The article analyzes the formation of the art of playing instruments of military orchestras, which is a continuation of the ensemble practice of the XV-XVI centuries in the instrumental culture of the XVII-XIX centuries, in the process of gradual evolution of the modern instrumental composition of the military orchestra. The author defines the stages of the evolution of the expression of wind and percussion instruments, the combination of signaling and communicative functions in military music, the appearance of elements of independent instrumental performance, the emergence of the foundations of timbre dramaturgy and the individualization of timbre colors of orchestra instruments; the mutual influence of the further development of performing tools and instrumentation on composition and instrumentation, where the combination of both expressive and compositional functions in the timbres of instruments of military orchestras is traced. The revealed algorithms for the formation of expressiveness and the prospects for the development of the expression of wind and percussion instruments are today an unshakable foundation for the further development of performance on instruments of military orchestras.
