Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is due to the need to study the peculiarities of the interpretation of the artistic texts of the vocal cycle of F. Poulenc on the poem by M. Karem "Straw" in the intermedial space. The methodology is based on an integrated approach using comparative, structural, interdisciplinary methods and narrative analysis to understand the psychological processes that arise when interpreting a vocal cycle, involves the inclusion of the problem of analysis in the space of art history and cultural discourse in an interdisciplinary context. Scientific novelty the scientific novelty lies in the fact that the vocal cycle of F. Poulenc was first investigated as a full-fledged semiotic space, a universal plane of the textual category of intertextuality, which, along with the specific characteristics of its sign system, conveys "figurative" information. Conclusions Analysis of philosophical, musicological, art criticism literature gives grounds to assert that the intermediality of vocal work is closely related to the concepts: "synthesis of arts", "narrative", "ekphrasis", "synesthesia", "suggestion", etc. F. Poulenc to poems by M. Karem “A Short Straw” is a full-fledged semiotic space that corresponds to the universal textual category of intertextuality, which, along with the specific characteristics of its sign system, conveys “figurative” information. The intermediality of vocal work is based on the interaction of artistic codes of various types of arts, as the formation of an integral poly art space in the cultural system. The combination of narrative and intermedial approaches to musical works is increasingly becoming one of the most relevant trends in modern musicology, the further development of the theory and practice of intermediality.
