Methods. Conventional pedagogical research methods were applied: theoretical analysis of scientific and pedagogical literature, comparative analysis, empirical and modeling methods. Results. In the course of the research, the essence of methodological competence in the context of solving the issues of a potential music teacher’s professional training was theoretically substantiated. It is determined that the content of the curriculum for higher education 014 Secondary Education (Music) focuses the applicant of the first bachelor’s degree on the formation of «polyphonic» methodological and pedagogical thinking.

Among the methods that aroused the greatest interest of students during pedagogical practice it should be point out the holding of master classes, music-pedagogical trainings, discussions the issues of pupils’ teaching by art means.
