Composition School as a Subject of Scholarly Study

Abstract

The article studies the phenomenon of a composition school that in the history of culture was perceived as an importantcultural phenomenon requiring a thorough study. For many centuries, the history of culture and art was associated with the artists’desire to define and affirm their creative achievements in society. Creative activities have always played a significant role in society.A composer never limits himself to pure creativity but persistently implements his spiritual ideals in life attracting adherents andfollowers. At the same time, the very position of the artist in his environment depended on the historical and political circumstancesthat dictated the attitude of certain circles of society to art in general and towards the work of an individual artist (poets, sculptors,composers etc.) in particular The aim of the article is to reveal the concept of a composition school as a normative-value system aimed at the formation and preservation of professional experience and to study its connection to a scientific school.
