Summary/Abstract: The research allows making conclusions that the musical situation at an elementary school is unsatisfactory. One of the reasons is musical competence of elementary school teachers. The programme of music for an initial class of a comprehensive school presents high requirements to musical competence. The teachers should own knovvledge in the field of the theory and history of music, methods of musical education, singing and instrumentai playing skills, to know modern children's repertoire, and to own alive speech. With this purpose, 204 teachers of elementary schools from all over Lithuania were interrogated. They have expressed their point of view about music, handicaps for conducting musical lessons, problems of teacher training and lack of musical contents.
