on the topic of:

"WALTZ - DANCE THROUGH THE CENTURIES"
Before our concert begins, please tell me what you like about the art of dance?

What do you think it means to touch beauty?

Here's what one person said about this: “I picked a flower and it withered. I caught a moth and it died in my palm. And then I realized that you can only touch beauty with your heart.”

Yes, you need to be able to not only see and feel beauty. Beauty must also be protected! This is the hardest part. To capture beauty in the soul, to remember it, to always carry it in the heart - maybe this is the highest manifestation of human culture?

So, we dedicate our meeting today to beauty, the beauty of dance - the most exciting, most sublime and beautiful of all arts, since dance is not just a reflection of life, dance is life itself!

Dance is an ancient wanderer. He came to us from hoary antiquity... In my opinion, he is the same age as Homo sapiens. Everyone knows that work has shaped man, and I’ll add – also dance! It reflects, dating back to the earliest times, the need of a person to convey his joy or sorrow to other people through the movements of his body.

Archaeologists in different parts of the world have discovered cave paintings depicting dancing men. Almost all important events in the life of primitive man were celebrated with dances: birth, death, war, election of a new leader, healing of the sick. The dance expressed prayers for rain, sunlight, fertility, protection and forgiveness. We cannot say for sure what kind of musical accompaniment our ancestors danced to. Perhaps at first these were chaotic, disorganized sounds, imitation of birdsong, the howling of animals, the rustling of leaves, etc. Then the simplest melodies and tunes appeared, consisting of several tones. They were performed on a variety of pipes, shells and wooden whistles. Many peoples of Africa still play the instruments of our distant ancestors. And their music retained to some extent the features of primitiveness.

The further development of dance art took place in two directions: simple - for the people and refined art for the nobility.

Yes, starting from the Middle Ages, the art of dance began to actively develop. Dances decorated folk festivals and home holidays. In the dance of ordinary people you can see the glorification of life, the joy of youth, good luck, the worship of the sun, the vast expanses of the fields... Something pagan is felt in them. Lively rhythm, jumps, circular movements, stomping, jumping - that’s all folk choreography.

There was other art as well. Let's remember what they danced at the royal courts of Europe in the 16th-17th centuries. Who knows? (polonaise, morisco, rigaudon, bure, pavane, courante, volta, galliard, minuet).

And yet all these dances were created by the people. And in high society, the folk dance style changed in accordance with court etiquette. And in 1661, the Royal Academy of Dance appeared in France. And King Louis XIV of France ordered dance teachers to meet regularly and talk about dancing, reflect, and take care of their improvement.

Dance is culture, religion, profession, education, entertainment, history... and now a fragment from the movie “War and Peace” will serve as a transition, like a bridge, from the Middle Ages to our century. Natasha Rostova's first ball. The beginning of the 19th century, almost 200 years ago. This is a ball of the Russian nobility. Natasha turned 16 years old. And now you will see that dance really is life itself - young Natasha puts so much feeling into it!

On the screen is a fragment of the film “War and Peace”

The 20th century came, life changed - it became faster and more fleeting. The dances have also changed and new ones have appeared.

In the 20s, Argentine tango captivated everyone. His true homeland is Spain. And in those days they danced the foxtrot and the Charleston. In the 40s of the twentieth century, rock and roll, boogie-woogie, twist, and shake appeared. Each dance entered the arena quickly and aggressively, appearing like a “caliph for the hour” and quickly giving way to another.

Only one turned out to be timeless. It appeared much earlier and has been sounding for 200 years. The sounds of this dance make you want to spin, soar... Can you guess what dance we are talking about? (waltz).
2. P. Tchaikovsky Waltz of the Flowers from the ballet “The Nutcracker”
The first bars of amazing music are captivating. And now their sound captivated us, communicated its rhythm and breathing, and was reflected on their faces. And the youth of the waltz was stormy and noisy. He went through persecution and attacks. The very circling of the partner with the lady, the fact that he was holding the lady by the waist, seemed like an unheard-of liberty. The instructions of the Russian police under Paul I included a “prohibition on the use of dances called “Walsen”.

