Abstract
Music education and teacher’s skill in music communication are essential for the success of everyday educational practice, in other words, teacher’s music communication is a product of synergy between several factors: basic music literacy, development of music abilities and skills, and degree of its musicality. What kind of musical habit is desired and socially acceptable in a teacher? Is there a possibility of its (re)adjustment in the present teacher education system? In order to provide an answer to that question, we have used students’ music abilities and monitoring of their further development as a starting point. Research was conducted for that specific purpose, and it involved students from Faculty of teacher education in Osijek.
