| Abstract: The article is devoted to a fundamental problem: the construction of a theory of performance interpretation. The basis of our approach is in the idea of «concept», which was put forward by S. V. Rachmaninov. Not only a brilliant musician, but also a thinker-artist, Rachmaninoff emphasized in his articles (1909–1910) the fundamental importance of the concept, which stands at the forefront of interpretation. In our study, the concept of «concept» is studied as a result of the interaction of three factors: the evolution of ideas in the communicative system of the keyboard-piano culture; the process of the pianist’s comprehension of a performed composition; and the methodology of modern humanitarian science (M. Bakhtin’s theory of dialogue and M. Turner’s and J. Fokonie’s theory of conceptual integration, which is recognized today as a generalized model of cognitive theory).
Studying the composer’s legacy has allowed us to propose a method of integrating the concept, which is considered using his Prelude in G sharp minor as an example.
Keywords: term, concept, Rachmaninoff, communicative system, piano culture, hidden program, semantics of text signs, method, integration of concept
