Abstract
Music is an important component of the Evenk heroic folk poems. The article describes the role of folk melodies in the Evenk epos system including historic poems “Brave Hero Sodani” and “All-Powerful Develchen in the Embroidered and Decorated Clothes” based on the myths about the Evenks living in the Middle World, travelling to the Upper World and fi ghting against evil forces of the Lower World. While performing the Evenk heroic folk poems, musical recitation with an intensifi ed vocal and music component is used depending on the dramatic nature of the scene or the character’s description. The songs-monologues of the heroes have their own features of melody, mode, rhythm and timbre
