Musical and aesthetic adolescents’ competence forms both in secondary school and adult education. The question is: "What are the work principles of out-of-school facilities in the music and aesthetic establishments among the students of this age?". The topicality of this research is caused by necessity in deeper theoretical understanding of various aspects of competence approach, as a basis of reforming the educational and training process in modern conditions. The aim of the article is to reveal the sense and content of principles which build the foundation of the methods in the out-of-school education and direct the statement to the musical and aesthetic competence of adolescent students. In foreign and national literature we meet a lot of competence definitions (Bader R., Mertens D., Shelton A., Raven J., Hutorskoy A., Savchenko O., Beh I., Bibik N. etc.). Despite of some differences in the meaning of this definition, we have found some common such as: person’ ability and willingness to organize learning effectively, abilities, skills, experience for setting and achieving goals. There are maincompetencies, among which there is a general cultural one. Its brunch includes musical and aesthetic direction. In our research, we follow the general approach to competence and define the essence of "musical aesthetic competence" concept. The sense of the musical and aesthetic competence lies on its individual capacity, readiness and real opportunities to accept, integrate and experience the beauty of musical works, play (or create) it practical with understanding of the importance of this type of activity in the social and individual spheres of life and in different social relations.The principle of national focus in education including knowledge of Ukrainian folk songs, works of local composers, ability to perform it (singing accompanied by an instrument),to feel their beauty, to recombine with the nationality, therefore with themselves. It helps to develop the ability to cherish their national identity, to understand music as an integral part of spirituality of the Ukrainian people. Ukraine is a country, which is home for several dozen ethnic groups, or so-called minorities. The Constitution of Ukraine declares that the country supports and creates conditions for the development of their national identity. The representatives of these peoples and ethnic groups should not feel reduced in their rights. Therefore, in the areas where national minorities populated in out-of-school institutions should create special creative nationally directed teams. If in the choir, band, orchestra etc., several participants belong to certain nationalities theirnational works should be included in repertoire. However, all teenagers are the members of the creative teams must be able to sing in Ukrainian language, perform Ukrainian music to feel that they are the citizens of Ukraine, to be a part of Ukrainian nation, to be formed as a patriot for the whole ethnic homeland.
