increase mobility of lecturers and students, social and academic openness and, thus, to faster internationalize studies. Such
processes of study internationalization necessitate the need for training of competent music educators, who are able to
communicate and work in various intercultural contexts. The article deals with the expression of intercultural professional
competence of future music educators and its (self-) development in music education studies. The study included 30 foreign
(Chinese) Master’s degree students, who chose studies at Lithuanian University of Educational Sciences (Music Education).
The research showed that the level of future music educators’ (foreign Master’s students) intercultural competence was not
high. The results of the research indicate the importance of pedagogical impact integrating innovative learning activities into
the process of studies in music education.
