THE REVELATION BY VLADIMIR CIOLAC: REFLECTION OF THE SACRED SUBJECTS BY NEO-ARCHAIC MEANS
Abstract
The article is devoted to the new work Revelaţie (Revelation) for string orchestra by the Moldovan composer Vladimir Cholak and is an analytical study revealing the symbolism of its title in the context of the basic concept of the composition. It is based on the idea of an individual artistic solution, oriented both to the objective and subjective perception of religious and philosophical themes and reflecting the principles of the modern trends of creating new simplicity by means of music. The author touches upon the problems associated with understanding the "new sacred space", with the cosmism of thinking, and, as a result, with the appeal to the neoarchaic and archetypes of ancient chants, transferred to the atmosphere of contemporary instrumental music making.
