Annotation:
In the second half of the 20th century scholars started to talk about a new world view – Tengrianism, or the worship of the Sky deity Tengri (Тәңiр in Turkic languages). In earlier works this world view had been known under other names, such as “Altaic shamanism” or “the cult of ancestor spirits”. Nowadays we are only beginning to appreciate its significance for the spiritual culture of Eurasia and even beyond.
Tengriism is the worldview that is complex of relations with nature and with the landscape, in which the ethnos formed, the Picture of the World allows this belief system to be beneath later coming Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, and to light them from within by alive breathing cultural traditions, while sometimes remaining little noticed.
The idea of this work is to map the geographical locations of the musical traditions of Tengri, and hence Tengri outlook, considering the areas of distribution of musical instruments which are the carriers of the soul essence of this outlook. Really, music is not material phenomenon, but musical instruments materialize in subjects of a “firm” matter.
