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 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 the formation of a unified musical
communication system 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.
In parallel with the empirical search for effective ways and methods of managing the musical
life of society, the creation of its theoretical basis was intensively pursued. At the late
60s – early 70s musicology was enriched by the first fundamental works on this subject.
