Abstract

The article examines choral writing as a fundamental factor in the practical activity of a conductor. It is substantiated that choral writing in conducting is a performative category aimed at realizing the composer’s artistic intent. It is established that the conductor implements the choral score through its analysis, interpretation of the verbal elements of choral writing, and embodiment of the ideological and artistic essence of the piece. It is revealed that the analysis of choral writing is important for the conductor’s understanding of the work and is aimed at selecting means and methods of expressive performance to uncover the composer’s vision. The analysis of the literary and musical text, as well as the structural elements of the choral work, is intended to reveal the artistic image. While analyzing the score, the conductor should form an imaginative sound picture of the piece with its structural and dramaturgical features. Correct interpretation of the verbal text promotes understanding of the composer’s idea and the dramaturgical solution of the work. The interpretation of the verbal text of a choral work may vary depending on the artistic goals set by the conductor. All dynamic nuances, articulations, and tempo changes are interpreted by the conductor depending on the artistic content and performance interpretation. The embodiment of the artistic content of the piece is realized through the conductor’s manual technique. It is shown that choral writing is a symbolic category realized through performance. It is substantiated that in the work of a choral conductor, choral writing serves as a means of implementing the artistic and figurative content of the work, which is revealed through performance interpretation. It is confirmed that the conductor’s realization of choral writing is a performance category aimed at expressing the artistic content of the piece. Choral writing helps the conductor form the semantic dimension of the work in its actual sound
