Summary/Abstract: The music of the lyrical-dramatic composition conveys a wide spectrum of feelings and impressions connected with the philosophical theme of «Life and Fate». This article examines the problem of the specific realization of the author’s original idea aimed to create a ramified system of themes reflecting creative antitheses – of fate and of humanistic beginning, it pays great attention to the development of the lamenting themes and the process of transformation of the melodic themes into sonorous forms; reveals the important role of imitation-canonic polyphony combined with heterophony, and the original features of the poliostinato techniques. The article examines the gradual domination of a negative creative beginning in the process of development and its reinforcement in the quartet finale.
