Musical image as an object of linguistic and psychological analysis

Abstract

This article provides an analysis of musical image of composer’s world, where remarks, undoubtedly, are: representators of expressive and speech style of music, adjustments of performance interpretation, containing essential characteristics of intonational and creative images. The developed method of pragmatic and linguistic diagnosis of composer’s personality is based on the acknowledgement of the fact that author of the text actualizes the pragmatic aspect reflecting its speech activity together with semantic and syntax aspects. An array of musical terminoid remarks introduced into musical practice was not the subject of system analysis up to day. An interpretation of the values of context-style meanings of musical remarks and corresponding psychological, subject, behavioral, image modalities require apprehension. It is important for us that musical remarks become not only performance, but also «composite» moments of image structure of musical work and include scientific (term), performance (prescription), intonational-artistic (image) content. Therefore, the remarks are terminoids, because they perform the function of transition from the values, meanings of the daily or mythological or artistic (inside the other arts) images of the world to the musical-artistic, and then to the scientific, i.e., to the systematic conceptual reflection signs, enclosed in them.
