| Description |
Turbulent changes affecting human civilization as a whole during the 20th century, at all levels of its life and development, and related value shifts; they find their reasonable reflection in the breadth of the spectrum of artistic expressions, beyond the individual artistic sectors as brought by sub-periods and culture, of this complicated, diverse epoch. Here the artistic expression records how different the conception of the deepest existential themes related to life in a changing human community; transforming the view of man - his nature and his place in the world; continuous inquiry about the inner meaning of art (characterized by its increasingly relativizing - and relativized - nature); and the obvious consequences of all the experiences and fears of the human being, clamped in the tongs of the modern and postmodern times, to the search for forms of art communication that would best reflect the new categories, concepts and values of that time. The musical medium, with its means of communication, on the one hand very immediate, but on the other hand, coding its messages in the language of abstraction, fleeting uniqueness, associativity, and the exact incomprehensibility of its meanings. a journey inside the creator - and also the recipient of the music content. In terms of aesthetics, the ways in which music is accepted, interpreted, interpreted and evaluated by listeners at all stages are directly related to the moment of cultural experience, internal setting and thus the ability of the recipients in its abstract vocabulary to “read”. - The shared space of cultural experience - or cultural memory - and collective consciousness in relation to finding new ways of formulating musical content conveying spiritual overlaps and values in the turbulent times of the 20th and 21st centuries is at the heart of the conference paper. Selected compositions by Czech and foreign authors show the ways in which the music of the 20th and 21st centuries seeks to find their own authenticity in the expression of spiritual content, with respect to traditionally and in terms of audience communication, binding entities. At the same time, outlines and possible horizons for contemporary research are outlined in which, using broadly interdisciplinary methods, one can touch upon basic human categories, such as language, cultural experience, cultural code or time perception anatomy, in the study of musical speech. |
