description | The purpose of the article is to identify the features of postmodern ballets-interpretations of the classical heritage. Methodology. An analysis of the source base, a comparison of classical and postmodern interpretation approaches in the ballet theater, and art history analysis allowed us to conduct a scientific study. The scientific novelty lies in revealing the main aspects of the postmodern interpretation of the classical heritage ballets. Conclusions. The interpretation of the ballet heritage today takes place in the classical tradition (reconstruction and revision) and post-modern aesthetics (deconstruction). The postmodern interpretation rejects the idea of a cultural canon and lays down the principles of openness for any transformations, the interaction of any style systems. The musical score is usually reduced, not the musical drama, but the choreographic one begins to play a primary role, and the forms of organization of musical material (numbers, paintings, acts) are subordinated to the dictatorship of the choreographer. Often there is a radical departure from the originally set score of the plot-action basis; urgent issues are raised. The vocabulary of postmodern interpretations is based on a combination of different-style elements, improvisation, in contrast to the formalized, often canonized vocabulary of traditional reconstruction and editorial offices. The interpretation of classical heritage ballets in the aesthetics of postmodernism at the same time acts as a peculiar form of appeal to tradition and a sarcastic attitude towards it. Interpretation of classical heritage ballets, a significant part of the compositional components of which is well known, causes "buildup of meanings" (Hadamer), a diverse aspect of revealing the potential of the original version of the ballet. This is one of the explanations for the numerous appeals to such ballets by postmodern choreographers. Deepening the "text" of the play is done through quotations, references, etc., which gives it signs of hypertext. |
