This article is dedicated to the materials of the archives of Prince V. F. Odoevsky, a remarkable Russian musician-researcher, author of the first publications on the theory of znamenny chant. Talking about the manuscripts of V. F. Odoevsky, the author dwells in more detail on those that are in the Russian National Museum of Music and makes a general overview of the fund and its history. The collection of V.F. Odoyevsky's RNMM includes the Prince's musical compositions, materials for the study of folk songs and church hymns, theoretical works on harmony, acoustics, Odoyevsky's letters, notebooks, bills, receipts, photographic materials, handwritten notes from Odoyevsky's library, printed materials and programs, as well as literary manuscripts and other materials by various authors. In general, most of the completed works on Old Russian art by V.F. Odoevsky have been published. A huge number of different drafts and excerpts often represent different versions of the same works. The article goes on to describe the manuscript "Russian Ancient Church Hymn" (f. 73 No. 219), it was not completed by Odoevsky and was not published. It touches on most of the provisions expressed by Odoevsky in published articles, in particular, articles for the Archaeological Congress in Moscow.
