Abstract

The purpose of the research is to study the heuristic trends of music computer technologies in the works of contemporary composers. The research methodology is to use musicological, system-structural, logically-constructive and heuristic methods. This methodological approach allows analyzing the creativity of modern composers, in the projection of the heuristic music computer technologies use. The scientific novelty of the research is the presentation of the specificity of the author's modern technique of the Ukrainian composer Alla Zagaykevych, whose specificity has been determined by musical computer technologies. Conclusions. The use of heuristic music computer technologies in the works of contemporary composers and Ukrainian artist Alla Zagaykevich has shown that the existing software capabilities allow carrying out sound "experiments" aimed at the search for new means of musical expression, organic integration of electronic sounds with traditional acoustic instruments. This kind of integration of traditional directions with innovative ones opens up unlimited perspectives in the composers’ creative work.
