The game is addressed to speech therapists, teachers, responsible and attentive parents who want to help their children activate sounds that have just appeared or have been introduced by a speech therapist. The problem with children who have learned to speak a complex sound is that they can only pronounce it in some words. Many parents complain to the speech therapist: Here he speaks correctly, but at home he speaks incorrectly. The manual is intended specifically to help the child, in a playful way, unobtrusively and with interest, master correct pronunciation sounds. As in regular walkers, players roll the dice and move their piece forward by the number of pictures rolled. The move is counted if the player phonetically names the dropped word correctly. To enhance the play situation and attract the attention of children and develop their phonetic hearing, an adult can use a provoking technique and pronounce the word incorrectly (not spoons, but ozhki or horns). You will see the child's eyes widen in surprise. Ref

The Crimean peninsula, the legendary Tauris, the center of world cultures and religions, has been the scene of countless wars throughout its many-thousand-year history. This blooming land, about which A.S. Pushkin wrote: “The land of the midday magical lands", attracted endless hordes of conquerors. Whoever wanted to control this God-chosen corner - Greeks and Romans, Goths and Huns, Khazars and warriors of the Golden Horde, Crimean khans and Turks. And even after it was signed in 1783 by Empress Catherine II Manifesto on the annexation of Crimea to Russian Empire, it took two more s more than a century so that the fate of the peninsula is finally determined.
IN military history Crimea is forever inscribed in Russia as a symbol of the unfading military glory, heroic and tragic military past. Every meter of Crimean land is watered with the blood of our soldiers who died during the Russian-Turkish, Crimean, Civil and Great Patriotic Wars.
In this book, written by a highly professional team of Russian historians - candidates and doctors historical sciences, traces the entire history of the Crimean peninsula from ancient times to the present day, the first in new Russia truly scientific and objective "History of Crimea".

Teaching a child to sight read correctly is one of the most important tasks of a pianist teacher. The ability to easily parse a musical text greatly helps a child during his studies: it significantly expands his repertoire, accustoms him to independent work, and most importantly, makes the learning process easier, more enjoyable and interesting. But the skill of reading musical notation correctly does not come from nowhere and does not appear on its own. It needs to be developed painstakingly and patiently, starting from the very first steps of the little pianist. Despite the fact that many outstanding music teachers have dealt with the problem of reading notes from sight and there is numerous literature on this topic, in this issue A unified and clear methodology has not yet been developed. This textbook is another attempt to systematize the process of learning to sight read, based on a theoretical understanding of the musical text. Each piece in the collection is a unique musical illustration of a certain theoretical position or rule, which simultaneously takes into account the peculiarities of piano fingering, performing techniques and technical tasks.

What instruments did ancient people play?
The most ancient people did not have musical instruments. Music began with singing, and the first instrument was the human voice. Then self-sounding instruments appeared - various beaters, rattles and other percussion and noise instruments.

Another group of ancient instruments included wind instruments: buzzers, whistles, reed flutes. Even hollow animal bones became musical instruments. Thus, in excavations of a settlement of people of the ancient Stone Age, they found a whistle made from a deer joint, a bone pipe, and a flute made from swan bone. Then people learned to make pipes with side holes and multi-barreled flutes to produce sounds of different heights. Pipes were made from wood, horn or shell.

    Explanatory note

    Methodology for conducting lessons in musical literature using pieces from “Children’s Album” by P.I. Tchaikovsky.

1). Thematic plan

2). Lesson plans

    Conclusion.

    Applications.

Among musical theoretical disciplines, the most controversial and often modified course is the course of musical literature. The abundance of new textbooks, new authors and methods sometimes not only does not help in the work, but, on the contrary, creates chaos in the system of teaching the subject.

The democratization of our society, surprisingly, has broken the thematic plan of the courseIyears of study. Let me remind you that it consisted of the following topics:

1. Songs Soviet composers

    Songs about the Motherland, about Lenin, about the party

    Songs of the pre-war and war years

    Songs in the struggle for peace and friendship of peoples

    Songs about modern life Soviet people

2. Revolutionary songs

    Revolutionary songsXIX century

    Proletarian fighting songs

and

    Songs - marches

    Dances of the peoples of the USSR

In total, 8 hours marked in red needed to be replaced with something, and very quickly. And this is where new techniques and “textbooks” began to appear in large numbers.

