The research methodology is based on a combination of general scientific and musicological approaches, in particular: system approach hermeneutic, historical, comparative, genre-style, interpretive method, as well as performance analysis. The results of the study indicate that domestic art schools were formed by synthesizing several national and historical style traditions. Music and performance schools were actively developing in parallel with the compositional work in Ukraine in the second half of the twentieth century; the work of representatives of those schools presents a fairly wide range of style research. A natural result of the studied problem of musical performing style should be its transfer to the practical plane of professional education of musicians and performers, formation of musical style competence in students. Kotlyarevsky Kharkiv National University of Arts was selected as an experimental platform for its formation. During 2019-2021, a pedagogical experiment continued to test the formation of musical and style thesaurus, performance and intellectual skills, professionally important qualities of music students. In the context of studying of different styles in the system of musical performance by the students of higher music education institutions, it is important that the art of music is constantly evolving and new directions and trends in music styles emerge almost every day in Ukraine and the world as a whole. This undoubtedly makes the need for further research on this issue urgent (usually with the use of advanced domestic and foreign experience in music education). Keywords: Style. Category. Art.

The article presents the results of the formative experiment in primary school, carried out directly in the training activity. The purpose of the experiment was to ensure a more effective development of the memory and thinking of junior schoolchildren during the development of educational material in basic subjects and, as a result, increasing their academic performance. The experiment was conducted with students of the second grades (control and experimental) of one of the schools in Rybinsk, studying according to the system «Elementary School of the XXI Century.» To develop attention and memory, a wide range of special exercises were used, included in the lesson plans on the relevant topics of the curriculum in Mathematics, the Russian Language, Literary Reading and the World Around Us (the article gives examples of exercises, the corresponding topics of the lesson, the content of the educational and methodological kit and the dates of classes). Before to start the experiment, students in both classes showed a low level of attention and memory development, so a class with lower performance indicators in most educational subjects was chosen as an experimental one. As a result of the experiment, the indicators of students’ memory development and attention in the experimental class improved significantly, while there were no changes in the control class, and the indicators of attention concentration even decreased. Performance in all subjects, both current and final, in the experimental class also became higher. Thus, the study showed that the effectiveness of the development of attention and memory of modern junior schoolchildren can be increased due to the special organization of educational activities, namely, the inclusion in the educational process of special exercises that do not take additional time in the lesson, but increase the motivation and performance of junior schoolchildren.
