In this context, the training of musicians as actors shaping the country’s intellectual, cultural, and creative landscape, oriented toward the teaching profession, is of paramount importance. The primary focus of this study is the process of musicians’ pedagogical development within the context of the 21st-century educational paradigm. The study draws on the scientific legacy and practical needs of music teacher training in Russia, identified through an analysis of the key challenges and new opportunities for effective teaching. Based on this, key areas and approaches for effectively preparing musicians for teaching in the modern era are explored and proposed.
