Description

The purpose of the article is to identify the features of mastering the performing traditional musical culture by participants of youth (mainly urban) folklore and ethnographic groups. Goal pursuit deals with the following challenges: to analyse the creative process of the secondary folklore forms, the role of the secondary groups in the preservation, development, and communication of traditional culture, and also the way youth folklore ensembles interact with other components of the intersection of scientific and artistic art, folklore and amateurism. The research methodology is based on the use of general scientific methods of cognition and musicological methods: source studies, practical, analytical, which allowed us to analyse the outlined issues. The scientific novelty of the study consists in substantiating the need to use the method of “oral” folklore expedition as the most effective way to master traditional performing culture in the creative activities of the secondary youth scientific and ethnographic groups. Conclusions. The study provides an analysis of the specific features of the creative activity of the youth folklore formations. It has been revealed that the activities of these formations could be both constructive (work for the preservation and development of traditional folk culture) and destructive (work in the sphere of mass culture, where national roots are leveled). It has been proved that only in the process of folklore and ethnographic work, which is the basis for the creative activity of the secondary folk singing group of any status (amateur, professional), there is an effective process of learning and mastering the authentic polyphonic song texture.
