Summary/Abstract: This article is devoted to the problem of the realization of musical-cultural continuity through the art form and its intonational dramaturgy. The main object on which the creative mechanisms of the absorption of traditions through a new creative elaboration are studied is the symphonic work by Pencho Stoyanov In memoriam – 120 years Pancho Vladigerov (2019). The thematic dramaturgy of the work is constructed from motives and themes that are significant for Vladigerov’s artistic activity, such as Bulgarian Suite Op. 21 (Song), Jewish Poem Op. 47, Improvisation Op. 36, Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No. 3 Op. 31, Symphony No. 1 Op. 33, Toccata Op. 36, Autumn Elegy Op. 15 and Bulgarian Rhapsody “Vardar” Op. 16. Despite the quotation-collage-like approach, the form is intonationally unified on the basis of the selection of the material and the creation within it of an author’s sustaining layer, which forms of presence in the composition range from horizontal and vertical syntheses with the quoted material to self-quotation (Sonata for Violin and Piano No. 3). The work, poem-like in its dramaturgy and structure, represents a form of actualization of the tradition through the prism of the author’s own style, whose achievements it generalizes in many respects, asserting its own aesthetic independence.