Lisyanskaya E.B.’s method, based on the genre method of studying musical literature, undoubtedly seemed the best in those years, in any case, very interesting, especially to teachers tired of the “political” load of the subject. Many teachers are happy and very successful in working on this program even now. It was very difficult at first. First of all, there were no textbooks for children or teaching aids for teachers. For each lesson I had to work through a large number of sources, write notes for yourself and for children.

The greatest difficulty was the colossal shortage of musical illustrations. Eternal searches, recordings, re-recordings, orders, etc. Now, with the help of the Internet, the possibilities of illustration have greatly expanded.

But this program also ceased to satisfy me. As a teacher with 30 years of experience, I want to say that this course quite complicated and overloaded for students, and also inconvenient due to the lack of textbooks for all 4 years. In any case, I have never come across them for sale. In addition, the composer as a person, a person, was “lost” in Lisyanskaya’s program. The composer’s biography is studied independently, his work is “scattered” across genres and years of study, and by the end of the entire course it still does not fit into a coherent form.

In connection with the above, I came to the conclusion that the monographic type of presentation of a course in musical literature would still be more convenient and acceptable, and textbooks are still published in the same form.

However, it is no longer possible to return to the “old”, and the presentation of the material must be in a different context.

The first year course, or rather the first part of it, dissatisfied me most of all. Such basic material as “Children’s Album” by P.I. Tchaikovsky has practically disappeared from Lisyanskaya’s course of musical literature, and even from the repertoire in the specialty. This is largely due to the emergence of a huge amount of instrumental literature by new authors, which is certainly very interesting, as well as the penetration of jazz style and modern arrangements into children's performance. In pursuit of “fresh, new, interesting and unusual,” teachers have pushed the repertoire of classics so far that children are no longer able, and do not want, to “tinker” with the numerous strokes of serious works. This is the big picture. Of course, they play the classics, but so little that it is almost impossible to get an idea of ​​Tchaikovsky’s “Children’s Album” or, say, Schumann’s “Album for Youth” from the “piece” performances.

It seems that the subject of musical literature could fill this niche, thereby solving the following problems:

1.Introduce children to P.I. Tchaikovsky’s “Children’s Album” cycle

2. Based on the available material from the plays of the cycle, reveal the themes

    Elements of musical speech

Introduction. Music in human life.

Music in our lives... It greets a person from the first minutes of life with a mother’s affectionate lullaby and guides him through life ringing melodies children's songs, tender love stories of youth, Mendelssohn's wedding march, further by interests:

    chanson

    pop music

    classic

    jazz, etc.,

and as a result of his whole life - the funeral march of F. Chopin. The scheme is simple and clear. However, inside it everything is not so simple and even completely different.

P.I. Tchaikovsky created his own idea of musical life other half's childXIXcentury in the piano cycle “Children's Album”. The composer dedicated this composition to his beloved nephew Volodya Davydov. The world of children's games, fun, and quarrels was well known to Tchaikovsky, since he often and for a long time lived in his sister's house in the Ukraine, in the village of Kamenka, and enjoyed communicating with his nephews. The repertoire for children's home music playing was extremely scarce and Pyotr Ilyich decided to “make whole line small passages of unconditional ease and with titles tempting for children.” This is how a cycle arose, consisting of 24 plays, as if “24 hours in the life of a little man.”

The day begins with morning prayer, then playing snowballs outside and playing horses in the spacious rooms of the house. Mom's affectionate voice, and again playing soldiers. The girls have their own worries, their dolls get sick and die “for real.” Games are replaced by dancing, because the ability to dance was considered a sign good upbringing. And outside the window you can hear Russian folk song and dance, and the incomprehensible playing of an accordion player. The geography lesson is dedicated to traveling through European countries: Italy, France, Germany. And in the evening, the children are treated to Nanny's tales of miracles and Baba Yaga.

