Studies of musical education are interdisciplinary, and therefore research studies are being conducted at the point of intersection of two fields of science (arts and education science) and also branches of science within these fields. Therefore in this paper, a critical analysis of references enabled to state that activities (including training and professional development) of the teachers of music in Lithuania are taking place at the point of intersection of mega, mezo and micro dimensions. At the micro dimensional level, the changing expectations of the students and colleagues as well as their relatives become evident. The challenges within this dimension can be affected by the individual. Dimensions of activities of the teachers of music (including training and professional development) are interrelated and complementing each other. It has been revealed in the empirical survey that lessons of music are being positively evaluated by school pupils. Interview data showed that respondents (students – prospective teachers of music) have suggestions for improving study programs: e.g., to balance better professional arts performance and pedagogical competence. Conclusions also note a negative tendency identified in the study: only less than one third of the respondents (school pupils) indicated that music classes help develop social and team work skills and contribute to development of active citizenship, therefore this aspect should be given a special attention in education of teachers of music
