THESAURUS CONCERTMASTER: SYSTEM APPROACH

Abstract

The objectives of this article are to substantiate the concept of “thesaurus concertmaster” and to identify its components as a complex hierarchical system. The object of research is the professional activity of the concertmaster as an extensive multi-component sphere. The subject is the system of professional thesaurus of the concertmaster. The research methodology is based on systemic and functional methods. It is noted that in modern conditions, the concertmaster profession is very branched, functions in different conditions. This requires a concertmaster to acquire various knowledge, skills and abilities during training that make up his professional “luggage”, as well as constant professional self-improvement and growth. Considering the relevance of the development of the concept of “musical thesaurus” and “professional thesaurus of the performer” in scientific works (M. Kalashnik), to refer to a complex of knowledge required for a concertmaster profession, the concept of “thesaurus concertmaster” is proposed. This concept understood as a system of knowledge, which forms the basis of successful professional activity of the concertmaster. This system is hierarchical: its foundation is the general thesaurus, it grows musical thesaurus, the next level can be considered the thesaurus of the performer (pianist), the thesaurus of the concertmaster is a kind of superstructure. It covers knowledge of: 1) the specifics of concertmaster activity in accordance with the current conditions of functioning and areas of application; 2) professional ways, means, skills and abilities of its successful implementation in different conditions and areas; 3) the repertoire according to the sphere of activity and its conditions. Each of the theoretically distinguished levels of thesaurus is multi-component and hierarchical, the components of the levels are interrelated and interdependent. Like any thesaurus, the thesaurus concertmaster is formed and stored in two forms-oral and written.
