By focusing on the modern stages of the development of musical art, culturally
creative structures are determined, which have become a manifestation of the systemdefining trends and spiritual vectors of the cultural region. These include composer
creativity and professional music education, on the basis of which the most important
forms of concert performance are developed, the structuring of the strategy of
musical creativity and the popularization of music, and the support of creative youth.
At this stage of the functioning of the musical art, scientific research of cultural life
was carried out, musical and educational complexes, the latest concert organizations
were created, voluminous culture-creating structures of systemic importance were
deployed and became the component that accelerated the separation and development
of important trends and vectors of the modern trade process in the region.

phenomenon from the point of view of composer creativity, performance, music
education and the popularization of music is associated with the nature of their
definition of spiritual and valuable continuums and meanings, as well as the
understanding of musical and creative activity from the point of view of the
transformation of composers' writing, performing culture of modern
philharmonic -concert environment, which are characterized by an increase in
musical and professional priorities and creative strategies of spiritual personalities
(composers, conductors, soloists) and the creative environment in general.
Taken together, analytical approaches make up a wide range of methods of
cognition of the phenomenon of art, which ensures their interaction in the
implementation of the research process.

Chernihiv", "Chernigov composer school", "Chernigov choral school", "Chernigov
kobzar tradition (school)" are introduced, because musical art in the regional spatial
vertical-horizontal dimension is able to solve national cultural problems by
stimulating their changes.
Consequently, the art criticism discourse of the regional, in the aspect of
defining the essential contents of cultural locations, changes the hierarchy of the
means of functioning of musical art in the cultural space of the 20th - 21st centuries.