Before going to bed, I dream pleasantly, my thoughts glide smoothly, and I dream of spring, the warm sun and the ringing trills of a lark; for some reason I remembered Italy, along the streets of which organ grinders walk and sing.

The day ends. In the last piece of the cycle, the chorale sounds again, which contributes to the compositional harmony and completeness of the “Children's Album”.

This can be told in words, but music tells stories in its own language, stronger and more expressive. How to understand musical language? How is it different from speech?

The musical language is rich and varied, because its vocabulary contains not just sounds, but melody, mode, rhythm, harmony, timbre, dynamics, tempo, strokes, phrasing... All these elements musical language Composers use them in all possible combinations when creating music.

LESSON 1. Elements of musical speech. Melody. Musical form. Period. Simple two-part form. Cantilena.

Every person retains many pieces of music in their memory. If you try to remember them, you will probably hum the melody or tune.

Motive is an expressive piece of melody. A motive can evoke ideas about the entire melody and its character.

Melody - a developed and complete musical thought, expressed monophonically.

The life of a melody is like the life of a flower. A flower is born from a bud, blooms and finally fades. In a short time, the melody manages to emerge from the motive, “bloom” and end. Every melody has a "blooming point" highest point its development, the highest intensity of feelings. It is calledclimax. The melody endscadence – stable turnover.

The structure of a melody is similar to the structure of speech. Just as phrases are formed from words, and sentences are formed from phrases, so in melody small expressive particles - motives - are combined into phrases. A musical phrase, as a rule, is formed from two to three motives. Several related phrases common line development, formoffers , and sentences - a complete melody.

Let's look at the structure of the melody using the example of “Sweet Dream” (example 1).

A beautiful, melodious melody of a dreamy nature develops in small phrases - “waves” and gradually “blooms”. The melodious melody of wide breathing and long unfolding is calledcantilena, which means "singing" in Italian. Each phrase of the melody contains two expressive motives. Overall, the melody has the form of a classical period, consisting of two sentences.

Thus, period – this is a small structure in which a complete musical thought is expressed.

motive motive

1 phrase 2 phrase 3 phrase 4 phrase

1st OFFER period

phrase phrase phrase phrase

2nd SENTENCE

A period is part of the construction of a piece of music called a musical form.

Tchaikovsky's piano cycle begins and ends with pieces of spiritual content.

1 “Morning Prayer” - the play seems to set the child up for good thoughts and actions. “Lord, make sure that mother and father, sister and brothers, and also aunts, nanny and everyone else are alive, healthy and happy” - a prayer that the kind governess Fanny Durbach taught Pyotr Ilyich as a child.

The melody sounds light and calm in the key of G major. Here one musical idea is developed, so the composer chooses the simplest musical form - a period, which consists of two sentences. In the first sentence, the musical idea remains unsaid, ending with an unstable cadence on the dominant. In the second sentence, the musical thought, developing, comes to a climax and ends with a cadence on the tonic and therefore sounds stable (example No. 2).

The sentences are the same in size: each contains 8 bars. They form classical period re-building. But the play did not end. The period is supplemented by a large coda.

Code - this is a construction that completes a musical work and gives it completeness and completeness.

In the coda, complete calm comes, this is achieved by the long and measured sound of the tonic in the bass, the repetition of the “farewell” cadence. And only when the last transparent-light sounds of the coda fade into silence, one gets the feeling that the work is finished - the form is complete.

24 “In the church” - the sound is reminiscent of the singing of a church choir.

An important element expressiveness here is the mode. From music theory lessons we already know thatokay means the consistency of sounds of different pitches, which unite around the main sound - the tonic. The most common modes in European music are major and minor.

In the final piece, E minor creates a feeling of evening and sounds like a response to the “morning” G major of the first piece (example 3).

The form of the play is a period of a single structure:

    a period consisting of 12 measures is divided only into phrases that continue one another

    repeat period

    addition

    a large coda, sounding on an ostinato bass and completing not only the piece, but the entire collection.

This is the “farewell word” of the “Children’s Album”.

Period like component more complex forms - two-part and three-part - are used in most of the pieces of the "Children's Album".

