- Title
"La Passion según San Marcos" by Osvaldo Golijov. From Bach's Tradition to Modern Interpretation.
- Authors
PLATONOVA, OLESIA
- Abstract
The article focuses on La Pasión según San Marcos by Argentinian composer Osvaldo Golijov. The main research problem is the interpretation of different genres and styles: from Spanish flamenco and Jewish Klezmer to Gregorian chorale and modern minimalism. The Latin American component plays the main role in Passion. It is expressed in the reliance on typical genres (as salsa, rhumba), the unity of singing, instrumental music and dance. The special role of rhythm and improvisation is also marked. Golijov's composition emphasizes the socio-political, rather than religious sound of the plot, as well as the idea of dialogue, modulation of cultures, which is the basis of the whole composer's work.
