VOCAL PERFORMANCE AS A COMBINATION OF DIFFERENT GENRES

Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of the interaction of vocal and speech techniques in the process of training an actor of musical and dramatic theater in the context of vocal performance as a synthetic form of modern stage art. The relevance of the topic is due to the transformation of the genre nature of musical and dramatic theater, which puts forward new professional requirements for the actor as a universal performer, capable of organically combining singing, stage speech and dramatic action within the framework of a holistic artistic image. The article analyzes modern scientific approaches to the problem of stage voice formation, justifies the feasibility of integrating vocal and speech training and defines vocal performance as a space for active genre and intonation synthesis. The common physiological and psychophysical principles of vocal and speech techniques are considered, in particular, breathing, articulation, resonance and intonation organization, which allows them to be interpreted as a single coordination system subordinated to the artistic tasks of stage action. Particular attention is paid to methodological approaches to the integration of vocal and speech in the educational process, a phased model of the formation of the actor’s vocal and speech competence is proposed and its practical significance for work in a multi-genre repertoire is outlined. It is proven that an integrated approach contributes to increasing the stage organicity, intonation accuracy, semantic expressiveness and genre mobility of the performer. The conclusion is made about the prospects of further research aimed at the experimental implementation of integrated methods in the system of professional training of actors of the musical and dramatic theater and the study of their influence on the artistic results of modern stage practices.