G. Sviridov Waltz to A. Pushkin’s story “Blizzard”

But the waltz survived a long struggle and the whole world danced it.

I. Strauss “On the beautiful blue Danube”

Waltzes are different. There are ballroom waltzes, pop waltzes, symphonic waltzes, song waltzes... “Officer’s Waltz” by M. Fradkin gave rise to a whole series of “professional” waltzes: this is “Sailor’s Waltz” by V. Sorokin, several “Soldier’s Waltzes”, “Miner’s Waltz” are known. I. Dunaevsky, “School Waltz” by I. Dunaevsky, there are several “Student Waltzes”, “Collective Farm Waltz” by Mayboroda.

And there are others: “Sevastopol Waltz” by K. Listov, “Siberian Waltz” by G. Nosov, “Kazakh Waltz” by Khalidi, “Kiev Waltz” by Mayboroda, “Minsk Waltz” by Shumilin, “Waltz of the Garden Ring” by Ptichkin, “Bam’s Waltz” Tulikova. The name of these waltzes contains the entire geography of a huge power.

6. D. Shostakovich Waltz - a joke
Every waltz has a little sadness. The waltz is also memories; it carries deep feelings associated with experiences of happiness, joy and sadness, and bright hope.
7. J. Brahms Waltz Op.39, No. 15

The man was born cheerful.

Fashions and rhythms changed too,

But we can't live without dancing

Time passes, century after century...

Man has always lived in worries.

But on every holiday and at leisure time

A happy dance was my best friend.

Time passes, century after century.

Let the snow melt between us.

And let on our big planet

People are dancing and the sun is shining.

IS WALTZ OUTDATED?

When we listen to a waltz, some kind of whirling appears in our imagination. Sometimes it’s slow and smooth, and if the melody is moving, then it’s unstoppable and impetuous. This is probably why the waltz was called a waltz, because this word in German means “spinning, whirling.” The waltz is spinning... As this whirling began 200 years ago, it does not stop to this day. Many other dances have appeared: tango, foxtrot, twist, rock and roll, but the waltz looks at them with a smile, aware of its superiority and greatness. It circles all over the planet and, apparently, will not stop as long as the music lives.

Here is an interesting everyday picture: a folk festival in an Austrian village in the Landl region. The favorite dance here is the Ländler. Once upon a time it was a matchmaking dance, sedate and important, but over time it turned into fast and cheerful. The gentleman, having chosen the girl he liked, took her out into the circle, rotated his partner around him, and both gradually moved around the circle behind other couples. It was from this dance that the beautiful waltz originated.

However, the waltz's path to universal recognition was not easy. The aristocratic and bourgeois environment found much in the new dance unacceptable. The movements of the waltz were considered indecent: has it ever been seen that a gentleman in front of everyone would hug a young lady by the waist and press her to him! There were official and unofficial protests against the waltz. But the bans did not help, and the waltz spread throughout Europe. The 19th century passed under the symbol of the waltz; it was danced everywhere, and above all, of course, in Vienna, the capital of the waltz. Residents of the Austrian capital have always been distinguished by their love of music, especially dancing. To satisfy the “dance appetite”, many dance halls were opened in Vienna. They say that a quarter of the population of this capital disappeared into the dance halls every night, especially attracted there by the wonderful music of Johann Strauss. When Strauss appeared with his violin in the hall for only a few minutes, it was enough to decorate the entire dance celebration and electrify the audience. He was the demon of the Viennese musical folk spirit, his waltzes crossed the borders of Austria, and the inhabitants of many European cities began to dance to his music. Anyone who has heard the waltzes “Tales of the Vienna Woods” or “On the Beautiful Blue Danube” understands why the whole world is in love with Strauss’s melodies. No wonder he bore the title of “King of the Viennese Waltz.” Not a single concert of the famous maestro was complete without the “Blue Danube,” whose melodies were sung and whistled everywhere. This waltz has become a kind of folk symbol of beautiful Vienna.

