The article is devoted to the musical element in the poetry of Lesia Ukrainka. The author analyses Lesia Ukrainka`s poems with musical motives ("Melodies" (Melodii), "Seven strings" (Sim strun), "Rhythms" (Rytmy)) and numerous texts set to music by different composers (M. Lysenko, K. Stetsenko, Y. Stepovyi, M. Verykivskyi, H. Veriovka, etc.), as well as the drama "Forest Song" (Lisova Pisnia), which became the basis for an opera and ballet (V. Kireiko, M. Skorulskyi). The author focuses on the choreographic embodiment of Mavka (the main character of the drama) by several generations of ballerinas, compares their perception with ones of literary researchers, and discusses the literary and musical art specifics. Theoretical analysis of the highlighted problems is considered in the context of Ukrainian and foreign literary criticism.
