Abstract

The article is devoted to the scientific work of an outstanding Russian musicologist V. V. Medushevsky. The author reflects on the history of Medushevsky's search for an externalistic extension of musicology through complex interdisciplinary research, started in the 1960s. The author identifies the main stages on the way to creating a holistic methodology of comprehension of music and identifies the factors which influenced the maturation of his concepts of profound intonation, the intonation nature of musical form, synergistic and dialogic nature of music, the methodology of spiritual analysis of musical works and performance.
V. V. Mendushevsky's ideas are considered both in terms of their novelty and their involvement in the tradition of Russian musicology, strengthening its unity with the Russian religious philosophical thought. The author pays particular attention to the specificity of the scientist's thinking, for whom the central point is the "theory of everything" — the general fundamental pedagogy of mankind.
