Abstract

The article offers the analysis of the Sixth
symphony by Askold F. Murov "Musical oblations
to all the Saints who shone in Russian
land". It references the circumstances of its
artistic conception, its original position among
other works written in this genre, its structure
and the principles of its compositional develolopment.
This composition has been completed
in 1991; it embodies a special type of communicative
strategy in which the composer formulates
his own personal alternative to historical
understanding of reality. He confronts such
understanding with his views on the constancy
of moral laws of existence.

Keywords: Russian land music, Siberian composers, the 20th century symphony, program music
