INTERPRETATION OF A. KOS-ANATOLSKIY9S CHORAL WORKS IN A MODERN PERFORMING CONTEXT

Abstract

The choral heritage of A. Kos-Anatolskyy is a significant component of the Ukrainian national musical culture of the 20 th century, in which the folklore basis, lyricism, genre diversity and deep patriotic and spiritual expressiveness are organically combined. In modern conditions of the renewal of concert and educational practice, caused by the development of digital technologies, changes in performance strategies and the actualization of cultural memory, there is a need to understand the ways of adapting this heritage to the requirements of the 21 st century. The problem of preserving artistic authenticity during the modern stage embodiment of the composer9s works requires special attention, which is a challenge for both conductors and teachers and choral groups. The purpose of the study is a comprehensive analysis of the choral work of A. Kos-Anatolsky as a component of the national musical heritage, identifying modern approaches to its interpretation and adaptation in the concert and educational environment, as well as outlining the problems associated with preserving artistic authenticity in the modern stage context. The work uses an interdisciplinary approach that encompasses historical and cultural, genre and style, comparative and performance and interpretation analysis. Elements of musicological analytics, observation of the activities of choral groups, analysis of modern concert programs, repertoire trends and educational initiatives are used. The study shows that the adaptation of A. KosAnatolsky's choral heritage to the requirements of the modern choral environment is carried out in several directions: interpretative renewal of works with the involvement of modern choral technology and stage direction; multimedia enrichment of performances; integration of works into curricula and pedagogical practices; popularization of heritage in the digital space. At the same time, a number of problems related to the preservation of the composer's authentic style have been identified, in particular the risk of excessive modernization, loss of national flavor, emotional sincerity and
folklore intonation, which are fundamental features of his musical language. The need for scientifically based interpretative strategies capable of harmoniously combining tradition and innovation has been highlighted.
