Musical Performance in the Context of the Phenomenon of Postmodernist Musical Culture

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to reveal the features and trends of modern musical performance through the prism of the phenomenon of postmodern musical culture. The research methodology. The analytical method is applied; a systematic method enables the examination of postmodern musical culture as a whole; the historical method and the method of cultural analysis, which contributed to the understanding of the ways of forming and developing musical performance, as well as of the essence of musical performance as a socio-cultural phenomenon; method of theoretical generalisation. Scientific novelty. Characteristic features of musical postmodernism are analysed; features and trends of the development of modern musical performance in the context of postmodern culture are revealed; the problem of performing interpretation is considered through the prism of the concept of postmodernism. Conclusions. Institutes of musical performance formed in the past centuries retain their positions in the modern socio-cultural space. However, a characteristic phenomenon is currently the strengthening of trends that appeared in the age of postmodernism. On the basis of the conceptual principles of postmodern musical culture in performance unprecedented interpretive approaches to the musical text are formed aimed to attract both elite and mass listeners, techniques of combination and eclecticism of various views and artistic traditions, dialogism with different civilizations and historical periods are actualised. The concept of the "death of the author" gets its own detection in the context of the specifics of musical performance, being realised in a new, postmodern strategy of interpreting the musical text and significantly expanding the author's capabilities of the performers. The specificity of musical performance in the era of postmodernism consists in unique approaches to interpretative activity, which in particular conveys the key features of its time, reproduces the special mission of a man in the modern world, and reflects cultural life.
