The purpose of article is to consider the musical education as a component of contemporary cultural policy. In order to achieve the mentioned purpose we have to meet the following challenges: to find out, to examine and analyze the national and foreign sources, which reveal the essence of the musical education as a component of modern cultural policy while considering the musical education as a system; to highlight the major points, top targets, main directions and trends; to consider the basic principles of cultural policy in the musical education. The cultural policy issue existing in globalization processes at the beginning of the 21st century has been under special scrutiny by the contemporary society. The necessity to form the effective cultural policy, as an important direction of the state’s activity, is indicated in many international documents and discussed in the international forums. They points out the place of cultural policy in the system of state’s priorities both at the national and foreign policy levels. The cultural policy does not have a unified definition and functions in the wide theoretical discourse. One of the impartial definitions is offered by UNESCO: “The cultural policy is understood as a complex of operational principles, administrative and financial activities and procedures, which forms the basis of the state actions in the sphere of culture. It is a total sum of the conscious actions or inactions in society that are directed at the certain cultural goals by optimal application of the entire physical and spiritual resources those, the society has at one’s disposal”. We also may single out several definitions of the most authoritative authors: O. Domanska, M. Dranichevych-Sheshych, S. Drozhzhyna, O. Kravchenko, V. Malimon. Thus, the cultural policy is a conscious regulation in the sphere of culture at the required decision-making on any issues, which belongs to the cultural development of society as a whole. Don Adams and Arlene Goldbard single out six main directions, at which the cultural policy vector shall be aimed, including the education playing a key role in certain cultural policy, since studying of cultural life of the people community is an educational process. The cultural policy sphere engages with education including the musical education that is a constituent element of culture as a reflection of intellectual development of people. In the contemporary conditions of the social and cultural development, Ukraine demands significant changes in organizing of the musical education, as long as its development in the third millennium needs new approaches, new contents, newest cultural and creative ideas and trends target at renovation and extension of educational programs, effective training methods and procedures. Insufficient knowledge about the issue stipulates our attention to it.

Today the main task of the musical education is to prepare the future masters of musical art, those who are able to self-realization, self-expression in the creative life and vital activity while the main guiding line is focused on the humanistic values.
