ON THE DICHOTOMY PROBLEM IN THE MUSIC WORLD OF THE PERSON

Abstract

The article discusses the new conceptual construct of musical psychological science - the “music world of the person”. In our opinion, the music world is the world of music in the person and it is intended for the person, which includes self-development, self-education, and self-determination of the personality, and which is an open reflexive space of mentality of the specific person. The music world of the personality can be presented conditionally in the form of two interconnected, interdependent, but different realities. The first of them symbolizes one’s own, subjective experience (feeling) of various modalities (hearing, tactile, visual) during the composition, execution, perception and assessment of pieces of music as special condition of an organism. The second identifies the creation and construction of an artistic image as the behaviour of the subject of musical activity in a certain sound space. The possibility of constructing in mentality such a space is set to the person by nature, but can and has to be developed in musical activity as vital for him. Studying the features of construction and functioning of the music world of the personality creates opportunities for the development of human consciousness, and for the birth of the new in human musical culture.
