The article reflects the main results of the study of the problem of forming the independence of future music teachers in the process of distance learning. The state of the problem of independence of future music teachers in the process of distance learning and the ways of overcoming it are analyzed. The advantages and disadvantages of distance learning are characterized, and it is being argued that nowadays the combined training has attained mass character, and the development and application of distance courses in the field of training future music
teacher is not an everyday reality. The diagnostics of the developed methodology of this problem is offered. It is determined, that independent educational activity of the future teacher of music in the remote environment is interpreted as a form of external and internal activity of the individual, activity is largely structured by the students themselves, which is subject to procedural control and correction, carried out with the advisory assistance of the teacher, taking into account the psychological peculiarities and personal interests of the future teachers, is a means of their professional development, provides an intensification of processes of professional selfdetermination, self-education and self-regulation, and, in conclusion, forms the independence of the future music teacher. The main tool of distance learning is devised and developed, the main attention is paid to the issues of self-organization of the future teacher of music in the remote environment. The theoretical elaboration of the main provisions of the methodology for forming of the independence of future music teachers creates the optimal grounds for further practical testing. the main reason for the crisis situation in music education is the socioeconomic instability in the country and as a consequence, the lack of professional activity of music teachers and students of music and pedagogical specialties. However, a factor of no less importance in this situation is the unresolved problem in the field of professional music education in a number of topical problems of a theoretical and organizational-practical nature, concerning, in particular, the use of modern means and methods of musical pedagogy, continuity in the work of the system of continuous musical and pedagogical education; organization of
professional education, because it is not a secret that among professional musicians the view on the profession of school teacher of music was rooted in as a secondary, compared to the profession of musician-performer, musicologist or conductor. The ways of further scientific work according the implementation of methodological
achievements and their realization in the development and introduction of own distance course are outlined.
