Abstract

The article traces both the birth of the programmatic principle in the Russian piano miniature and a gradual transition from its purely mimetic forms to more complex ones. Some littleknown and forgotten pieces by piano composers are researched as examples of so-called “trivial” music. General trends in an entire development of the national music, which was in many aspects formed under the influence of the concert practice, are highlighted.
