It is assumed that the most important and topical phenomena of today’s world music culture are going to be comprehended through an analysis of schools and trends of all its branches, such as scholarship, performing art and composition. The history of the Moscow Conservatory, with all its rich traditions, long-term and large-scale creative relations, may become a starting point for scholarly researches on the suggested subject, provided that the topics of the conference will not be focused on the Moscow Conservatory only.

It is planned to launch the work of several sections devoted to issues of various subjects: such as music theory, history, aesthetics and philosophy, as well as hermeneutics, semiotics, sociology, psychology, pedagogy and theory of musical content.

Special attention will be paid to the history and theory of performing art, as well as to various artistic and teaching schools, including not only Moscow and other conservatories and music institutions of Russia and the world but also educational institutions of all levels that form the system of uninterrupted music education.
