The article is devoted to the topical subject of cognitive ethnomusicology – the issue of researching specific features of intonating in the monodic musical traditions of the Finnish- Ugric peoples. Attention is focused on traditional musical improvisations which present a broad domain in the traditions of various ethnic groups in their diversity of types and varieties. The present subject is elucidated by examples of traditional improvisations of the Baltic-Finnish groups in a comparative aspect, bringing in materials and data of researchers from Russia and other countries obtained from musical examples pertaining to various cultures. The monodic stratum of traditional musical improvisations, their communicative function and nature of sound generation are actualized in the context of the traditions’ ideal of sound and are examined in the context of the interaction between the vocal and instrumental elements in ethnic musical cultures. Keywords: cognitive ethnomusicology, ethnic music, musical Finnish-Ugric studies, monodic musical thinking, traditional improvisations, vocal/phonic imitations
