More than a hundred years ago the founder of Russian folk instruments orchestra Vasilii V. Andreev formulated
socio-cultural position, artistic and aesthetic principles of folk instrumental art. Changes they have undergone since
then concern their social functions and place in cultural life of society, scientifi c views on the essence of this kind of
music, etc. Modern research demonstrates both positive and negative tendencies in the development of folk music.
Weakening of national element in folk traditions, loss of essential unity of this kind of music, attempts to subdivide
culture into folk and elite seem to be dangerous tendencies caused by globalization process and mistakes of
musicologists as well. Theory of this quickly developing kind of art should support stability of its development.
