Music and sound patterns in the organization of the cultural landscape of Demidov Square in Barnaul

Music and sound approach to the reading of the architectural ensemble of Demidov Square of Barnaul is the basis of the methodology of the proposed research. The ultimate goal of the association is to enrich the cultural landscape of the field, specifically the existing places of the city, forming its sense of uniqueness, value, detecting patterns and similarities in the formation of these landscapes. Analysis of the composition and facades of the buildings that make up the ensemble of the square can draw analogies with ancient music forms of sonatas (Allegro, Andante, Menuet, Final) and the ancient dance suite (Alemanda, Courante, Sarabanda, Gigue). This comparison authorizes the granting of all parts of the cycle specific sound settings: high, up tempo, tonal range, the characteristics of the texture and melody, agitation, mood, etc. The revealed dramatic development cycle enables to visually experience the dynamic properties of an architectural monument, its integrity as a major cultural phenomenon, the interconnectedness of its components, on the other hand, it deprives the architectural ensemble of the uniqueness of reading and interpretation. New means of expression form an additional layer of associative component of the cultural landscape, introducing it to the world of music, its history and circumstances, means of expression. Music and sound characteristics that appear in the analysis of the composition of the square and some architectural elements of the facades of buildings included in this architectural ensemble can experience the benefits of an integrated approach to the phenomena of synthesis of the arts, to realize their versatility and consistency with the general laws of the organization of the World. Some elements of the ensemble (Demidov Pillar, Church of Dimitry of Rostov) in musical interpretation demonstrate commonality with other attributes of the landscape of the city, making it a significant square and an integral part of it, at the same time denoting relevance, importance and the need for further research. But, of course, already in this state, Demidov Square of Barnaul is a new educational and cultural environment in the long term, a new point of unique hiking routes, a source of scientific research, publications, and museum exhibits.
