FEATURES OF MINIMALIST MUSIC FUNCTIONING IN FILMS

Julia V. Mikheeva

Abstract


The article examines the role of musical minimalism in aesthetic perception and theoretical interpretation of cinematographic works. The film music of Philip Glass, Michael Nyman, Alfred Schnittke, Arvo Pärt, Alexei Aigui is analysed. Author specifies the analysis of the principles of musical minimalism in films in two basic phenomenons. The first one is a transcending of art space through the self-worth of a single sound (sound pattern). The second one is a change the meaning of film-time through the repetitive music technique.
