Musical Computer Technologies as an Instrument of Transmission and Preservation of Musical Folklore (by the Example of the Russian Far East)
Main Article Content
Abstract
The article analyzes the issues of gathering and arrangement of folk musical materials, examines contemporary
informational resources and technologies as a means of preservation and transmission of musical folklore.
The Far East is a unique ethnic region inhabited by bearers of various cultures on its region, however, traditional
folk music is rapidly disappearing, as the bearers of these languages are gradually dying out. Musical computer
technologies (MCT) may become a perspective tool for mastery, transmission and preservation of phenomena of
musical culture, in connection with which there arises the necessity of the swiftest implementation of MCT into the
practice of activities of folk music researchers.
Disclosure of unique specimens of traditional musical creativity, the study and comprehension of the most valuable
collected materials, and the work on deciphering – all of these have not lost their relevance. The authors emphasize
the important role of further professional elaboration, cataloguing, classification, systematization and digitization of
data. The article gives support to the idea of a “musical bank” and an “intonational catalogue” of examples of musical
folklore. Accentuation is given to the issue of creation of an education-related space in the domain of the Internet
with application of the opportunities for MCT, which demonstrate themselves, among other things, as a new means
of accumulation and transmission of knowledge about music. The authors come to the conclusion about the ability of
MCT to play a significant role in the process of mastery, transmission and preservation of the musical culture of the
Russian Far East, as well as the development and popularization of the traditional cultural heritage of the multinational
state of Russia.
Keywords: musical computer technologies, traditional musical culture, musical culture of the Far East of Russia,
intercultural communication, transmission of musical culture.
