Annotation

This article is devoted to a comprehensive study of the evolution of musical tunings and their role in the formation of instrumental culture. Based on the analysis of researchers' works (Lobanov, Garbuzov, Kharlap, Barbour, Lindley, Korykhalova, Lebedev), the key stages in the development of musical tunings, their influence on the design and tuning of instruments, as well as the connection with the aesthetic, cultural, and philosophical ideals of various eras are considered. Special attention is paid to the transition from meantone temperament to equal temperament, which became an important stage in the history of music, influencing composition, performance practice, and the development of musical instruments. The article also touches upon the issues of pitch perception and its relationship with musical tuning, as well as the role of folk traditions in the formation of musical systems.
