Scientific novelty. In the article I first look at the forms of interaction between the conductor and research areas of Mykhailo Antkiv on the material of the "Kavkaz" of Stanislav Lyudkevych. Conclusions. The S. Ludkevich’s symphony-cantata "Kavkaz" was studied, the important dramatic tasks of the composer, revealed by the proximity of the natural sensation of music by T. Shevchenko, were thoroughly illustrated by S. Lyudkevych in his work. This angle is definitely complemented by conducting observations due to musical-theoretical analysis. Thus M.

This creates a solid foundation for the development and continuity of the best traditions of European conducting performances.
