Abstract.
The article deals with the tools for the formation of national spiritual and cultural resilience by means of art. The material of the study is three large-scale vocal and symphonic works by contemporary Ukrainian composers: the symphony-requiem “Righteous Soul” by Bohdana Froliak, the historical oratorio “The winds are blowing” by Hanna Havrylets and the symphonic and choral frescoes “Kobzar” by Yurii Shevchenko. An interdisciplinary approach is applied with the use of the following methods: historical and cultural studies, textual studies, holistic musicological analysis, comparative, systematic and typological, and generalization methods. Different types of interaction between composers and performers with Taras Shevchenko’s poetry are identified: the creation of an original author’s composition with a free selection of texts of the “Kobzar”; intertextual type, which combines the melodies of famous songs to Shevchenko’s words with the author’s music; application of the principle of musical and poetic montage. It is proved that Ukrainian artists, addressing the poetic heritage of Taras Shevchenko in the twenty-first century and revealing its new meanings, make a significant contribution to strengthening the spirituality of the Ukrainian people and enhancing national resilience.
