The purpose of the study is to update and historiographically summarize publications devoted to the study of the characteristics of the pedagogical and educational activities of Russian emigrant musicians in the United States during the first wave of Russian emigration (1918 - late 1930s), as well as its consequences. The sources of this work were a variety of scientific publications - dissertations, monographs, articles, essays. The scientific novelty of this article lies in the fact that, to date, no attempt has been made in the domestic and foreign science of their historiographic generalization. In the course of the study, the following scientific methods were used: theoretical interdisciplinary analysis and synthesis, systemic and structural-functional analysis, comparative-historical, comparative historiographic analysis, historical-typological, etc. In the work, a historiographic generalization of publications by domestic and foreign authors on the problem of the preservation and dissemination of Russian (Soviet) musical and educational traditions in the United States during the first wave of Russian emigration was carried out. As a result of the study, the following modern scientific trends on this topic were highlighted: publications affecting the problem of preserving and disseminating domestic traditions of church singing education; works devoted to the development of Russian traditions of musical enlightenment and general musical education; studies aimed at studying the pedagogical heritage of graduates of domestic conservatories (violinists, composers, pianists).
