THE CONCEPT OF MAN IN THE SYMPHONIC CYCLE: FROM CONCEPT ? TO THE ANALYSIS (ON THE EXAMPLE OF "THE HARMONY OF THE WORLD" OF P. HINDEMITH)

The symphony as a musical and philosophical form of reflection of the universe exists more than two hundred years. During this time, the developed concept of the Person evolved. Many ideas of the Person and the World surrounding him changed, therefore, substantial, structural, language characteristics of the most difficult of instrumental genres were updated. In the Contemporary history the sociocultural history of the symphony was drawn by such events, important for mankind, as two World Wars and an exit of the person in an outer space. Obviously that during an era of global shift in outlook of people the symphony was “voice of time”, search of harmony of the Person and the World.
