Music and Drama. Together or Separately?The traditional methods of research into relationship between the music and the literature (also the drama) concern place of the music in literary work (in form of the sounds and the shape of the composition including the musical genres) as well as the music as subject.This kind of studies conducted by philologists doesn’t include new musical forms, being far away from the classic music. Instrumental theatre, dodecaphony, music to reading, mathematical music, graphic score, etc. focus attention on structure, not on sounds. The most important for them is the abstract arrangement of elements, not sounds. Such point of view permits to look for relationships between the literature and the music on deep level of architecture of work. It also permits to go away from search for presence of one art in the second one and provokes to find common elements (form, language, space, time) as well as to define new kind of “interartistic” works.The very interesting subject is Bogusław Schaeffer’s instrumental theatre. His artistic activity is an original and intriguing phenomenon. Composer of new music, interested in dodecaphony, pointillism, graphic music, situates his works at the border of different arts.
