Abstract

The article is devoted to the poorly studied and debated topic of the interaction between music and architecture, which is considered in the context of modern methodological issues. Signs of the discussion of the possible connection between the temporal and spatial types of arts were the expressive metaphors of famous authors that “music is the petrified kingdom of sounds” (J. W. von Goethe), and “architecture is the frozen music” (F. Schlegel). Modern musicologists are making attempts to substantiate interspecific communication by studying the terminological apparatus (I. N. Vanovskaya), the intermodal principles in the rhythmic organization of form (L. B. Freivert), the texture in the aspect of the synthesis of arts (T. N. Krasnikova), the general figurative structure of Gothic architecture and music by J. S. Bach (N. A. Eskin). Attracting the methodological capabilities of the comparative approach and extrapolating his methods into the musicological field, the author sets the main goal of identifying typological similarities between musical and architectural works through the prism of spatio-temporal representations. The genre of concerto grosso and the landscape gardening architectural ensemble of the seicento era are chosen as the subject of research. Both phenomena were born in Italy, their best examples representing the Italian Baroque tradition
