Introduction
The actuality of the course paper. Intensive social and cultural development of Uzbekistan during the years of independence is one of characteristic features in the country’s life, where brisk dialogue of traditions in various spheres of art, including music is also extremely intensive. We can talk about a peculiar Renaissance of Uzbek music, about its active and diverse functioning in our era, about obvious updating of its stylistic and expressive opportunities. Revolutionary changes of Uzbekistan for the past 25 years have caused a significant change in destiny of Uzbek art culture. Traditional musical culture of Uzbek people is one of the brightest representations of culture and mentality of a population in the history of mankind. The peculiar lifestyle associated with nomadic movement and sedentary living generated deeply unique traditional culture which origins go back to ancient days, at least three millennia that to a considerable extend also related to the formation and development of Uzbek statehood and Uzbek nation. The art heritage of the Uzbek people, which is rich with variety types and genres, has centuries-old traditions. In this huge heritage which is, as a matter of fact, historical memory of the people, its thousand-year spiritual experience, an important place is taken by the music differing in the pronounced national originality, depth of figurative and emotional contents, peculiar reflection of outlook, various aspects of everyday life, thoughts and aspirations of the Uzbek people. The concept of modern musical culture of Uzbekistan is no longer identified with only composers’ works, as the traditional music still continues to function full-blooded. Furthermore, in the period of independence traditional national art endures the period of bright revival. At the same time dramatically enhanced prestige of the traditional national forms of music-making has in many respects changed the general situation in musical life of not only our republic, but in general also in entire Central Asian region, and placed accents in a new historically more true way where the traditional monadic genres are not only a heritage, but also the present. A key feature of artistic culture of modern Uzbekistan is diversity of the manifestations of “art of sounds”, simultaneous existence of music of different cultural and historical eras, national creative schools, styles and directions (taking into account that Uzbekistan is a multinational republic) satisfying the artistic needs of various social strata of the society. Dynamics of musical culture is based on the development of national traditions in synthesis with traditions of world culture. The active perception of different national influences, creation of new musical types, genres and forms, in essence the system of arts, corresponding to new social experience of the people became the leading line of development of the Uzbek culture. Modern Uzbek music developed on the basis of national age-old musical-performing and creative traditions and has developed its own musical language using at the same time also achievements of the European and Oriental musical cultures. In conditions of independent development of Uzbekistan the search for new principles of national identity, ways of comprehension of traditional and innovative musical and artistic concepts is actualized in musical culture of the country. This is, in particular, the State Program “Mankind masterpieces” of UNESCO International musical festivals, etc., that promotes formation of new methodological outlooks of understanding of musical practice, development of explanatory models of its development.
