Abstract

In this article the author seeks through the prism of the analysis of Benjamin Britten's Piano concerto to trace the creative connections between the English composer and Russian (Soviet) music and culture in general. Research starts from the earlier period of the composer's creative life. He investigates the influences on the composer during his work. The compositional details of the work are revealed in order to understand the origins of Britten's style. The performance history of the concerto is shown via creative relationships with Sviatoslav Richter.
