Abstract:
The article examines the theoretical and methodological foundation for studying the phenomenon of performance culture. The concept of culture is considered as a fundamental basis for the spiritual development of personality through the prism of philosophical, sociological, cultural, art studies, and pedagogical aspects of the concept of culture. In the context of art pedagogy, particular attention is paid to the axiological, praxeological, and personality-oriented creative approaches to understanding the phenomenon of performance culture.
The terminological lexemes «culture of performance» (professional tools, mechanism of professional activity) and «performance culture» (the core of the specialist’s personal and semantic sphere) are accurately clarified and differentiated. The manifestation of performance culture are systematized, in particular the performer’s ability for artistic interpretation of a work, the development of empathy, and the ability to decode the meaning of musical notation. The study summarizes the understanding of the dynamic nature of performance culture, which transforms and modifies under the influence of changing aesthetic ideals and dominant performance standards.
Thus, the theoretical analysis conducted allowed us to clearly distinguish between the concepts of «performance culture» and «performance culture». We determined that performance culture is a professional foundation that includes instrument skills and technical mastery. In turn, performance culture is the highest level of development of a performer. It encompasses the spiritual world of the performer, the ability to deeply understand the artistic content, show aesthetic empathy and create one’s own interpretation of a musical work. The study also substantiates that performance culture is a dynamic, not a static system, which is constantly updated under the influence of new artistic standards and the prevailing aesthetic ideals of society.
Keywords: parameters of the manifestation of performance culture, performing competence, aesthetic consciousness, stage performance standards, performing mastery.
