Abstract
In modern science studies, there is an increasing interest in the history of the development
of Russian science, which allows to determine the leading trends in its evolution. This article
examines one of the main directions of scientific knowledge — the process of integration of
sciences, which in the XXth century was actualized in Russian musicology.
The purpose of the work is to reconstruct the historical stages of the formation of integrative
trends in the national musical science of this period. Diachronic and synchronic methods make
it possible to consider the studied problems in the "horizontal" dimension and in the context
of "vertical-historical" connections, which reveals the trajectory of the integration process and
justifies the existence of two different periods in the Russian music science of the XXth century.
The article analyzes the categorical apparatus of integrative directions adopted in modern
philosophy of science: these are such concepts as "interdisciplinarity", "polydisciplinarity" and
"transdisciplinarity". The analysis of research practice shows that the most typical term for
musicology is "interdisciplinarity".
Currently, the phenomenon of interdisciplinary interactions in musicology is a little-explored
area. Turning to the history of the formation of integrative directions as an object of
study allows to supplement the scientific picture of the world of musicology and contribute to
the development of a general theory of the integration of sciences.
