The article presents an analysis of contemporary methodological models of teaching singing, including creative approaches; the scientific and theoretical foundations of their application are revealed, along with examples of developing original modifications of vocal instruction for young people aimed at their further implementation in performance and educational activities. The results of research conducted by vocalists-pedagogues from different countries are substantiated, and relevant scientific and practical experience is generalized. Specific features of modern creative methodological systems of vocal training are identified in accordance with the research objectives; the effectiveness of the proposed methodological foundations is demonstrated through the application of tested psychological-pedagogical and professionally oriented findings within higher artistic and pedagogical education, as well as through the conceptual renewal and modification of contemporary international methodological models of teaching singing to students. The proposed methodological concept serves as a foundation for generalizing creative models of vocal instruction with the aim of their application in independent performance and educational practice. A range of theoretical conclusions of world-renowned vocal pedagogues is highlighted, and the prospects of applying diverse approaches to the development of singing abilities and the vocal apparatus of learners in art education are substantiated. The study emphasizes the importance of considering the intellectual potential of interdisciplinary reflection among vocal art specialists for the effective application of international methodological experience; it also justifies the use of traditional sources underlying the development of national vocal schools, the pathways of their professional autonomy, and their capacity to enrich established methodologies and historically grounded theoretical concepts of human vocal apparatus development. The content of contemporary creative methods employed by teachers-vocalists is generalized, and the progressive impact of granting greater freedom to the singing voice is demonstrated. The promising ideas for addressing the outlined problem are proposed through the integration of scientific and methodological achievements of vocal instructors. The study presents evidence of the effectiveness of further improvement and modernization of vocal teaching models for student youth, as well as the potential formation of an international methodological framework for vocal training models aimed at enriching global vocal culture
