The methodology of the study consists of the use of historically, gnoseological, functional value, as well as specifically sociologic and generalizing methods of analysis. The scientific novelty consists in ascertaining the essence of the above-mentioned method and its decisive role in the formation of a new branch of the common sciences - music knowledge. It is substantiated that the objective focus of her attention on musical culture for many decades leveled the previous focus of scientists on music as a sound phenomenon. It is motivated that the historical muse of science is recommended to focus on the sociological and ideological dimensions, theoretically - on the practical expediency of knowledge. Conclusions. Analysis of the problem of the method of Soviet musicology revealed the factors of its appearance, the main of which was the policy of "culture" which manifested itself in the general dissemination of available knowledge about musical culture for the formation of a new Soviet man. The harm from the unconditional use of the method manifested in the neglect of essential research of the sciences of music, the loss of the proper level of professionalization of scientific personnel, the emergence of a new type of discourse ("cataloging of data"), the origin of the "scientific and pop of the laurel genre", which displaced its scientific publications, was revealed.
