The Image of Space in the Works of Russian Composers

Main Article Content

Natella V. Tchakhvadze

Abstract

The author views the works of Russian composers are
from the standpoint of specific perception of time and
space which is different from the Western. The author
insists that Russian composers created the image of space
which is limitless. Such space is perceived as meditative,
visible, individual, concrete and objectal. The author presents
the architectonic character of Russian music as the
manifestation of mythic-poetic tradition.

Keywords: Russian music, Russian mentality, musical
perception, space in music, mythic-poetic chronotop