LESSON 2. Harmony. Rhythm. Texture. March genre. Simple three-part form. Recitative.

One of the most important expressive means of music isharmony . It is based on the combination of sounds into consonances and the relationship of these consonances with each other in a sequential movement. Harmony often refers to the chord accompaniment of a melody. Harmony from Greek means harmony and proportionality.

The plays of the “Children's Album” can be conditionally grouped into groups according to thematic content.

"A Puppet Story" is presented in three plays, reflecting the complex and serious attitude to the life of a little person.

"Doll's Disease" The play does not have a continuous melodic line. It is as if “broken” by pauses, each sound of the melody resembles a sigh: “Oh... ah...” (example 4).

Harmony dominates here and determines the character and mood of the play. The form of the play is one-part, consisting of two periods with a coda. The doll's "suffering" reaches its climax in the second period, which contains a tense climax. The coda is long and soporific.

Rhythm – a Greek word meaning proportionality. This is a natural alternation of sounds of different durations in music. Without rhythm, a piece of music cannot exist. Rhythm has great expressive power, and the character of the work depends on it.

"Doll's funeral"The mood of sadness in this play is created using the funeral march genre. Here its features clearly emerged - the tempo of a slow step, dotted rhythm, chord texture, recitative melody, minor mode. (example 5)

Recitative –this is the genus vocal music, approaching natural human speech.

Pace – speed of movement.

Texture – way of presentation musical material: melody, chords, figurations, echoes, etc.Form plays simple tripartite , consists of equal periods of 16 clock cycles (ABA). The extreme parts are the same; these are periods of repeated construction. middle part sounds with a dynamic increase, which is associated with the expression of increasing grief. At the moment of climax, a sharp intonation of despair - a tritone - invades the melody. This is the most unchildish miniature in the Children's Album.

Genre (French) - means a type, type of any art. Music intended for singing, walking, games, rituals, military campaigns, and ceremonies belongs to such simple genres as song, dance, and march.

"New doll."The play sounds like a fast dance, conveying different shades of joyful feeling: amazement, delight. The melody consists of small motifs merging into one wave. The form of the play is simple three-part.

“Oh, these boys.” Two plays in the cycle are dedicated to boys.

"Horse Game" - lively, figurative, sunny scherzo (Italian “joke”), cheerfully boyish, with a stubborn ostinato rhythm (ostinato- a repeatedly repeated melodic or rhythmic turn). This is the tempo of a small toccata, which is characterized by a fast tempo and ease of execution.

"March of the Wooden Soldiers" . The main means of expression in this play is, of course, rhythm. The dotted rhythm and eighth pauses that constantly interrupt the melody give the music a light, toy-like quality. The rhythm of eighth notes and two sixteenth notes imitates the sound of a trumpet. The form of the play is simple three-part. The middle of the piece sounds secretive and even a little threatening.

It can be assumed that between the game of horses and the performance of the wooden soldiers, some troubles occurred among the players, and Tchaikovsky evokes a tender, reconciling image of his mother.

"Mother". There is a note from the author about the play: “with great feeling and tenderness: The melody is melodious, affectionate, bright; subvocal texture with melodic lower voice.

LESSON 3. Song genre. Complex two-part form. Variations. Homophonic and polyphonic texture.

The next suite can be called “Travel through Countries.” It is formed by songs No. 15 – 18 and No. 23. You can feel the rhythmic liveliness of Italian melodies, the wise sadness of an old French tune, and the sedate regularity of German dance. And yet Tchaikovsky gives preference to Italian “songs”. There are three of them in the “Children's Album”. This is no coincidence. The plays reflected the composer's fresh musical impressions received in Italy.

"Neapolitan Song"- one of the most striking plays in the “Children's Album”. This is an authentic Italian melody. Living in one of the hotels in Naples, Pyotr Ilyich often listened to the playing of traveling artists playing music under his balcony. The composer liked the theme so much that he used it twice - first in “Swan Lake” in 1876, and two years later in “Children’s Album”. The composer calls it a dance in the ballet and a song in the “Children's Album” - and there is no contradiction in this. It combined both song and dance.

