- Abstract
The paper presents the statistical analysis of Ciurlionis' symphonic music rhythmic. Rhythmic formulas, their frequencies and change during the early and mature creation periods are dealt with. The results are compared with previous Ciurlionis' rhythmic studies results obtained from the analysis of Ciurlionis' piano music (Ambrazevicius, Kucinskas, 2010). The study identified rhythmic formulas characteristic of all Ciurlionis' symphonic oeuvre, and distinguished typical rhythmic symphonic music formulas of the early and mature creation periods. The research also confirmed the previous insights of Lithuanian musicologists about larger and wider variety of the late creative period of Ciurlionis in comparison with the early period. A parallel inside analysis of symphonic music rhythmic allowed highlighting the rhythmic discrepancies between the score of Kqstutis reconstructed by Jurgis Juozapaitis and the rhythmic formulas used by Ciurlionis himself in his symphonic oeuvre.
