Abstract

The paper deals with the realization of memorial music phenomenon in the music by Siberian composers. "Music of memory" concept is an important thematic area in the creative activities of contemporary Russian composers. The phenomenon is connected with the idea to memorialize. Compositions might have various "addressees": history, phenomena, and personalities. A peculiar feature of "in memoriam" music in regional conditions is not only a tribute to the memory of Russian and world-class significant figures, but also preserving "memory of regional culture". Since 1950-ies there has been a sustained interest of Siberian composers in that sphere. These are the composers from Abakan (A. Kenel, G. Chelborakov), Barnaul (E. Kravtsov), Irkutsk (V. Tikhonov, V. Karpenko), Krasnoyarsk (V. Beshevli, O. Meremkulov, O. Prostitov, I. Fleisher), Novosibirsk (Yu. Yukechev, G. Ivanov, Z. Blyakher, S. Kravtsov), Omsk (I. Kheifets), Ulan-Ude (J. Batuev, P. Damiranov, Yu. Irdyneev, V. Usovitch). Dedications to people who have left a significant cultural mark at the regional level are the most important to the memory culture development in Siberia. The main memorial features found in Siberian music reflect the all-Russian tendencies: range of genres, musical expressive means.
