Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to reveal the specifics of the formation of free jazz, emphasizing its essential features and outlining the ways of interaction with other areas of musical art, which are manifestations of freedom of the direction. The scientific methodology involves the use of a comparative method to illuminate the features of the appearance of free jazz stylistics in the works of various musicians. The use of analytical and systematic approaches is appropriate for the selection of the essential features of the direction and their generalization. Scientific novelty. The features of free jazz as a direction corresponding to the aesthetics of postmodernism are revealed. His ability to interact with academic and ethnic music is underlined. From these areas, free-jazz borrows nonconventional ways of sound production, techniques of the game, tools, and principles of composition arrangement. Conclusions. Free jazz is one of the promising trends in contemporary musical art. His essential features are the desire for freedom - in a modal, rhythmic, structural relation. An extremely large influence on the formation of free jazz improvisations was academic music. It is the interaction with the avant-garde musical culture that introduces jazz in the rejection of tonality as such that it can be replaced by polytonality, atonality, or even elements of serialism. An important feature of free jazz is the desire to reveal the freedom of the artist, which can be manifested in the total improvisation of works, borrowing elements of ethnic music, actionist, and performance. Often, free-jazz is perceived as a piece of protest music that is acutely social in nature and directed against the policies of individual leaders or parties.
