Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to clarify the artistic role of the ensemble “Chervona Ruta” in the context of Ukrainian musical culture. The relevance of the study lies in the development of principles of a new vision, trends in the development of the ensemble “Chervona Ruta” in the context of Ukrainian pop and ensemble performance and its role in the development of musical culture of Ukraine. The methodology of this study is the application of comparative-historical method, which allows us to trace the historical context of the ensemble and the context of the development of pop and ensemble art of Ukraine. The chronological method allows to determine the stages of formation and development of the team on the example of the analysis of concert and performance activities of the ensemble. Vocal and pop performance on the example of the ensemble “Chervona Ruta” appears as a dynamic cultural and artistic phenomenon. The song repertoire of the ensemble appears as a translator of the identity of Ukrainian culture, which is confirmed by the presence of folk intonations and the involvement of appropriate instruments. The study of the processes of formation and development of ensembles allows us to identify the traditions of Ukrainian pop music, which is a prerequisite for the formation and development of musical art in Ukraine. Despite the existing achievements in the study of ensemble performance, the issues of the influence of ensemble work on Ukrainian artistic music culture remain insufficiently studied, which highlights the need for a comprehensive analysis of the specifics of pop vocal and ensemble performance, especially the band “Chervona Ruta” as a creative phenomenon of pop ensemble. The creative path of the ensemble “Chervona Ruta” began a new stage in the formation of pop song repertoire, which differs from the previous significant changes in genre richness, functional features and new means of performance. The popularization of Ukrainian pop song contributed to the development of television, the improvement of sound recording and reproducing equipment, the emergence of electromusical instruments. All this contributed to the emergence of numerous amateur vocal and instrumental ensembles – a hallmark of a new era in the development of popular music. The advent of VIA brought new ways of artistic expression to the stage – new timbre paints, the use of electromusical instruments with their specifics, the use of various electronic systems, the strange sound of voices in extreme tension. Conclusions. Ensemble art in various genre and stylistic forms has always played a significant role in social life and has enjoyed the widest popularity among composers, performers and listeners in all historical epochs and in general remains popular today. The rise and prosperity of VIA coincided with a period of intensive scientific and technical discoveries – radio engineering, electronics, sound recording. Participants of vocal-instrumental ensembles can be called musicians-performers of a new type, they are at the same time singers, musicians, actors and authors. The new domestic VIA combined the features of big beat and enriched them with national elements, in their programs there is a tendency to synthesize with theater, choreography. A new youth spectator stood out from the former regular audience of the stage, the regulatory functions of the mass media increased.
