The theme of this study marks the problem of national Ego reflected in the musical discourse, the implementation of archetypal images and motifs in cultural artefacts. Why the category of “universalism” taken out as a key to understanding the philosophy of I. Franko’s works? What universalism by “giant spirit” as well as contemporary the art continuum is able to penetrate deep into the essence Franko’s words, to reflect the main ideas of the poet-philosopher? After all, what ideas are emphasized and which remain a mystery for future generations? The need to find the answers to these questions is determine the relevance of the topic. One of the specific features of I. Franko’s philosophy is universalism, which is manifested in the diversity of its scientific, artistic and critical work. Franko is the developer of the idea of macroand microcosm unity, spiritual and material, scholar and lexicographer, author of about three thousand works in various fields of knowledge, one of the main founders of the Ukrainian language and scientific theory and practice of intercultural communication. He was the “Renaissance” titanium, archetypal “Doctor universalis”. The Moses-prophet image has a musical history in Western culture. It's oratorio “Israel in Egypt” by G. F. Handel, opera “Moses in Egypt” by J. Rossini, musical drama “Moses and Aaron” by A. Schonberg and others. Symphonic poem and monologue for tenor and orchestra by S. Lyudkevych, “Prologue” to the poem for orchestra and chorus by M. Antonovych and opera “Moses” by M. Skoryk are in Ukrainian music. In the symphonic poem by S. Lyudkevych the Moses image-archetype is manifested two national mental traits, cardiocentrical and strong-willed, through the opposition of subjective and objective, Moses’s philosophical monologues and forceful, heroic overcoming of how people move. Philosophical opera “Moses” by M. Skoryk is a landmark work of composer. The most famous is the Prologue in which we see a continuing to Shevchenko’s testament to will. The composer reinterprets the Moses image. Prophet archetype differentiated into two different of their mental values images-archetypes. Moses is Prophet. He is the prophet of the Jewish people, who doubts master, who betrays his own people, but he leads his people to the Promised Land, that is, to “complete” nation. In the opera, defined as “opera-parable” (L. Kyyanovska), the Prophet Moses image-archetype depicted by using the motifs system and vivid monologues. Poet is a prophet too. He expresses the national idea and as a visionary predicts the process of national creation. Significantly, the Poet is voiced by famous prologue “My people...” that accompanies the choir, which is still reminiscent of the crowd. In the epilogue Poet repeats keywords “…But the time will come...” with personalized representatives of the formed nation. Thus, in the opera composer gives special mission to Poet. The prologue, which delivers a Poet, is begins from the “shackled shackles” leitmotif, in the epilogue this thematic education (second ascending sequence with chromatic passages) is remain only some shape. Shackles broken and the Poet proves it.
