“…In particular, scholars have noted characteristic features of the importance of information technology for the contemporary training of instrumental music performers. For example, researchers rightly argue that the digital information environment blurs the boundaries between media, thus performing the personalization of musical performance (Wan, 2022). Thanks to modern technology and the Internet, the medium of learning and listening to music courses has become not just part of an elitist worldview, but accessible to a huge number of people-more student involvement mathematically increases the chances of acquiring and nurturing truly gifted instrumental performers (Park, 2021).…”

“…The developers of Notion 6 have installed individual samples from popular performers (musicians and entire orchestras) of today in the library. This includes Steinway piano playing samples, elements of performance by the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios, and selected samples of performance playing by prominent musicians (Wan, 2022). For this reason, applicants to higher music education have a unique opportunity to follow the performance of their score -it will sound as if it were performed by the leading performers of world music.…”

Educational transformations caused by the global pandemic COVID-19 have actualized the use of digital technologies, in particular, in higher music education. The main purpose of the article is to analyze the theoretical and methodological digital educational technologies use aspects in the process of music-instrumental training of applicants for the higher music education of the future. General scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, deduction, and induction) and specifically scientific methods (prediction and concretization) were used in the research. The results reflect the importance of acquiring the necessary competencies in digital teaching methods work. The need for digital competence, communication skills, creativity, cybersecurity, and programming has been justified. The potential of digital technologies in higher music education was also analyzed. Namely, it is proved that the use of digital programs in music and instrumental training of students will expand the audience and lead to the possible collective writing of melodies and entire compositions in the future. To conclude, it is noted that the advantages of using digital technology in music and instrumental training are interactivity, integrality, didactic potential, comfortable learning environment, and creativity. At the same time, a broader study will require methods of teaching in higher music education of the future.

Music education is aimed at the development of musical abilities, emotionality during the performance of musical compositions, and all-round development. The aim of the article is to determine the possibilities of schoolchildren obtaining musical knowledge with the help of modernized online technologies, as well as to determine the importance of a teacher in modern music education. The indicators were determined by a questionnaire, the data collection for which was done using a Likert scale. Initially, the paper identified approaches to teaching students prior to the study. The results showed that more emphasis was placed on the use of book-based theoretical materials (46%), which allowed only 21% of students to achieve a high level of knowledge. The use of information technology was common among 9% of students, which allowed 76% of students to achieve high results, which is based on acquiring knowledge in a shorter time. The authors concluded that it is necessary to provide improved stages of learning, which will expand the use of modernized technology. Work on the theoretical basics of piano playing can be implemented with the Vivace app; Flow app helps one to work on sound features; Functional Ear Trainer app is about developing rhythm and hearing; and Chordana Play app helps one to work on a piece of music. After training, by calculating the coefficient of effectiveness, it was found that students in group #1 (0.791), who mastered the skills of playing the piano according to the developed training stages and without a teacher, showed the quality of acquired knowledge lower than students in group #2 (0.853), who were trained under the direct influence of a teacher. The data obtained confirm the high quality of learning in the groups, as the educational process was built with the correct distribution of workload and providing opportunities for the development of musical skills. It is established that the students of group 1 to a greater extent developed independence (29%), and group 2 was good at the accuracy of musical tasks’ sequence (28%). The practical significance of the work is based on the possibility of transforming the music learning system with the help of modern technology. Prospects for the study can be based on a comparison of the quality of teaching the piano and vocal training, excluding the participation of a teacher in the learning process.

“…One of the key features is playing with the right hand, based on tonal thinking and the development of atonal technique (pitch playing characterised by illogical note sequences used to create harmonious sound effects) with the use of the left hand (Wan 2022). The cross-cultural influence in Chinese piano music has also led to the revision of the musical theory and the writing of piano compositions (Gao 2021).…”

"Archaeological heritage of Turkey has been suffering for ages from severe destruction through the activities of local antiquities looters. The main reasons for this escalating phenomenon among the Turkish population include poverty, enhanced global demand for looted archaeological material in the worldwide market, gaps in laws, folklore, and the addiction to adrenalin experienced by looters. To comprehend the ongoing archaeological destruction caused by looters in Turkey, we need to be willing to investigate their folklore formed in the framework of illicit looting. Even though Turkish law strictly states looting as a crime, Anatolian-Turkish folklore, including oral tradition, does not condemn looters even as deviants. Hence, folklore must be listed as one of the significant excuses why Anatolian archaeological heritage keeps being looted. In recent decades, the destruction of archaeological sites of Anatolia and the loss of cultural heritage have entered a dangerous phase due to local looters having access to technological devices, software, and international connections, as well as folkloric spiritual, ritualistic guidance. My research aims to understand how and under which circumstances looters become looters in the first place. Keywords: Turkey, cultural heritage, folklore, antiquities looters, personal experience narratives. "