A special place in the “Waltz Museum” is occupied by the waltzes of the Polish composer Fryderyk Chopin. A brilliant musician, a sensitive and inspired singer of his native Poland, an incomparable piano poet. Chopin was not only a talented musician, he had extraordinary acting skills, wrote poetry, and drew caricatures. And he composed waltzes throughout his very short life, having lived only 39 years. Addressing this everyday dance, he poeticized it. Chopin's waltzes are distinguished by rare melodic beauty. There are not many of them, only 17, but how different they are: some are dreamy, lyrical, while others are characterized by whirlwind, rapid movement, flight.

Fryderyk Chopin was engaged to the daughter of a Polish magnate, Maria Wodzinska. This girl was attractive not only by her appearance, she knew literature well, spoke several languages, wrote poetry, and sang well. But the wedding did not take place; the family was against marriage with the pianist, albeit a very famous one. Chopin had a hard time with this breakup. One day he collected all of Mary’s letters, added to them a dried rose that she had once given her, tied up the bag and wrote on it: “My grief.” And a wonderful monument to Chopin’s poetic love was his waltz, which was called “the farewell waltz of Maria Wodzinska.”

The light step of the Seventh Waltz still rings in my ears,

Like the spring breeze, like the fluttering of outer wings,

Like the world that I discovered in the confusion of musical lines.

That waltz still sounds in me, like a cloud in the blue,

Like a spring in the grass, like a dream that I see in reality,

Like the news that I live in kinship with nature.

In Russia, the waltz was also persecuted. Catherine II disliked him, and under Paul I a police order was published prohibiting “the use of the dance called walsen.” Only Alexander I gave the highest approval to the waltz, personally performing a round of the dance on one of the courtiers points But a ban in art is meaningless, and the Viennese waltz lived a full life, it sounded in Russia too, but in its own way. One of the first creators of the waltz was Alexander Sergeevich Griboyedov, a richly gifted person who showed himself in various fields. Griboedov's main business was the diplomatic service. Literature became my true calling in life. However, there is still a very attractive facet of A.S. Griboyedov’s personality - an excellent musician and composer. Unfortunately, he did not write down his compositions on paper; by chance, only two waltzes were preserved, both are extremely popular and they sound purely Russian, with Russian sadness.

“A brass band is playing in the city garden...” This was a wonderful tradition of Russian musical life: brass bands played in cities and parks. Their repertoire consisted of works of so-called garden music: polkas, marches, quadrilles and waltzes, which were so pleasant to listen to while sitting a little further away on a bench or walking along the alleys of the park. The ancient Russian waltzes “Sadness”, “Autumn Dream”, “Amur Waves”, “On the Hills of Manchuria” and many others gave a special charm to these concerts. The definition of “antique waltzes” is not entirely correct, because most of them were written at the beginning of the 20th century. The point is probably that they are so simple and seem to revive some features of Russian music of an earlier time, hence the feeling of their antiquity. In addition, these waltzes, close to each other in their general mood, are perceived today as music that evokes sadness about something long past. The biography of the waltz “Birch” begins with the romance “Broken Heart” by composer Anton Rubinstein. The music of this romance was not particularly perfect. Many years passed, and at the beginning of the 20th century, the waltz “Birch” appeared in the repertoire of brass bands, the melody of which was a waltz adaptation of the music of a romance. The author of this waltz was the military conductor Evgeny Mikhailovich Dreizin. And “Berezka” is one of the most performed waltzes in our time.

The ancient Russian romance “Black Eyes” is extremely popular all over the world. The verses of this song were composed by the Ukrainian poet Grebenka. It is assumed that he was also the author of the original melody of the song. This song entered the repertoire of gypsy singers, where it was very loved and often sung. There is, however, another version of the origin of the song “Black Eyes”. It was composed by the Cuban composer and guitarist Sindo Garay, he sang this song with a guitar many times, and soon it spread to many countries, reaching distant Russia. It is possible that from the combination of the verses of the Ukrainian poet with the melody of the Cuban musician, one of the many versions of the song “Black Eyes” arose. The version by Fyodor Ivanovich Chaliapin became the most famous; a record of the waltz song “Black Eyes,” sung by the great singer, was distributed throughout the world, which was one of the reasons for the incredible popularity of this waltz.

