted that the prospects for studying this topic are to find out the reasons and methods of later editing of the original author's text in all choral works of Berezovsky, which were published during the XIX - early XX centuries, as well as in the publication of original versions that were created by the author and sung during his life. The second fundamental difference between the manuscript and published versions of the Concert is associated with the use of accidentals, which in some cases are added, and in others – removed. The addition of accidentals occurs in the overwhelming majority of cases in the chords of the subdominant group used in S – D idioms, which leads to their transformation into a double dominant, and also while transfer from the tonic to subdominant in minor keys, which creates the effect of a short-term transition to a new tonal center. Consequently, M. Berezovsky's harmonic innovations, referred to by many modern researchers, are the result of a later editorial revision.
