This research aims to meet the needs of the international performing arts professionals interested in delivering a relevant, contemporary, and engaging curriculum that combines the educational principles of the Classical University and the requirements needed for the survival of the Performing Arts in the digital epoch. Regardless of the existed restrictions, an increasing internationalization of performing arts education urges the creation of new methodological approaches in curriculum design. The authors identify key features of the modern educational strategies via benchmarking the actual curriculum structure on master’s degree (Level 7 by European Qualifications Framework) programmes in Austrian and Russian HEI’s. The overall goal is to elaborate the model of the innovative and academically strong curriculum for the master's degree programme in vocal arts. Acclaimed in national, regional, and global dimensions, the updated performing arts education programmes enrich the actual cultural landscape worldwide.
