PETERSBURG MUSICAL “MASTER AND MARGARITA”: INTONATIONAL INTERPRETATION OF BULGAKOV’S NOVEL

The article is devoted to the analysis of musical-dramaturgic structure of the musical “Master and Margarita”, created in St. Petersburg in 2014 by the production company “MakersLab” and the theater Music hall. The music for the show was created by Commonwealth composers, including A. Tanonov, S. Rubalskij, I. Lyubimskaya, O. Thomaz, O. Popkov and A. Maev. The format of the light genre did not prevent the creation of a strictly calibrated musical-dramaturgic system, which is based on the leitmotives and thematic arches, at the intonation level interpreting the complex content of the novel by M. Bulgakov. Petersburg musical “Master and Margarita” can be attributed to the genre variety of musical-opera, characteristic of the European branch of the musical, formed in the last third of the twentieth century and genetically related to the work of E. Lloyd Webber. The reliance on the traditions and achievements of european opera art and the original refraction and development of these traditions is a fundamental feature of the musical analyzed in the article.
