The parity of vocal and instrumental training of a modern performer is emphasized. It is proved that this synthesis is an effective strategy for integrating the Ukrainian national sound into the European cultural space. The features of the uniqueness of the model studied have been identified, including systemic institutionalization, an organic combination of two performing practices and aesthetic convergence of folk authenticity with the principles of academic vocals. The article focuses on the viability of bandura art as a dynamic tool of cultural resistance and self-presentation of Ukraine in the world.
