One of the outstanding guitarists of the last century once compared musical instruments to islands in the ocean of music. He considered the guitar his island. I will be happy if our meeting today helps you not only to navigate well in this sea and islands, but also to find your island in the ocean of sounds.

And now I will ask you to split into two teams: the team of “experts No. 1” and the “team of experts No. 2” and take their places at the gaming tables.

(Musical intro: “What is our life?.. A game!”)

Teacher: Dear teams, envelopes with questions are laid out on the playing field. We need to answer everything with you. For a correct answer, the team receives 1 point. Questions will be asked to teams in turn. If one team does not answer a question, the other team is given the right to answer the same question. Let's play until 6 points. At the end of the game we will see who has the most points and see which team of Experts knows more.

So, let's start the game!

(A gong is heard, which will sound before each round in the future. The team captain spins the top and selects one of the envelopes).

    The group of string instruments includes: violin, cello, harp, viola.

    In the family of woodwind instruments, the lowest sounding one is the contrabassoon.

    Brass instruments include: trumpet, horn, tuba, trombone.

    A drum is a percussion instrument with a certain pitch of sound.

    Woodwinds include: flute, oboe, horn, clarinet.

Round 6.

Teacher : Look for errors in the placement of tools. (cards are handed out)

Round 7.

Teacher : Dear experts, take a look at the screen. Here is an image of a hunting horn. It was blown as a signal during a hunt, army gathering, or some special event. In order for the sound to be heard over a long distance, the hunting horn had a huge length, sometimes 6-8 meters. It was extremely inconvenient to blow it.

Attention, question: What solution did the musicians find, and what was the name of the new musical instrument?

Answer: A long hunting horn was twisted to form a French horn. (Image of a French horn appears)

Round 8.

Teacher : In one minute you need to unravel musical instruments based on the following characteristics:

    Shipkovo-strings, epics, folk, ringing... (harp)

    Three-string, triangular, Russian, dance, Osipov... (balalaika)

    Three-string, pear-shaped, buffoons, Andreev... (domra)

    wooden, gaming, Russian... (spoons)

To which family can all these instruments be classified?

Round 9.

Teacher : Attention to the screen. Dear experts, in 1 minute you must name the instrument shown on the screen, tell what material it is made of and how it is played.

Answer: This is bagpipes. The air reservoir (fur, bag) is made of goatskin or calfskin, sometimes from an animal's bladder. Several tubes are inserted into it. Through one, air is pumped into the bag and it inflates like a balloon. Other tubes play sounds that accompany the melody. The sounds go on continuously, because... The piper holds the instrument under his arm and presses his elbow towards him.

Round 10.

Teacher : Not all tools were easy for manufacturers, some were constantly improved, and some were completely forgotten for some time.

Attention question: Which instrument and why, after some time, was restored by Andreev?

Answer: domra, was burned, later restored by Andreev.

Round 11. “Black Box”!

Teacher : Attention! " black box"! (The “black box” is brought in to the music)

Dear experts, in the black box there are instruments, or rather their images, which you need to guess by sound.

After hearing the fragment, name the instrument and describe its structure.

(sound of oboe, flute, harpsichord, horn, celesta, balalaika)

Round 12.

Teacher : Look at the screen. This musical instrument has existed for more than 2000 years. He alone can replace the choral and instrumental chapel. It is played with hands and even feet on special keyboards. In the hands of one performer it is a whole brass band.

Attention, question: One of the journalists wrote about the organ that it is “wise, secretive and lonely.” Explain what he meant?

Answer: The organ is “wise” because it has absorbed the culture of millennia; “lonely” because it is the only keyboard-wind instrument; “hidden” because it cannot be seen in its entirety (we can only see its façade).

Teacher : So, let's summarize our game. Let's find the best team. Who was the best expert on the team? (grading). Our lesson has come to an end.

I hope you enjoyed it, because the game was not only informational, but also creative. I hope that the knowledge gained in this game will continue in your life. Thank you all for your participation. See you!
