Works for the flute of Jacques Ibert in the context of life and creativity

Abstract

This article presents the work of the french composer  of  the  XX  century  Jacques  Ibert  for  the  flute. Closely  belonging  to  the  circle  of  composers  of  the  Six group, his works trace the features of urbanism. But at the same time, a feature of his work is the synthesis of different artistic  directions  of  the  first  half  of  the  twentieth century,  such  as  impressionism  and  neoclassicism.  The identification of this style feature of the composer’s work is the goal of the study. An example of such a combination of different directions is the Concert and Play for the flute. The study showed that the identified features of various directions  presented  in  Iber’s  work  constitute  a  single whole, an organic alloy, which is distinguished by a bright individual character, a unique style characteristic of the work of the french master.
