Currently, the necessity to establish effective forms and methods of learning in a distance format is gaining particular relevance in the field of musical art development. They will allow for maintaining the quality of the educational process and ensuring the quality of students' musical activity and their acquisition of skills in practical classes. Taking into account the above, the music teacher's goal nowadays is to determine the most effective educational platform with minimal audio and video lag and to organize work in a remote format to ensure a sufficiently high-quality educational process. The purpose of the academic paper is to highlight the primary directions and tendencies of investigating issues in the scientific literature related to teaching musical art in the conditions of distance learning.  In the course of the research, system-structural, comparative, logical-linguistic methods, analysis, synthesis, induction, and deduction were used to process scientific information. Abstraction and idealization were applied to study and process statistical and analytical data. Based on the research results, the concepts and components of music teachers' remote pedagogical activity, the main prerequisites, regularities, and directions of developing training in the field of music education in recent years were studied. The conducted research has shown that the students-musicians' attitude to distance learning is ambiguous, which is related to difficulties in forming practical skills. However, nevertheless, it is possible to get a positive result in the practical experience formation in this field under the condition of increased responsibility on the part of the teacher and making relevant efforts on the part of the education seekers.
