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.