“The Neapolitan Song” has two parts – the chorus and the chorus. The chorus has a simple two-part form. The chorus sounds like a song (example 6a), and the chorus is dominated by the elements of rapid dance (example 6b). A picture of a cheerful Italian carnival. Form of the whole piececomplex two-part. The elastic and clear rhythm of the accompaniment gives the work special expressiveness.

"Italian song"has the same structure - chorus and chorus. It is also based on an authentic street song. The melody, mobile and graceful in the first part, is sung more cantilian (drawn out) in the second. The texture of the presentation is homophonic (homophonic-harmonic structure), where the solo voice (melody) and accompaniment (accompaniment) are combined.

The melody sung by an Italian girl became a play« The organ grinder sings" . Light melody flows calmly, leisurely, accompanied by waltz accompaniment. The form of the play is simple two-part.

“Italian”, “German”, “The Organ Grinder Sings” and partly “An Old French Song” are reminiscent of the sound of an organ grinder. Tchaikovsky associated vivid childhood impressions with the mechanical sound of this instrument (tell).

Music "Old French Song" imbued with sincerity and sadness, like a heart’s memory of the distant past. The composer used an authentic tune hereXVIcentury - “Where have you gone, the hobbies of my youth”... A simple and leisurely tune is akin to an ancient ballad. The spare harmonies and restrained minor tone of the narrative are reminiscent of paintings by the old masters.

The play is written in a simple two-part reprise form. At the beginning and at the end of the play, a three-voice presentation of a polyphonic structure (polyphonic texture) is maintained: the melody sounds against the background of a sustained tonic bass, the middle voice echoes the melody, forming consonances with it. (example 7)

At the beginning of the second part, the melody is enlivened, the texture changes: instead of polyphonic it becomes homophonic. In the reprise, the same narrative melody is heard again. Discreet and noble simplicity, the aroma of antiquity made this play a masterpiece of the “Children's Album”.

"German Song"- cheerful, with a bouncing melody. It is based on the intonations of a Tyrolean song, and the rhythm is reminiscent of the ancient Ländler peasant dance, popular in Germany and Austria. In the harmony, the monotony of which resembles the sound of a barrel organ, only the tonic triad and dominant seventh chord are used. The form of the play is simple three-part, the rhythm is dotted, the texture is homophonic.Song - a genre of vocal music. Here the song is presented as an instrumental piece, which is based on the song's theme.

The “Russian Page” of the album is represented by three plays: “Russian Song”, “A Man Plays a Harmonica”, “Kamarinskaya”. They make up another small suite (suite - sequence (French)).

In Russia in the 60s and 70sXIXcentury, during the period of the rise of national culture, attention to folk music increased. New treatments have appeared folk songs, made by Balakirev, Prokunin, Rimsky-Korsakov. In those same years, Tchaikovsky created piano arrangements for four hands of 50 Russian folk songs. Tchaikovsky identified the most important features of Russian folk songs:

    variability of the mode of Russian songs (“indefinite key”)

    clarity of the rhythm of dance songs.

In the “Russian Suite” from the “Children's Album” the bright national coloring attracts attention. The plays use the same development technique - variation, characteristic of folk performance. This technique, however, manifests itself differently in all three plays.

Variations musical form, consisting of a theme and its modified repetitions (variations).

A A 1 A 2 A 3

subject variations

In each variation the theme appears in a new light, its new sides are revealed; this allows you to reveal the moods inherent in the topic in a multifaceted way.

"Russian song" - master processing folk song“Are you a head, my little head?” She recreates the powerful four-voice sound of a male choir, full of youthful strength and luck. The melody is laconic (6 bars). Phrases end either in major or in minor. That's what it ismodal variability , which Tchaikovsky noted as a characteristic feature of Russian folk song (example 8).

The author gives three options for processing the topic. At the same time, the bass line develops independently and becomes as expressive as the melody of the upper voice. In other voices, small independent motives and phrases sometimes appear - they are called sub-voices. The number of votes changes freely: there are four, then three, then two, then four again. Similar free use voices is typical of Russian choral song. This style of presentation of musical material is calledsubvocal polyphony. In the “Russian Song,” the treatment of the theme can be likened to a tree, where the constant theme is the trunk, and the variations are the branches of this tree. The melody consists of short motifs; they flow so smoothly into one another, flowing so continuously, like a girl’s round dance moving in a circle.

