The basic approaches to the formation of the heuristic thinking of the undergraduate students in choral conducting: personal, hermeneutic, algorithmic, creative, acmeological, reflexive-activity. The results of the diagnostic stage of experimental work are presented. The basic directions of further research of the stated scientific problem are highlighted
