The purpose of the study: to develop, theoretically substantiate, and experimentally verify a methodology for forming an individual's ethnocultural competence based on music for percussion instruments.The scientific novelty of the results obtained lies in the fact that for the first time: a study of the issues of ethnocultural competence of the individual in the dimension of music for percussion instruments as a unique means of integrating ethnic traditions, combining rhythmic, symbolic and semantic aspects of cultural heritage, aimed at forming a value attitude towards multiculturalism, as well as developing the professional qualities of future teachers of musical art; the essence of ethnocultural competence of an individual is defined as an integral personal and professional phenomenon, reflecting the ability of an individual to apply knowledge, skills and value orientations associated with different cultural traditions for conscious comprehension, creative interpretation, deep understanding and adaptation of the musical repertoire and methods of artistic training to the needs of modern society in conditions of intercultural interaction, ensuring a harmonious combination of professional skills, communicative sensitivity and emotional involvement in order to promote the formation of tolerance, spiritual enrichment, awareness of cultural diversity and creation of conditions for intercultural dialogue and preservation of the musical heritage of different peoples; The component structure of the phenomenon under study was modeled, which contains four components: personal-axiological (conditions a valuable attitude towards cultural heritage, contributes to a deep understanding of its meaning and the upbringing of tolerance), cognitive-technological (ensures the acquisition of knowledge about the musical traditions of different peoples, skills in the analysis and interpretation of musical works, as well as the integration of innovative pedagogical technologies into the learning process), communicative-interpretative (focused on the development of the ability to intercultural communication and creative interpretation of musical works in the context of ethnocultural dialogue), reflective-innovative (aimed at the analysis and improvement of performing activities, as well as the integration of innovations in the preservation and popularization of ethnic music); a methodological strategy is proposed based on a combination of the principles of axiological, competence-based, hermeneutic and creative-activity scientific approaches, a set of artistic and pedagogical principles relevant to the study is substantiated (polycultural harmony, spiritual and value immersion, integration of rational and emotional, contextual modeling, dialogic interpretation, cultural diversivity, interactive music making, emotional and rhythmic self-expression); A methodology for the formation of ethnocultural competence of an individual based on music for percussion instruments has been developed, which is based on a set of pedagogical conditions: (stimulation of emotional and value-based attitude to ethnocultural artistic and educational content using modern ICT, acquisition and systematization of ethnocultural knowledge using the cognitive and developmental potential of quiz technology, acquisition of practical ethnocultural experience through immersion in the ethnocultural artistic and communicative environment, provision of opportunities for creative self-realization in the process of musical intercultural dialogue), and methods: (rhythm-framework of the ethnocode, cultural rhythm-quiz, interactive musical labyrinths, ethnocultural improvisational dialogue, etc.), the application of which is carried out in accordance with four specially organized stages (value comprehension, accumulation and practical implementation of the information base, acquisition of ethnocultural artistic and interpretative experience, creative adaptation); The following criteria have been developed: value-need, knowledge-operational, conceptual-expressive, regulatory-interactive, and corresponding indicators necessary to establish the levels of formation of an individual's ethnocultural competence.Clarified: the essence of the concepts of ethnoculture, the concept of value-emotional attitude in the preparation of applicants for art education, the specificity of interpretative-emotional connections between rhythm and cultural traditions that influence the formation of ethnocultural competence.
