REPERTOIRE PROBLEMS IN THE PERFORMANCE PRACTICE OF THE UZBEK NATIONAL INSTRUMENTAL ENSEMBLE AND THEIR SOLUTIONS

Abstract

This article analyzes issues related to repertoire selection and formation in the performance practice of the Uzbek national instrumental ensemble. It examines the main sources of ensemble repertoire, the problem of repetitiveness in existing works, the shortage of newly composed pieces, challenges in instrumentation and arrangement, and the insufficient representation of regional musical traditions. The paper also discusses shortcomings in repertoire formation within educational institutions and explores ways to develop repertoire that meets contemporary stage requirements. Scientific and practical recommendations for addressing repertoire-related problems are proposed.
