Foreign language and music education status in a non-linguistic university system

This paper is aimed at providing theoretical grounding of “Foreign language” status as an academic discipline in the range of other subjects studied at a non-linguistic university. Research shows that high requirements are set to supplementary subjects, such as accompaniment and foreign language which have their individual status as well as semantic and dynamic characteristic features. Beneficial interaction of the soloist and accompanist plays a mutually enriching role giving an insight into the piece of music both for the musician and the audience. The humanitarian component introduced into the educational process through language studies complements and enriches the whole process and provides it with semantic fullness. Analysis of the dialectical parallels (principal subject – supplementary subject, principal voice – accompaniment) proved that each of their components has its own status.
