This article introduces into scholarly use the concept of the St.
Petersburg classic school, uniting the creative legacy of three
luminaries of classical music from the 20th century - Igor
Stravinsky, Sergei Prokofiev and Dmitri Shostakovich. The russkost’
as the fundamental basis of the St. Petersburg classic school
appears in form of an archetypal perception of reality as a
multipolar, multilayered, multicultural continuum with features
that are constantly changing. For Stravinsky, it was in the
dialogic basis of the artistic method; for Prokofiev, it took the
form of an inimitable, esthetically self-contained world of
imagery; and for Shostakovich, it was expressed as the conflicting
parallelism of two worlds, the exteal and the inteal. The
esthetic nature of the russkost’ of Stravinsky, Prokofiev and
Shostakovich is rooted in the phenomenon of acquired beauty,
psychologically enriched tone painting, and intellectualized
lyricism. It can be synthesized as a quality that might be defined
as multilayered associativity of genre and style, which tus each
piece by Stravinsky, Prokofiev and Shostakovich into a profoundly
substantive message to the listener.
Авторы статьи вводят в научный обиход понятие Санкт-Петербургской
классической школы, объединяющей творческое наследие трех корифеев
музыкальной классики ХХ века – Игоря Стравинского, Сергея
Прокофьева и Дмитрия Шостаковича. Русскость как фундаментальная
основа Санкт-Петербургской классической школы характеризуется в
свойственных ей явлениях обретенной красоты, психологизированной
звукописи, интеллектуализированнной лирики. Особое внимание уделено
многослойной жанрово-стилистической ассоциативности, которая
превращает каждое произведение Стравинского, Прокофьева и
Шостаковича в глубоко содержательное послание слушателю.
