W drodze do harmonii - wspólnota europejska w kontekście sztuki muzycznej

Abstract

The main idea of the article is to show particular kind of similarity between musical composition and the community, bound together by common values and tradition. Tradition that unites does not limit creative and innovative approach to the past, present and fiiture. On the contrary, values give meaning to the searching process. Musical composition - as consisting of series of complementary elements - in perfect way refiects the idea of »unity in diversity«, so crucial for building the community. History reveals how universal language musie is and how important is the musical wealth of particular nations - as it constitutes specific inspiration for composers, originating from various areas of the world. Musie serves also as a perfect communication tool and opens our minds for the beauty, variety and dynamies of constantly evolving and changing reality.
