PROBLEMS OF TEACHING MUSIC-THEORETICAL DISCIPLINES IN MUSIC EDUCATION IN BUKOVINA IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE 19th CENTURY: BASED ON THE TEXTBOOKS AND SONG COLLECTIONS BY SYDIR (ISIDOR) VOROBKEVYCH

Summary/Abstract: This article explores the role of Sydir (Isidor) Vorobkevych in the development of music education in Bukovina in the second half of the 19th century, with particular attention to the formation of music-theoretical training in regional educational institutions. The study outlines Vorobkevych’s views on music-aesthetic education and the establishment of singing as a school subject. Music-theoretical disciplines  solfeggio, music theory and harmony  are defined as key components of the professionalization of music education. Special emphasis is placed on the analysis of the structure and content of the Romanian-language textbook Manual de Armonia musicală (1869) and on the song collections for elementary schools published in Vienna and Chernivtsi. The article also examines the church-musical and spiritual-educational aspects of Vorobkevych’s activity, reflected in his choral works intended for liturgical and school practice. The research demonstrates that his pedagogical legacy contributed to the formation of an integrated model of music-theoretical education in Bukovina and highlights the relevance of further historical and musicological investigation of his work.
