the article presents the results of an experimental study conducted on the basis of the Music Faculty of the Institute of Arts of Hubei Polytechnic University (PRC) in the period 2020-2023 as part of the optional violin course for piano and vocal students and aimed at identifying the practical effectiveness of Lin Yaoji's violin teaching methods. 30 students of the music faculty took part in the experiment: 10 pianists and 20 vocalists. The author of the article revealed the degree of prevalence of the method of an outstanding Chinese teacher in music educational institutions in China; developed and applied a diagnostic complex to identify the levels of readiness of students to master the violin, summarized his own empirical experience, refracted through the prism of advanced achievements in the field of violin pedagogy, created a work program for training participants in an experimental study and proved the expediency and effectiveness of using the technique of Lin Yaoji in the course of conducting experimental work with students. The study showed that participants in both groups (experimental and control) improved their level of training, although many of them were learning the violin for the first time. At the same time, all participants in the experimental group significantly improved their violin performance, while more than half of the control group did not, which indicates that Lin Yaoji 's technique is more effective.
