Hu M. Methods of preparing the choir leader in higher education and educational musical Ukraine and China

In the dissertation the problem of formation of readiness of the future teacher of music to a management of vocal ensembles of pupils is investigated. The concept of "readiness to lead vocal ensembles" is concretized, theoretical and practical aspects of the formation of this phenomenon are revealed. The effectiveness of forming the readiness of the future teacher of music to lead vocal ensembles of students is proved in the conditions of introduction of the experimental methodology that ensures the dynamics of the levels of studied readiness of students from low (unstable) to high (permanent). The developed methodology includes the following stages: incentive-informational, strategic-orientational, integrative-progressive. The generalization of the results of the introduction of the experimental methodology into the practice of art universities in Ukraine and China made it possible to determine the pedagogical conditions for forming the readiness of the future music teacher to lead the vocal ensembles of students. The practical result of the introduction of the developed and approved methodological model of the future teacher's readiness to lead the vocal ensembles provides for the application of a set of effective methods and techniques of designated training. The expected result is the willingness of future music teachers to lead vocal ensembles, which is confirmed by the positive dynamics of growth of all structural components of the studied pedagogical phenomenon, gives grounds to emphasize the appropriateness and prospects of its application for improving the efficiency of vocational training of art faculty students in the system of higher musical pedagogical education.
