Research Works in Contemporary Music in the Musicological School of Valentina Kholopova
Main Article Content
Abstract
Valentina Nikolayevna Kholopova is celebrated for her accomplishments as a specialist in contemporary music,
a writer of innovative research works on 20th century musical rhythm, the music of Webern, Schnittke, Gubaidulina,
Shchedrin, and many other composers. Consequently, the themes of the diploma theses, dissertations and books by
her students are predominantly focused on 20th century music, manifesting the emergence of an entire new school
of musical research works of that type. It is possible to observe the attention towards well-known composers from
the previous century (Stravinsky, Schnittke, Gubaidulina, Tishchenko, Vorontsov), but also research has been made
on the musical legacy of unduly neglected composers – Sergei Protopopov (Anton Rovner) and Nikolai Obouhov
(Nino Barkalaya). Among the composers from other countries studied in the class of Kholopova, for the first time in
the USSR and Russia there were works written about Messiaen, Xenakis, Gorecki, Vieru, Mansuryan and groups of
composers from West Germany (Lachenmann, Rihm, Schnebel, Trojan, Dadelsen), Hungary (Kurtag, Szollosi, Durko,
Lange), as well as jazz and pop music. After completion of their studies, the graduates from the professor’s class wrote
numerous topical books in various languages: Ivanka Stoianova wrote about Berio and Stockhausen, Tatiana Frantova
– about polyphony in Schnittke’s music, Rosa Sultanova – about contemporary musical rituals among the peoples of
Central Asia, Natalia Vlasova – about Schoenberg and Zemlinsky, Elena Mikhalchenkova-Spirina – about Kancheli,
Ekaterina Akishina – about Schnittke, Olga Ozerskaya – about Vorontsov, and Andrei Kudryashov wrote a textbook
on the theory of musical content. In addition to the aforementioned names, Kholopova’s students include professors
Ekaterina Dulova, Dina Kirnarskaya, Boris Gnilov and Irina Lozovaya.
Keywords: Russian musicology, academic school, contemporary music, diploma works, dissertations for degrees
of Candidate of Arts and Doctor of Arts, monographic works, textbooks.
