Բանաստեղծություններ

Poetry

Կոմիտաս, Komitas

Հանճարեղ երգաստեղծ Կոմիտասը հեղինակ է նաև մի քանի տասնյակ բանաստեղծությունների։ Դրանք նրա կենդանության օրոք չեն տպագրվել. պարզապես հեղինակն իրեն չի համարել բանաստեղծ և գրել է ինքն իր համար։ Երբեմն միայն՝ ամենամտերիմներից մեկի ալբոմում թողել է որևէ չափածո հիշատակ։ Կոմիտասի պոեզիան ավելի քան հասկանալի է դարձնում նրա մեղեդիների բյուրեղյա ոճը, երգերի խոսքերի մեծարվեստ մշակվածությունը, մտքի, հույզի անսահման խորությունն ու ձևերի ավարտուն հղկվածությունը։ Այս բանաստեղծություններն այսօր մեզ համար թանկ են ո՛չ միայն իբրև կոմիտասյան մասունքներ, դրանք մեր առջև պարզում են հեղինակի գրական֊գեղագիտական ըմբռնումները, անձնական մտորումները, ուստի հետաքրքրական և արժեքավոր են նաև Կոմիտաս-արվեստագետի և Կոմիտաս-մարդու նկարագրի ամբողջականացման տեսակետից։ Լ. Միրիջանյան

Stockhausen; Life and Work

Basing his work on conversations with the composer, Karl Wörner puts into plain language the ideas behind Stockhausen's new musical forms, examines the development of electronic music and explains the spatial location in new music; the broader aspects of the composer's place in musical history and in the society in which he works are also considered. Particularly valuable is the section on Stockhausen's life, his friends and pupils; and the book includes the composer's own notes on his works. -- from back cover.

Proust as Musician

Jean-Jacques Nattiez

Does one need to know the rules of harmony to be considered a musician? Throughout A la recherche du temps perdu, and particularly ' Swann in Love', Proust displays a surprising sensitivity to the way music is heard, a sensitivity to which we owe some of the most beautiful writing on music. Through a study of the texts devoted to the Sonata and Septet of Vinteui, Jean-Jacques Nattiez demonstrates the fundamental role played by music in the evolution of the novel. He also shows how Debussy, Wagner and Beethoven provide the basis for a mystical quest whose goal is pure music and the literary absolute. Music as model for literature: this is the subject of Professor Nattiez's essay, which unravels the various musical themes running through Proust's work, and which thus constitutes a particularly clear and perceptive introduction to his writing.
