Abstract: This paper discusses some issues of professional musical culture of the European type in Siberia in pre-Soviet period, from the perspective of the problem of “centre-periphery”, and the “centres”are the European part of Russia and foreign Europe, and the Siberian region acts as the “periphery”. The study indicated the role of the centrifugal forces of this relationship, namely, the migratory waves from the centre into the region. These waves were intensive during extreme events and contributed greatly to the development of professional musical culture of Siberia. Attention is given to such a typological feature of professional musical culture of Siberia (the periphery) as a direct dependency on creating culture migratory waves from the centre, which affected the dynamics of culture development. Listing the most massive waves of migration, which happened due to the socio-political and economic disasters and brought into the region major musical creativity, the author focuses on the analysis of musical reality in Krasnoyarsk during the First World War and the Civil War (1914-1919). Research work, based on historical records, reveals the role of migrants (POWs of the First World War, refugees, foreign military allies of the White movement) in the development of musical life and culture of Krasnoyarsk