"A man plays a harmonica" - a funny sketch from life, a kind of small scene. The sound of the piano is reminiscent of playing the harmonica: the piece plays on a dominant seventh chord - it is repeated 30 times! The single chanted phrase never became a “real”, developed melody. Multiple varied repetitions of this phrase create a comical impression: the hero seems puzzled by the unusual sound of his harmonica and is clearly unable to play anything else. The phrase, not completed, fades away in mid-sentence.

"Kamarinskaya". This famous tune of Russian dance was used by Glinka in his brilliant orchestral fantasy back in 1848. Here, in the “Children’s Album,” the dance song appeared as a modest piano miniature. Developing the traditions of Glinka, Tchaikovsky gives in it a vivid example of instrumental variations. The art of variation—patterned coloring of a theme—comes to the fore.

The composer varies the texture and changes the melody itself. The playful, scherziose theme is followed by three variations. The first and third variations, light, mobile, retaining the touchstaccato. In the second variation, a dashing, brave dance sounds. The theme is presented in dense chords, but even at the same time a familiar dance tune can be heard in the upper voice (example 9).

LESSON 4. Dance forms. Programmatic visual music. Complex three-part form. Register.

Just like song and march, dance belongs to simple genres. IN in the narrow sense The words dance refer to the light music that accompanies everyday and ballroom dancing. Of all the genres and spheres of musical art, dance music is most closely connected with everyday life, and therefore it is most sensitive to the trends of time and fashion.

In the second halfXIXcenturies in Russia the most fashionable and popular dances were considered: waltz, mazurka, polka, polonaise, krakowiak and others. Tchaikovsky included three of them in his album.

"Waltz".The name supposedly comes from the German word - roll out. The waltz is danced by smoothly twirling couples: its tempo varies from slow to very fast. The meter is three-beat, the accompaniment is characterized by a supporting accent in the bass on the strong beat and two light chords.

Among ballroom dances, the waltz stands out for its lyrical mood and romantic flight.

“Waltz” from the “Children's Album” recreates the atmosphere of a home holiday, therefore it is written in the traditions of home music-making - with a simple melodious melody and a characteristic waltz accompaniment. The melodic phrases are small, smooth, they are sung as if by chance, interrupted by pauses. Starting in a bright E - flat major, the melody gradually goes into the “shadow”, modulating into G minor, forming a form with a modulating period. This is followed by the second period, where the key of E - flat major returns. Mischievous, sweeping leaps appear in the melody, the music sounds cheerful, “with various madness and schoolboyism” (example 10).

Thus, a simple two-part form was formed from the two periods.

In the middle part of the waltz, the character of the music changes, the melody moves to C minor, insistent fifths sound in the accompaniment, and the melodic line takes on a broken two-beat pattern.

But the episode flashed by and the waltz began again. The waltz form is a complex three-part one.

A B A

Mazurka – Polish folk dance, has a three-beat size, a sharp and clear rhythm, a characteristic rhythmic figure of an eighth with a dot and a sixteenth, the tempo ranges from moderate to very fast. The mazurka combines light grace, brilliant prowess, and dreaminess. Spectacular tapping of heels in dotted rhythmic figures is also characteristic.

"Mazurka" Tchaikovsky is written in the classical tradition of this dance. The character of the melody is somewhat melancholic at the beginning, but in the middle part it becomes active and persistent. This is expressed, first of all, in the variety of rhythmic figures: a dotted rhythm, dissected by a pause, sounds even more sharp and even a little flirtatious, triplets, accents on the last beat. The dance form is simple three-part. (example 11)

"Polka" - Czech folk dance, from the middleXIXcentury has acquired the significance of popular ballroom dance. The size of the dance is bipartite. The polka is danced in pairs in a circle, cheerfully and at ease.

