Abstract
The article analyzes the process of social and musical communication formation in Russia
from the historical perspective. In practical and theoretical aspects the first attempts to manage
social and musical life of the country are considered. Since 30s–40s of the XIXth century,
concert societies of a communicative orientation are created in Russia. The first years of the
second half of the XIXth century, associated with the development of democratic principles,
are marked by a surge in the attention of professional musicians to social and communication
processes in music and art in general.
The formation of more mature public tastes and the emergence of new trends in the concert
life of Russian cities stimulated the renewal of forms of social and musical communication,
which required the training of specialists in the field of music education and enlightenment.
The opening of conservatories in Saint Petersburg and Moscow created the necessary prerequisites
for building a unified system providing not only the formation, but also the subsequent
self-regulation of musical communication processes in society. At the beginning of the
XXth century Russian National Conservatories played their role in the overall process as one of
the effective models of the educational movement and as an example of practical implementation
of the tasks of purposeful socio-cultural design in the sphere of functioning of musical art
of high spiritual tradition.
