FOLKLORE PLOT IN THE GENRES OF TRADITIONAL AND ACADEMIC KAZAKH MUSIC

Abstract

In the genres of Kazakh traditional and academic music, folklore plots are widely represented.A special place in the creativity of the art figures is occupied, first of all, by the ancient kuys, which «passed»through time and space. Vitality, multivariance, musical features, inter-genre, inter-section interaction,continuity of «movement» from generation to generation determined the main goal of the article: to studyin time and space the manifestations of the legend and music of the «Aksak Kulan» kuy in traditional andacademic genres. In accordance with this goal, the article reflects interdisciplinary connections (kuy studies,musicology, art history, folklore, literary criticism). Kuy «Aksak Kulan» for the first time is comprehensivelyconsidered from the point of view of a folklore plot in order to determine intergenre, interbranch, interculturalcontinuity, which indicates scientific and practical significance and can be used in the research, performing arts,and composer creativity. Based on the works of the researchers who studied Kazakh traditional and academicmusic, methods of complex and comparative study were applied. Summarizing, we would emphasize: since themusical language of dombra art is closely connected with legends, the process of its formation and developmentfrom the very beginning through the synthesis of words and music predetermined new opportunities for pairingwith other types of art. At the same time, dombra music, originating in an inextricable connection with thelegend, and is presented as a phenomenon that is continuously developing in time and space, transferring,besides the reflection in gesture, in dance, into synthesis with the genres of academic composer music, theaterand cinema art, poetry and prose.