In Tchaikovsky's cycle "Polka" is a witty, elegant piece written in the key of B - flat major. In the lower voice there is the usual accompaniment for dance: bass - chord. Theme is being performedstaccato, she is very perky and sharp. During the second conduction, the voices change places: the theme is heard in the lower voice, and the accompaniment in the upper voice. The form is three-part, after a crescendo in the middle part, the reprise is played on the piano.

The remaining four plays from the "Children's Album" can be declared as: "Bedtime Story" and "Russian Landscape". Of course, they also belong to the typeprogrammatic - fine music, which has a name (like all the pieces on the album), and also “depicts” by imitation:

    movements of people, animals, birds

    reveals their character

    depicts space

Among other means of musical expressiveness in programmatic visual music, register is important.

Register- part of the musical scale, distinguished between upper, middle and lower registers.

"Nanny's Tale" . Cautiously prickly sonority (strokestaccato), with sharp harmony the composer creates a fabulous image. In quiet tunes one can hear the mysterious “knock-knock-knock...knock-knock-knock” (example 12). Music filled with sensitive pauses and unexpected accents sounds wary.

The development technique used here—the sequence—intensifies the mood of anxiety, leading to screams” (jump to a diminished seventh). In the middle of the simple three-part form, the music is truly scary. The upper voice “freezes in fear” at one sound, and from the gloomy low register a chromatic sequence “crawls out” like a ghost. The motives from which this “terrible” sequence is woven are the same as in the extreme parts (“knock-knock-knock”). The reprise exactly repeats the music of the first movement. And only the light key of C major seems to remind us that this fairy tale is a musical joke.

"Baba Yaga". The play also carries figurative character. It is written at a very fast pace (presto) and seems to imitate the flight of Baba Yaga. Staccato eighth notes, coupled with erratic chords, permeate the entire piece. Fast and smooth, they melodically fly up and then fall down.

This play, like “Nanny's Tale,” is written in three-part form, but the contrast of the middle is almost unnoticeable here due to the continuous movement. The culmination of the piece is the beginning of the reprise, sounding an octave higher than the first part. The “screams” of Baba Yaga sound sharper, as if flying overhead and rapidly moving away. The impression of “removal” is created due to the gradual transition to the low register and attenuation of the dynamics. Flew away...

"Winter morning" - like a picture from the window of a provincial house onto the street - life will awaken. Short intermittent motives and restless intonations create the image of prickly drifting snow, the morning seems gloomy and inhospitable (example 13). The play is written in a simple three-part form. The dotted rhythm, frequent accents, and chord texture give the music an excited, assertive character.

The extreme parts are contrasted by the middle, where pleading, plaintive intonations appear.

Similar in plot to this play"The Lark's Song" of a completely different nature. Light, clear music, as if ringing in the azure, conveys the feeling of awakening spring nature. Calm, even chords sound in the lower voice, and a whimsical melody in the upper voice, imitating real birdsong. It is rhythmically that this theme is very refined. There are a lot of triplets and grace notes in it. The sound of the melody in the upper register creates a feeling of transparent bottomless height and spiritual serenity. The form of the play is also simple three-part.

In conclusion, I would like to note that “Children’s Album” is not just an alternation short plays– sketches from life or simple dances. These are beauty lessons in the eternal school of beauty, of which anyone can become a student. "Children's Album" opens the gates to the world great art, becoming the first step on the path to Swan Lake and Eugene Onegin, to the Queen of Spades and the Pathetique Symphony. In a word, to Tchaikovsky.

As a test of students' knowledge, it is recommended to use a frontal survey of students on the topic and terms covered at each lesson.

It is advisable to make the fifth lesson a test using various shapes testing students' knowledge:

    individual survey

    frontal survey

    small tests

    music quiz

    essay (for advanced groups) on the topic “My favorite piece from the “Children’s Album” by P.I. Tchaikovsky.”

Thus, having distributed the topicsI quarters:

    elements of musical speech

    musical forms

    main genres: song, dance, march

    programmatic - visual music (first acquaintance)

you can completely fit into 4 - 5 lessons, freeing up hours to expand the topic “Musical timbres,” which also requires a new interpretation.
