The current state of research on the free oscillations of the sun is reviewed. Observational data on oscillations with periods from 5 to 160 min published through the end of 1980 are described. The interpretation of these data in connection with research on the internal structure of the sun is discussed. A theory of the free oscillations in the linear adiabatic approximation is described; differential rotation is taken into account. The principles for classifying the theoretical normal modes are discussed. The problem of the excitation of the solar oscillations is outlined. The theoretical normal-mode spectra of Jupiter and Saturn are discussed.
