SOME ASPECTS OF TRADITIONAL VOCAL AND PERFORMING STYLE AND ITS ADAPTATION TO MODERN SINGING PRACTICE (THROUGH THE EXAMPLE OF BELGOROD REGION)

The paper is focused on the feasibility of the thesis that vocal performance in a traditional (folk) style is an effective way of world apprehension and self-conception. Methodologically the paper is presented in the form of axiological discussions to the reasoning of Lotman Y.M., Bayburin A.K., Pashina O.A. concerning folk music as information paradox, a sacral sound language, an acoustic code following the comparative analysis of traditional folk singing in Belgorod Region rural areas and modern vocal folk-singing. The output of the research is a representation plan of axiological grounds of folk song culture adaptation in the modern singing practice. The application of the output is possible in case of understanding of your own voice significance as a "tool" in the study of "Self", influencing and affecting the person's health, emotional well-being, and spiritual world; as well as in cognition of the sound sphere of folk music through specialized education. The main conclusions are: singing (voice) affects the person through sound waves and vibrations; the sound produced by a person possesses an information resource; the "deeper" study and more effective sound knowledge of traditional folk music is, the stronger is the bond between generations and the preservation of folk memory of spiritual values; folk song as a means of world perception may be an effective means of human adaptation to the modern world, provided treating it not as a "light" genre of popular culture capable of just entertaining, but as a reflection in it spiritual and religious mentality of Russian people.
