This study deals with the musical approach of French composer André Jolivet and the mystical and esoteric elements in his works. The research focuses on the humanist approach and the search for universal spirituality in Jolivet's music and the discussions on the inner journey of the individual in art. The study reflects Jolivet's use of music as a means of expression in his works, as well as his attempt to unify human experience and cosmic reality. In the context of the analysis of these reflections, both the humanist and idealist principles that constitute Jolivet's music and the philosophical and sociological atmosphere of his time (or just the period) are discussed. The study focuses on the reflections of Jolivet's interest in subjects such as the music of primitive societies and magic on his music. The scope of the study is limited to Jolivet's musical language, the mystical and symbolic elements in his works, and his relationship with the philosophical movements of the period. Accordingly, the research focuses on the analysis of Jolivet's musical and philosophical influences rather than a biographical study of his life.
