During this period, characterized by a changes in cultural imperatives, songs retained their role as the most important accessible form of leisure and were actively used for the implementation of ideologically correct, from the point of view of the authorities, ideologemes. The author comes to the conclusion that the most popular historical event was the Civil war, the memory of which was necessary for the education of a new generation of Soviet people, who, like their fathers, should successfully defend the achievements of the revolution.
