Shamanistic music is a valuable musical and cultural heritage that boasts excellent artistry and techniques in musicology. Nevertheless, it is true that the educational utility of shamanic music was not properly illuminated due to religious prejudice against shamanism. Accordingly, this paper aims to organize three topics: establishing the educational utility and goal of shamanic music, designing educational programs according to the hierarchy of shamanic music, and developing teaching methods containing the identity of shamanic music. The results of the study are summarized as follows. First, shamanic music is actually music accompanied by shamanism, music that contributes to social integration and communication of the community, music with a wide emotional range, various purposes and uses, and music with excellent artistic techniques and performance skills. Second, the design of educational programs according to the hierarchy of shamanic music should be considered in combination with the type of music or rhythm, the difficulty of each musical element, and the difficulty of each performance level. In addition, since the program design should be determined in consideration of the learner’s level and situation, there is no single answer, but it will be planned in detail in consideration of the difficulty of various levels. Third, as a teaching method containing the identity of shamanic music, the design and evaluation of teaching and learning guidance plans, and as a teaching method containing the characteristics of shamanic music, the method of cultivating variation ability, ensemble ability, and improvisation ability were proposed. If textbooks are developed and applied based on the contents proposed above, it will be sufficient as a foundation for public education of shamanic music. In addition, it is expected that this type of educational program construction plan can be applied to various Korean music branches that have been passed on.
