Abstract

The classic professional musical art of Yakutia has become a clear distinctive artistic phenomenon since 1990’s. This fact indicates that the professional musical art of Yakutia is a relatively young musical culture. In this paper a number of sources on the history of classical music serve as a material for the analysis and study of the current state of classical music art, revealing specific features of classical music as an ethnos-forming element of Yakut culture. Meanwhile, this area of knowledge at present time is ripe for a substantial research, according to scholars; the fundamental (analytical and synthetic) investigations on music culture are practically absent. To date, there is a number of essential requirements for strengthening and development of its own mechanisms of self-education and self-preservation of the core culture of the northern territories. In its final part the paper contains recommendations on governmental cultural policies, which assist in maintaining distinctive cultural traditions of the circumpolar area
