NAJIB JIHANOV: AXIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS EXPERIENCE
Musical language as a structural and semiotic object in general scheme can be represented by the interaction of three levels: pragmatics, semantics and syntactics. Pragmatics defines relations between signs and their users, in this case between signs and author. Semantics reveals relations between signs and meanings. And syntactics investigates relations between signs, i.e. big and small divisions, musical expressive means and ways. Style comes out in a higher unity of all levels of metasystem. The sense of representation of an artistic text as a hierarchy system is that levels are chained to one another in unity and one level presupposes the other, when a new model of the world, i.e. new semantics finds an adequate reflection in different paradigmatic ties, i.e. new syntactics. Only the principally new relations based on an innovative model of the world are able to create objective or potential values. In all other cases, i.e. in new plot changes but traditional semantic-syntactic system or trivial picture of the world in attempt to renew certain elements of other levels the relative or actual values emerge. This axiological method has been approved at the article on the creative heritage of famous Tatar composer Najib Gayazovich Jihanov (1911-1988). He was a founder of Tatar classical opera and symphony. During 40 years he was a head of Tatar Composers Guild and Kazan State Conservatoire. N.Jihanov's legacy, which includes 16 symphonies, 8 operas, 2 ballets and many other works for piano and voice, represents a very wide material for axiological analysis by means of the proposed method.
