The paper consists of three parts A, B and C. In part A, “A contribution to the methodology of biomathematics”, general considerations on mathematical analysis and automaton theory are given in order to show how and why new approaches for biomathematics are required from the standpoint of information science. In fact three requirements are mentioned: (1°) general system approach; (2°) historical approach; (3°) three indispensable constituent fields of biological science. Regarding (1°), the author refers to his work on the logic of information science explained in 1968 at the CAS Seminar in Dubrovnik and published in 1969 in a Japanese monograph. Regarding (2°), reference is made to his paper “A contribution to the methodology of futurology” published in International Conference on Futurology, April 1970, Kyoto. The three indispensable constitutent fields are given by (a) theoretical, (b) experimental and (c) engineering biologies. In view of these three requirements, characteristic features of biomathematics in connection with an information science approach are (1°) discrete, (2°) combinatorial, (3°) dynamical, (4°) evolutionary, and (5°) design mathematics.

The purpose of this article is process of analyzing in reference to concert capriccio by C. Munier for mandolin with piano («Bizzarria», op. 201, Spanish сapriccio, op. 276) from the point of view of their genre specificity. Methodology. The research is based on the historical approach, which determines the specifics of the genre of Capriccio in the music of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and in the work of C. Munier; the computational and analytical methods used to identify the peculiarities of the formulation and the performing interpretation of the original concert pianos for mandolins with piano that, according to the genre orientation (according to the composerʼs remarks), are defined as capriccio. Scientific novelty. The creation of Florentine composer,61mandolinist-vertuoso and pedagog C. Munier, which made about 300 compositions, is exponential for represented scientific vector. Concert works by C. Munier for mandolin and piano, created in the capriccio genre, were not yet considered in the art of the outdoors, as the creativity and composer’s style of the famous mandolinist. Conclusions. Thus, appealing to capriccio by С. Munier, which created only two works, embodied in them virtually all the evolutionary stages of the development of genre. In his opus of this genre there are a vocal, inherent in capriccio of the 17th century solo presentation, virtuosity, originality, which were embodied in the works of 17th – 18th centuries and the national color of the 19th century is clearly expressed. Thus, the Spanish capriccio is a kind of «musical encyclopedia» of national dance, which features are characteristic features of bolero, tarantella, habanera, and so forth. The originality of opus number 201 – «Bizzarria», is embodied in the parameters of shaping (expanded cadence of the soloist in the beginning) and emphasized virtuosity, which is realized in a wide register range, a variety of technical elements.
