ENHANCING COLLABORATIVE PERFORMANCE SKILLS WITH BANDS FOR VOCAL MUSIC STUDENTS AT THANH HOA UNIVERSITY OF CULTURE, SPORTS AND TOURISM

Abstract

The ability to perform collaboratively with a band is an essential competence for vocal music students in artistic performance contexts. This paper examines the role and current state of collaborative performance skills between vocal music students and bands. The findings indicate that although vocal music students have had opportunities to engage in practical performance with bands within the training program, such opportunities remain limited. Based on these findings, the study proposes several solutions to enhance training quality and to improve the professional performance competencies of vocal music students at Thanh Hoa University of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
