This paper explores the historical development and organizational principles behind the formation of the Uzbek Folk Instrument Orchestra. It examines the cultural, artistic, and educational factors that led to the institutionalization of folk instrument ensembles in Uzbekistan during the 20th century. The study highlights the roles of key figures, such as composers and arrangers, in adapting traditional melodies for orchestral performance. Attention is given to the classification and orchestration of national instruments, as well as the integration of regional performance traditions into a unified concert format. The research emphasizes the orchestra’s importance in preserving and promoting Uzbekistan’s musical heritage, contributing to national identity, and supporting professional music education.
