Patlayenko E. After Reading the Gospel of John. Piano score and part

Musical development in this composition realized in two ways.

The first, literary and philosophical aspect, introduces the listener into a concrete world, inside of which the Gospel events occurs. Therefore, before the beginning of the suite the entertainer reads from the scene together with the titles of its parts epigraphs — the verses from the Gospel of John.

These epigraphs should be printed as an annex to the program of the concert. In a second aspect, musical and mystical, the listener is invited to live the Gospel events with the author and performer. As a result, all the elements are combining together into a unified whole.
