The article deals with the systemic semantic analysis of the phraseological units related to phraseosemantic field "Music" in the English language. In this phraseosemantic field the notion “Music” is the dominant one. The main elements and means of expression of music are scale, rhythm, tempo, melody, harmony, instrumentation. According to the instrument of performance, music is subdivided into vocal, instrumental and vocal-instrumental music. Also, sometimes subdivisions into forms and kinds (opera, chamber music) and genres (song, etc.) are used. The microfields “Rudiments of Music” and “Musical instruments” studied in this paper are very closely intertwined and are united in common archiseme “Music”. In our study of communicative phraseological units, we distinguish prototype situations and prototype semes – for nominative phraseological units. Prototype situations and semes underlying the group of phraseological units studied are generally similar, but largely coinciding, they differ in subtle aspects, details and describe particular unique traditions, specifics of the daily routine and culture, historic customs of the native English speakers.
