Синтез академічних і популярних традицій у музиці ХХІ століття: естетика, технології, рецепція

The purpose of the article is a comprehensive study of the processes of synthesis of academic and popular musical traditions in the cultural space of the 21st century, as well as identifying their impact on the aesthetic, technological and receptive aspects of modern musical art. Special attention is paid to the study of the transformation of artistic practices under the influence of digital technologies, changes in the paradigms of music perception by listeners and the interaction of different stylistic layers in the work of composers and performers. Research methodology. The methodological basis of the study was the principles of musicological analysis, a systemic approach, as well as cultural-historical and contextual analysis of musical phenomena. Elements of genre-stylistic analysis, comparative studies, as well as methods of interpreting musical text in the context of socio-cultural transformations were applied. Scientific novelty. For the first time in the Ukrainian scientific context, the synthesis of academic and popular is considered as a new form of musical creativity in the conditions of a globalised media environment. A classification of models of aesthetic interaction between academic and popular traditions is proposed and key factors of receptive adaptation of musical works to new communication formats are identified. Conclusions. The synthesis of academic and popular in 21st century music is not only a manifestation of postmodern eclecticism, but also an important factor in the evolution of musical language. Such interaction contributes to the expansion of the audience of academic art, the formation of new genre and stylistic forms, and also intensifies the role of the listener as an active interpreter. Digital technologies, in turn, act as a catalyst for these processes, changing the methods of production, transmission and perception of musical content.
