This lecture of Doctor of Arts, Professor Alexander Demchenko illuminates in a maximally compact form the evolution of the music of the great composer, the main stages of which are corresponded to by the respective sections of the present text: “Early Works,” “Middle Period” and “Late Works,” which is supplemented by generalizations contained in the sections “The Issue of Humanism” and “The Artistic Constants.” The expounding of the lecture will be accompanied by listening to a number of fragments designed to give an overall impression of the range of the composer’s artistic quests.
