Summary/Abstract: The paper defines two different approaches to musical contents in teaching aural skills: modal-specific (unimodal) and multimodal approach. The first one — modal-specific refers to treatment of content through only one activity, either singing or aural perception and this one prevails in practice in teaching solfeggio (aural skills) in Republic of Serbia. The importance of strengthening musical auditory performance suggests a specific aspect of multimodal approach (literal parallelism in performance and perception) that involves the treatment of the same content through different senses, but with a time distance. Preferably, the first musical input is executed through the visual sense, the other (subsequent) one through the aural and final one through the tactile sense (playing the instrument).