“Waltzes...Is it monotonous, boring, annoying? They are very different. However, I, a sinful person, do not hide my love for the waltz” - these are the words of the wonderful composer I.O. Dunaevsky. It is enough to name just a few songs: “Song about the Motherland”, “So many good girls”, “Oh, the viburnum is blooming”, and you will immediately remember everyone’s favorite melodies. The work of this composer was unusually multifaceted; he composed both serious symphonic music and light, entertaining music. But most of all he loved writing music for films. And in every film with Dunaevsky’s music you can hear waltzes, very original and melodic. The unusually beautiful and expressive melody of the “Moonlight Waltz”, heard in the movie “Circus”, will be remembered for a long time.

The figurative world of Pushkin's poetry attracted and inspired many composers to create beautiful music. The music written by Georgy Vasilyevich Sviridov for the television film “Blizzard” is unusually poetic. Even without looking at the screen, just listening to the music, you can “see” pictures of nature, genre scenes, and a ball that unfolds against the backdrop of the famous waltz, in the light flying intonations of which some tragic forebodings are felt.

The petals have grown cold

Open lips, childishly moist,

And the hall floats, floats in lingering

The melodies of happiness and melancholy.

Confusion of chandeliers and ripple of mirrors

Merged into one crystal mirage

And the ballroom wind blows and blows with the warmth of fragrant fans...

Generations passed this poetic dance on as a baton to one another. And so he, who never left the dance halls, came to us. How many dances appeared and died down during this time? And the waltz lives and laughs at all the fashions of the century. Maybe the answer is that when they dance the waltz, each couple feels like there are only two of them, and there is a huge, spinning world around them...

Lecture – concert “Waltz – as a musical genre”

Monotonous and crazy

Like a young whirlwind of life,

A noisy whirlwind swirls around the waltz;

Couple flashes after couple.

(“Eugene Onegin” by A.S. Pushkin)

Perhaps thanks to these lines from the novel “Eugene Onegin” by A.S. Pushkin, you guessed that our meeting today is dedicated to the eternal symbol of romanticism, this living, flying, poetic, flexible, gentle dance called WALTZ.

As a musical genre, the waltz has lived an eventful life. Hundreds of composers have composed waltzes, many of them have been written, tens of thousands, maybe even a million; no one has calculated this anywhere. But let’s imagine that there is a “waltz museum”; we go there on an excursion to get acquainted with the most interesting, most diverse “exhibits”.

Humanity has been dancing since time immemorial. Already in rock paintings created several thousand years ago, there are images of dancing people. And in the paintings and sculptures of Ancient Greece and Rome, Ancient Egypt and China that have come down to us, there are countless dance subjects. And next to a person dancing, a person is often depicted playing, with a musical instrument in his hands. Music and dance are inseparable friends; dance without music is almost unthinkable. Dancing without music is like dancing without water. From ancient times to the present day, people have been dancing - on holidays or just on free evenings, having fun at ease or participating in ceremonies. Many centuries ago, dances could be seen both in rural squares, where peasants twirled to the simple accompaniment of homemade instruments, and in magnificent palace halls, accompanied by trumpets, viols or an orchestra. Most of these dances have survived to this day in one form or another.

The fate of Austrian dance is interesting Landler . This paired circular 3-beat dance takes its name from the Austrian region of Landal. At the beginning of the 19th century, he moved from the countryside of Austria and Germany to city halls. They began to dance him at balls and gradually he became famous and beloved by everyone. Waltz.

There are no eternal dances. Sooner or later, their rhythms lag behind the rapid pace of life. The time for the waltz has passed. It is danced very little, and then not in everyday life, but as a ballroom dance. And yet he is alive. Classical music preserved it for humanity. Having captured her era with the help of the waltz - the golden century for music - the 19th century, she raised its common, everyday intonations to the level of high art, for which the change of eras is not only not scary, but also helps to see the value of its creations.

Piano waltzes by Chopin, Schubert, Liszt, Glinka's symphonic Waltz-Fantasy, ballet and symphonic waltzes by Tchaikovsky and Prokofiev, as well as various arrangements for many popular instruments - all this belongs to the treasury of musical classics.

Now the waltz of the “King of Vienna Waltz” by Johann Strauss “Voices of Spring” will sound.

