Abstract: The aim of the study is to identify the genre specificity in A. V. Tchaikovsky’s musical-dramatic illustrations (2023) to M. Yu. Lermontov’s poem “The Tambov Treasurer’s Wife”. The article analyzes the genre origins of this work. The study focuses on such genre phenomena as musical-dramatic illustrations, vaudeville, comedy, and also examines the influence of the opera genre. The modern composer’s work becomes the object of study for the first time, which accounts for its scientific novelty. As a result, the influence of the literary source, M. Yu. Lermontov’s poem, on A. V. Tchaikovsky’s work is determined. However, the emphasis on humorous discourse, manifested primarily through various allusions, especially of a musical nature, leads to genre transformations in the musical-dramatic illustrations: the dramatic essence of the main artistic image of the work gradually emerges through comic characteristics.
