Итог:The article explores Ukrainian religious musical art and highlights the transformative aspects of the development of Ukraine's spiritual music against the backdrop of cultural and historical changes. This phenomenon is analyzed as both a manifestation of the religiosity of the Ukrainian nation and its spiritual essence, as well as the result of the creative pursuits of composers--their doubts and efforts to infuse musical harmony with religious meaning and envelop their works with profound Christian significance. Spiritual music manifests and functions in various spheres of social existence but most naturally, fully, and effectively demonstrates its "life parameters" within temple and church ceremonies, where favorable conditions for its existence are pre-established and provided. Therefore, investigating the functional aspect of this phenomenon is crucial through the lens of these ceremonies, considering it not only as a necessary ritual element but also as a cooperative factor of church arts, capable of being born as a result of the talent of Ukrainian composers. By examining the complex network of connections and intermediations organically woven into religious ceremonies, the goal is to present the most significant stages of development and formation of Ukrainian religious musical art. This phenomenon, in turn, is meant to provide life-meaning orientations, allowing this music to transcend the boundaries of temple worship and become a self-sufficient sociocultural phenomenon. It is argued that an essential element of the religious complex is its cult—the realization of religious ideas in daily mystical practice. For most Christians, religious musical art used in worship is the alpha and omega of their religious understanding and religiosity in general. In the context of this study, the selected list of Ukrainian religious musical artists presented here is a unique factor not only in creating various samples of religious and spiritual music but also serves as a link between the past and the future. This connection emerges as a key factor in the cultural interest in studying, analyzing, and forecasting the role and place of religious musical art in contemporary Ukraine.
