Musicology Annotation << Back The Swedish music during the formation of national composer’s school Anna P. Nedospasova Relevance of the publication is caused by poor data about history of the Swedish music in Russian musicology. The studying of the Swedish sources undertaken by the author showed that in the XVII century music art endured intensive development that allowed creating the soil for formation of national composer’s school. This process went in interaction of various components: folk professional performers, church and military musicians, amateurs. Infl uence of the modern styles currents from Central Europe was promoted by activity of a court chapel under the leadership of several generations of a dynasty von Dueben. In each of components (instrumental, vocal music and various types of their interaction) were improved. Some lines of infl uence from the Western European centers (Italy and France) at the beginning of the XVIII century we can see in music manuscripts of a court chapel, military musicians, church organists and amateurs. Analysis of works by fi rst Swedish composer of the European scale J. H. Roman demonstrates the taken place synthesis of the Western European genres on the national soil. The main importances were Roman's efforts using Swedish language. His fruitful activity opened the following stage when music followed a way of sustainable development of new professional level.
