This study uses an empirical method based on the International Federation of Phonographic Industries' annual reports detailing the trends of world-wide recorded music and it's segments. It also utilizes other academic papers and industry reports, which provide a comprehensive look at the music industries transition into being a digitally driven industry. The study analyzes the potential of digital transformation of music education and proves that the introduction of innovative teaching tools and methods contributes to the expansion of the conceptual vision of educational functionality, increasing its transparency, efficiency and adaptability. The key capabilities of digital technologies to increase the involvement and motivation of students, their creative growth, as well as to create an inclusive and dynamic educational environment, and to create the preconditions for effective exchange of experience on a global musical scale are considered.
