Кристина Япова: Музика и логос. „Моисей и Арон” на Шьонберг
Kristina Yapova: Music and Logos. ‘Moses and Aron’ by Schoenberg

Summary/Abstract: In her latest book, Kristina Yapova gives her attention of a researcher to the core of comprehension of music, listening to the musical fundamentals of existence. The author offers a musical ontology, where, with the help of phenomenological methods, consistently compressing the texture of meaning into a kind of stretto form, she faces up to that primality, the primordiality of the relationship between music and logos, pre-existing any definability of philosophical and musicological traditions and schools; an ontology in the exposition of which the assumption, otherwise unthinkable until now in the context of the concrete axiomatics of particular traditions and schools, that music ought to stand up for its legitimate right to the term ‘logos’ is incontestably asserted. Studying the musical relationship between the mutually elucidating in the ontological problematics ultimate terms logos, truth and being, Yapova highlights the positive relationship between music and logos and respectively, the relationship between music and the truth of being. The philosophical ideas in the first chapter of the book are expanded on in the second and the third chapters both by using examples from Schoenberg’s operatic masterpiece and within the frontiers of the theoretical (musical, philosophical and religious) views of the composer that have found a powerful projection and brilliant artistic rendition in ‘Moses and Aron’.
