Reception of the poem «Do not sing, beauties with me» O.S. Pushkin in the music of the XIX and XX centuries

Abstract

The purpose of article is to consider musical interpretations of A.S. Pushkin «Do not sing, a beauty with me» through the prism of the receptive approach, revealing the specifics of the implementation of this poem in selected romances of composers of the ХІХ and ХХ centuries. Methodology. The basis of this study is the system-semiological method; аlso, comparative, analytical and genre-nominative approaches are used in the work. The scientific novelty of the study is determined by the inadequate elaboration of the receptive approach in the musicological literature, and also by the attempt to present the poem by A.S. Pushkin «Do not sing, beauty with me» as an open work for composer interpretations, revealing its semantic mobility. Conclusions. Pushkin’s poem «Do not sing, a beauty with me» is an implicitly constructed text containing a conditional (final) meaning for a new reception event. This allows us to talk about the embodiment of the principles of the so-called creative or productive reception, the result of which is the emergence of a new composition. This reception clearly and convincingly reflects the dialogic nature of art, which is based on the principle of potential co-creation.
