Purpose and objectives of the thesis: The purpose of the study consists in the analysis of the
modalities of compositional approaching of the contemporary Romanian poetry and their
capitalization through own vision of creation in a work of vocal-symphonic genre on the lyrics of
Nichita Stănescu.
The objectives of the research: elucidation of the musical achievements obtained within the
different currents, genres and styles of compositional creation based on the work of contemporary
Romanian poets; highlighting and characterizing the conceptual moments, themes, imagistic
spheres, language elements and other ways of rendering the poetic message in Romanian academic
music; punctuating the essential features of stylistics, Stănescian poetic language, themes and
determining poetic landmarks as a source of inspiration for composers; the analysis of his own
vocal-symphonic work written within the professional doctoral project, the theoretical synthesis
of the compositional experience of approaching the work of the Romanian poet of the 20th century
Nichita Stănescu.
The scientific novelty and originality of this research. The thesis represents a first approach in
the Moldovan composition of Nichita Stănescu's poetry, realized within the creative project that
completes the national repertoire of the Romanian musical-poetic space; for the first time in a
doctoral thesis were researched the musical compositional techniques with reference to the vocalsymphonic cycle Eu sunt Tu, combined with the theoretical course about the creative process, and
reflected in the musicological analysis of the score; a comprehensive historical-theoretical
approach was used in the thesis, making it possible to study one's own vocal-symphonic work in
the broad context of the interpretation of Romanian poetry in modern academic music.
Practical significance of the work consists in widening the sphere of contemporary
compositional visions on Nichita Stănescu's poetic legacy by creating the cycle Eu sunt Tu for
mezzo-soprano, baritone, declamator and symphony orchestra, which will complete the national
vocal-symphonic repertoire and is a unique contribution to Stanescu's poetry in Moldovan
academic music. The thesis can be recommended as a teaching material in the disciplinary studies
Musical Composition, Modern Compositional Techniques, History of National Music and can
serve as a support for further research in the field.
Implementation of scientific results. The thesis was realized within The Arts Studies and
Culturology Doctoral School from the Academy of Music, Theatre and Fine Arts of the Republic
of Moldova being discussed and recommended for defence by the Guidance Commission and by
the Scientific Council of the Academy. Research materials have been submitted for national and
