The article actualizes the problem of formation of culture of intercultural communication in the conditions of constant growth of migration of people within the country and in the world as a whole as a condition of survival in a modern multicultural and multinational society. The views and positions of Russian scientists on the formation of a culture of interethnic communication of the younger generations are shown, the importance of nurturing a culture of feelings, conscience, ethnic self-awareness and multicultural education in our multinational country is indicated. The educational potential of music in the formation of a culture of intercultural communication among schoolchildren is noted. Music expresses the composer’s thoughts and feelings in sound forms and serves as a means of communication between people separated in time and space. The priority significance of music in the modern adult and youth community is noted, which is important to use in the educational process for creative influence on the formation of a culture of intercultural communication. The solution to this problem is shown using the example of the implementation of the regional component of general and professional music education in the Republic of Khakassia, where the expansion of ideas about the history, customs, traditions and specifics of the musical art of the Khakass people is of particular importance. Local study of materials, being integrated into the federal program on music, does not violate its thematic structure. Specific examples of the methodology for implementing regional musical material and a qualitative description of student research are given, which to date demonstrate positive results in the formation of a culture of intercultural communication – mutual understanding and peacefulness in interethnic relations in the student and school environment.
