Summary/Abstract: Purpose of the article: identify cultural aspects of interpreting vocal-symphonic cycle based on the example «Cantata for soprano and symphony orchestra on the lyrics by A. Pushkin» by the modern Kyiv composer Valeriy Antonyuk. Methodology. The study applied culturological approach and used structural-systemic, interpretative, complex methods with the generalization of the results. Cantata score interpretation by singer Valentyna Antonyuk and conductor Volodymyr Sheik is presented by us as a method of reconstruction and analysis of interpretation, which contributes to the creation of a holistic system of the musical and poetic text. Scientific Novelty is due to the fact that this musical composition by the composer Valeriy Antonyuk has been analyzed for the first time. Conclusions. The vocal-symphonic cycle, being a great form of chamber vocal music, is a kind of generalization of the performer‘s experience. The notions of chamber and cyclicity determine the ways of the performer‘s interpretation of vocal cycles not only as a comprehension of the composer's ideas but also own creative interpretation of the work. Performer‘s articulation, combining cognitive, creative, reflexive components (through the immersion into the atmosphere of a certain era, world outlook and aesthetic orientations of artists – composer and poet) activates the work during the concert. Study of a cantata from the point of view of the cycle formation patterns is directly associated with the problems of the repertoire of contemporary concert-chamber performances, the formation of which is interconnected with the new messages for the listeners. The use of the possibilities of musical analysis and a wide range of potentials of the culturological approach makes it possible to combine individual features and details of the research process into one canvas of the creative portrait of the composer V. Antonyuk in the context of his time.
