CONCERTMASTER’S WORK IN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS OF UKRAINE: COMPETENCE ASPECT

The article examines the competent requirements for concertmasters of educational institutions of Ukraine. In late 2010s Ukrainian government revises the requirements for the staff of educational institutions. These revision needs to be issued in three aspects: impact on the quality of the educational process, new com-petencies of educational staff required, and the aim of those revisions. Each of the aspects mentioned requires a separate study for each of the educational areas. The aspect we have chosen is competence, which has become especially acute in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has prompted the authorities to limit and, in some cases, completely bans face-to-face classes in educational institutions. It is shown that the competencies of concertmasters are the ability to play in an ensemble, which requires a high level of playing the instrument, the ability to read notes from a sheet, including scores with a large number of staves, an ability to transpose music and a deep feeling of a soloist playing. However, the new realities, caused by Ukrainian government activities led to new competency requirements for concertmasters working in Ukrainian educational institutions. Namely, these requirements are the ability to work with documents, to conduct organizational and methodological work, to carry out scientific research as well. Moreover, the rise of distance education during Covid-19 pandemic made real-time practice with concertmaster impossible due to imperfections of the Internet communication, namely due to the audio signal latency occurred while using digital communication systems. In this situation, concertmaster should be able to prepare phonograms or remote ensemble recordings, which are performed alternately by the accompanist and soloist. This form also requires special skills, namely an ability to work with information technologies, in particular multimedia. It is concluded that concertmaster of Ukrainian educational institutions is required to be competent not only in piano ensemble playing but also in a lot of other fields not connected to music performance such as office work, scientific research and information technologies.
