Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the work. The article reveals neoclassical features in the guitar creativity of the 20th-century Polish composer Alexander Tansman on the example of Passacaglia, suites for solo guitar "Cavatina," suites for guitar and string orchestra "Court music." The methodology is based on the use of historical, comparative, phenomenological, structural-functional methods that allow embracing the designated discourse in the context of the creative searches of a musician. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the phenomenological approach to the analysis of the guitar compositions of the Polish composer, not studied in Ukrainian musicology. Conclusions. Neoclassical tendencies in Tansman's guitar art were revealed. The primary genre and compositional models of ancient music, as well as its style elements, adapted to modern musical vocabulary, are determined. The semantic connections of intonations with the symbolism of baroque rhetorical figures are revealed.
