Summary/Abstract: The topicality and importance of the theme addressed in this article are determined by the extent of the phenomenon of academization of the most performing types of chromatic harmonica by adopting the traditional genres of European instrumental music, including the sonata. The historical evolution of the sonata for accordion / bayan, reflecting various stylistic orientations and trends of contemporary composition, is presented randomly, being primarily examined in the creation of a certain composer. A large part of the investigations is devoted to the elucidation of the specific peculiarities of the works composed in the period of 1970-1980 by Russian and Ukrainian musicians. Most of the studies carried out by European scholars are limited only to informative materials (brochures, annotations etc.), failing to identify and formulate the defining characteristics of the sonata within certain schools of composition.
