It is noted that the pop vocal ensemble has specific features that characterize it as a kind of modern musical performance. He represents a new style in popular music, new forms of collective vocal performance (female, male, mixed; vocal-instrumental ensembles, rock bands, and pop groups, etc.).

The aim of the article is to clarify the artistic role of the ensemble “Chervona Ruta” in the context of Ukrainian musical culture. The relevance of the study lies in the development of principles of a new vision, trends in the development of the ensemble “Chervona Ruta” in the context of Ukrainian pop and ensemble performance and its role in the development of musical culture of Ukraine. The methodology of this study is the application of comparative-historical method, which allows us to trace the historical context of the ensemble and the context of the development of pop and ensemble art of Ukraine. The chronological method allows to determine the stages of formation and development of the team on the example of the analysis of concert and performance activities of the ensemble. Vocal and pop performance on the examplebof the ensemble “Chervona Ruta” appears as a dynamic cultural and artistic phenomenon. The song repertoire of the ensemble appears as a translator of the identity of Ukrainian culture, which is confirmed by the presence of folk intonations and the involvement of appropriatebinstruments. The study of the processes of formation and development of ensembles allows us to identify the traditions of Ukrainian pop music, which is a prerequisite for the formation and development of musical art in Ukraine. Despite the existing achievements in the study of ensemble performance, the issues of the influence of ensemble work on Ukrainian artistic music culture remain insufficiently studied, which highlights the need for a comprehensive analysis of the specifics of pop vocal and ensemble performance, especially the band “Chervona Ruta” as a creative phenomenon of pop ensemble. The creative path of the ensemble “Chervona Ruta” began a new stage in the formation of pop song repertoire, which differs from the previous significant changes in genre richness, functional features and new means of performance. The popularization of Ukrainian pop song contributed to the development of television, the improvement of sound recording and reproducing equipment, the emergence of electromusical instruments. All this contributed to the emergence of numerous amateur vocal and instrumental ensembles – a hallmark of a new era in the development of popular music. The advent of VIA brought new ways of artistic expression to the stage – new timbre paints, the use of electromusical instruments with their specifics, the use of various electronic systems, the strange sound of voices in extreme tension. Conclusions. Ensemble art in various genre and stylistic forms has always played a significant role in social life and has enjoyed the widest popularity among composers, performers and listeners in all historical epochs and in general remains popular today. The rise and prosperity of VIA coincided with a period of intensive scientific and technical discoveries – radio engineering, electronics, sound recording. Participants of vocal-instrumental ensembles can be called musicians-performers of a new type, they are at the same time singers, musicians, actors and authors. The new domestic VIA combined the features of big beat and enriched them with national elements, in their programs there is a tendency to synthesize with theater, choreography. A new youth spectator stood out from the former regular audience of the stage, the regulatory functions of the mass media increased.

Развитие искусства, по словам Пастернака, подчиняется закону притяжения. Один из многочисленных примеров этому - бетховенская идея цикла сквозного развития, мимо которой не прошел ни один из последующих композиторов: от Шопена (Соната b-moLL) до Брукнера и Малера. Значительное место в этом процессе принадлежит Брамсу. В публикуемых «Заметках...» на примере шести различных по составу и времени написания камерно-инструментальных ансамблей композитора - фортепианных трио op. 8 (вторая редакция) и op. 40, струнных квартетов op. 51 и op. 67, Кларнетового квинтета op. 115 - обнаруживается разнообразие воплощений этой идеи: в одном случае ключевым моментом образования сквозной структуры цикла оказывается взаимодействие тональностей - одноименных и параллельных; в другом - взаимодействие метроритмов; и, наконец, импульс к построению сквозной композиции цикла может исходить от лаконичной темы, наделенной функцией эпиграфа. Перефразируя известную мысль Асафьева, можно сказать: идея одна, а форм ее претворения множество. The deveLopment of art, according to Pasternak, obeys the Law of attraction. One of the various exampLes is the idea of the cross-cutting deveLopment cycLe by Beethoven; none of the Later composers from Chopin (Sonata b flat minor) to Bruckner and MahLer passed by this idea. Brahms occupies a significant pLace in this process. One can discover a variety of embodiments of the idea in this articLe on the exampLe of six chamber and instrumentaL ensembLes of the composer, different by number of instruments and time of writing: piano trios op. 8 (2 version) and op. 40, string quartets op. 51 and op. 67, CLarinet Quintet op. 115. In one case, the interaction of keys - paraLLeL and reLative ones-is the centerpiece of the formation of the cross-cutting cycLe structure. In another case, the point is the interaction of metre-rhythms. And finaLLy, the impuLse to the buiLding of the cross-cutting cycLe composition can come from a concise theme endowed with the function of the epigraph. To paraphrase an idea of Asafiev, it can be stated that the idea is the same, but the forms of embodiments are muLtipLe.

