Bu çalışmanın amacı, müzik unsurları içeren çağdaş sahne yapımlarında tür çeşitliliği ve sanatsal-imgesel içeriğin özelliklerini belirlemektir. Araştırma metodolojisi, sanat ve müzikolojik analizlerin yanı sıra yapısal-anlamsal bir yaklaşımı da içermektedir. Ana tematik eğilimleri belirlemek için içerik analizi yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Çağdaş müzik performanslarının tematik içeriğinin incelenmesi, birkaç önemli eğilimi ortaya çıkarmıştır. İlk olarak, önemli sayıda yapım ulusal kimlik, tarihi olaylar ve kültürel mirasın keşfine odaklanmıştı; bu, Ukrayna edebiyat klasikleri ve folkloruna dayanan performanslarda yansıtılmıştı. İkinci olarak, sosyal konulara, özellikle savaş, göç ve değişen sosyokültürel koşullarda kendini arama temalarına belirgin bir ilgi vardı. Yaklaşımlar, geleneksel vokal-enstrümantal formları, multimedya teknolojileri, interaktif seyirci katılımı ve canlı performans ile elektronik müziğin birleşimi gibi yenilikçi sahne çözümleriyle birleştiriyordu. Sahne tasarımı ve koreografi tasarımına özel önem verildi; her ikisi de yapımların genel dramaturjisini güçlü bir şekilde etkiledi. Çalışma sırasında, çağdaş müzik performanslarının Ukrayna tiyatrosu ve müzik sanatının gelişiminde önemli bir rol oynadığı, geleneksel formların yenilenmesine, performans paletinin zenginleşmesine ve tiyatronun daha geniş bir izleyici kitlesi üzerindeki etkisinin genişlemesine katkıda bulunduğu gösterildi. Bu performanslar, sanatçı ve toplum arasında etkili bir iletişim aracı haline geldi ve aynı zamanda güncel kültürel ve sosyal süreçlerin bir yansıması oldu.

MUSICAL PERFORMANCES ON THE MODERN STAGE: GENRES, THEMES, INTERPRETATIONS

Öz

The aim of the study was to identify the features of genre diversity and artistic-imagery content in contemporary stage productions with a musical component. The research methodology included art and musicological analysis, as well as a structural-semantic approach. The content analysis method was used to identify the main thematic trends. The study of the thematic content of contemporary musical performances revealed several key trends. Firstly, a significant number of productions focused on the exploration of national identity, historical events, and cultural heritage – reflected in performances based on Ukrainian literary classics and folklore. Secondly, there was a noticeable interest in social issues, particularly themes of war, emigration, and the search for self in changing sociocultural conditions. The approaches combined traditional vocal-instrumental forms with innovative stage solutions – such as multimedia technologies, interactive audience engagement, and the fusion of live performance with electronic music. Particular attention was paid to scenography and choreographic design – both of which strongly influenced the overall dramaturgy of the productions. In the course of the study, it was demonstrated that contemporary musical performances played an important role in the development of Ukrainian theatre and musical art – contributing to the renewal of traditional forms, enrichment of the performance palette, and expansion of theatre’s influence on a wider audience. These performances became an effective means of communication between the artist and society, as well as a reflection of current cultural and social processes.
