Стилистични траектории във вариациите върху докомпозиционен тематизъм (Любомир Пипков, Пътуване из Албания – шестнадесет картини върху една албанска песен за струнен оркестър)
Stylistic trajectories in variations on pre-compositional thematicism (Lubomir Pipkov, A Journey through Albania: sixteen paintings on an Albanian song for string orchestra)

Summary/Abstract: Part of the earliest history of instrumental shaping, variations on pre-compositional thematicism form a significant cultural stratum, naturally formed by the dynamics of creative choices in terms of intonation, approach to form, dramaturgy, compositional technology. Their mentality of creation is outlined by the trajectory of a particular work of art, filling the space of the theme – a model and a compositional assignment bearing the character of its era, genre, and type of thinking – to the individual composer’s realization in the variations, entering different types of relationships to the basis. The “musical paintings” by L. Pipkov are considered at the same time as an example of the functioning of this cultural-transfer mechanism and as an artistic cast of the poetics of the Balkan’s geographic topos inspired by travel.