This article is an interdisciplinary study that aims to form a comprehensive view of music and church singing both in the educational process of collegium students and outside it. Thanks to the historical sources involved, we were able to clarify the mechanism of functioning of church singing both in the collegium and at the stage of primary (preparatory) education of future students, as well as its role in the life of collegium graduates who made careers in the major vocal chapel of the Russian Empire. The preparatory stage for the future students was studying in parish schools, where an obligatory discipline was irmoloinyi singing. It is probable that in the 18th century, the teaching of singing in the collegium was carried out in the primary classes, where Church Slavonic literacy was studied at the same time, and in the first years of the 19th century musical singing was officially reflected in the name of a separate class. All students of the collegium underwent compulsory liturgical singing practice. The most gifted of the students were members of the Episcopal Cathedral Vocal Chapel. The students of the collegium were not limited to singing only in the cathedral; they also sang during the festive processions, during the begging, as well as in the parish churches during the holidays, where they also taught church singing. Among the music books, we know for sure about several Irmologions that were used in the collegium. From the memoirs of an eyewitness of the first third of the 19th century, we learn about the singing of hymns during public exams, as well as the singing of vocal concerts during the traditional holiday greetings to the Bishop, Rector, and Prefect of the seminary. It was noted that this tradition existed in the last quarter of the 18th century. Such a practice did exist at the same time in Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, so this evidence seems plausible. The only evidence of the use of musical instruments among the students of the Pereyaslav Collegium comes from the descriptions of the May recreational festivities, when both vocal and instrumental ensembles from among the pupils were heard.

The choice of the following subject is conditioned by the artistic practice itself. The double bass not only being today an indispensable element of symphony and chamber orchestras, of different instrumental ensembles (trio, quartets, quintets, etc.), but also as a soloistic instrument, whose expressive possibilities as a soloist and participant in the instrumental dialogue reveals the genre of concerto for this instrument. The concerto has been and remains an object widely explored both by musical practice, through the creation of composers and the work of performers, and by musicological science by examining the most diverse aspects of the genre in numerous studies conducted by researchers in different countries. The dialogic character of narrating, the highlighting of the solo interpretation, and the realization of the principal of the artistic act are most frequently called as specific features of the concerto. The genre of the instrumental concerto is a suitable field for the investigation and experiments of the composers, for the manifestation of the artistic potential of the performers, as well as for the application of the analytical abilities of the researchers.

In this article part of musical activities of two federal Sokol organizations (JSS and SSKJ) in interwar Yugoslavia will be thoroughly examined. Despite the fact that these organizations were primarily focused on development of gymnastics and certain individual sports, cultural advancement of its members as well as of Yugoslav population also occupied an important place, particularly in the 1930s. As a result of broadening of Sokol?s work, musical amateurism started to gain prominence in Sokol legions, societies and parishes (zupe). This was reflected in the proliferation of Sokol vocal and instrumental ensembles, as well as their performances in various Sokol units, both in urban and rural areas. The flourishing of musical activities among Sokols from different parts of the country led to the change of circumstances in the cultural sphere of these regions, particularly in the undeveloped ones. Among other things, this included giving an impetus to the preservation and popularization of tamburitza orchestras and epic singing to the accompaniment of the gusle, promotion of national and Slavic music repertoire and enrichment and diversification of musical life.
