Its purpose is to show what the school’s teaching profile and training practices look like in operation. The discussion opens with the conservatory’s long record in vocal education and the position it holds within the Russian vocal tradition. It then moves to the heart of its pedagogy, particularly the view that technical work and artistic expression belong together and cannot be treated separately. Two recurrent practices receive close attention: staged training and one-to-one teaching. Opera and art song, supported by a wide-ranging curriculum in artistic literacy, are presented as central to the development of students’ stage abilities. The study closes by considering how the system keeps national tradition and modern ideas in balance, and what that balance may offer to vocal teaching reform and development at home.Gnessin State Conservatory of Music in Russia,Soprano teaching,Vocal music education,Teaching model,Artistic practice