Waltz – in German “Walzer”, which means “rotational”, “dance - spinner”. In the old days, the Germans also called this same dance “roller” - “kruzhenets” or “dreer” - “vertenets”. The names are different, but the meaning is similar. Why are all the words German? Because, according to its ancient origin, it is a German peasant dance. By the way, it was once called that way: “Deutscher” - “German” or “Lendler” - “peasant”. Here are two more interesting names for the waltz: “spinner” - “spinner” and “shleifer” - “grinder”. They also hint at rotational movements. But these names have an interesting feature - they are imitative. The movements of the waltz, it turns out, once imitated the work of a spinner and a grinder. People, it turns out, enjoy repeating the dance movements that they see around them. In the end, all the names were forgotten, only one remained - Waltz - a dance that is danced in pairs, spinning, spinning.

Let's spin together in this gentle and poetic dance. Now the Russian waltz will sound. For Russian composers, the waltz is not only a dance, but also a way of conveying various feelings and moods. So, the “Melancholic Waltz” by A. Dargomyzhsky sounds.

2. A. Dargomyzhsky “Melancholy Waltz”

The path of the waltz to universal recognition was not easy. The aristocratic and bourgeois environment found much in the new dance unacceptable. The movements of the waltz were considered indecent: has it ever been seen that a gentleman in front of everyone would hug a young lady and press her to him... Terrible! As one French journalist said, “the limit of obscenity and obscenity.” There were official and unofficial protests against the waltz. In Vienna in the first decade of the 19th century, it was forbidden to dance a waltz for more than ten minutes. In Russia, the waltz was also persecuted. Catherine the Second disliked him, and under Paul the First a police order was published prohibiting “the use of the dance called walsen.”

But the prohibitions did not help, and the waltz spread across Europe, as one treatise said, “like an epidemic of the common cold.” The waltz microbe turned out to be terribly contagious. End of the 18th century. Vienna is the capital of Austria. On the throne - no matter what the emperor's name was, truly on the throne Waltz . The waltz is danced by everyone, everywhere. The great composer V.A. Mozart, also a Viennese, laughs: “It’s funny to see how people begin to walk in circles in the German manner to any tune, even one that is not at all suitable.” A visiting foreigner notes in his diary: “The whole city, from the washerwoman to the nobleman, is spinning, there is some kind of dancing disease in the waltz!”

Soon, in the 19th century, an epidemic called “Waltz” swept the whole world. How did those sick with the waltz feel? Slight dizziness, a feeling of happiness, some kind of poetic oblivion. And persistent reluctance to be treated. Moreover, there were composers who did everything possible for worldwide distribution Waltz.

Many Russian composers turned to this genre. He was part of social life. The ability to dance and play the waltz was a sign of good upbringing. The waltz was so popular that it was composed and performed not only by composers, but also by poets. An example can be “Waltz” by the Russian playwright, poet and musician A.S. Griboedova. In fact, this waltz is the first Russian instrumental waltz that has survived to this day thanks to its artistic merits. He is popular, well-known and loved by the widest circles of music lovers. So, “Waltz” by A. Griboyedov sounds.

3. A. Griboedov “Waltz”

Here is a new milestone on the clock of history: the 20th century, and with what ease, with what freshness the waltz fights. Our program will continue with the ancient waltz “Autumn Dream” by the English composer Archibald Joyce. Having started his career as a dancer, he, having organized his own dance group, which became one of the most popular in the country, began composing music. These were mainly waltzes, which gave their author an honorarytitle of the English Waltz King.In 1909, Archibald Joyce toured Europe as a conductor. It is quite possible that it was then that he visited Russia, where his waltzes, especially “Autumn Dream,” were loved and remembered. Numerous editions of waltz scores and records with their recordings were published in Russia in huge quantities. At the same time, in the pre-revolutionary years, the first song versions of the waltz “Autumn Dream” appeared. Now we will hear this waltz “Autumn Dream” by Archibald Joyce.

4. A. Joyce “Autumn Waltz”

Plays in the city garden

Brass band.

(song - waltz

M. Blanter and A. Fatyanov

"In the city garden")

This was the wonderful tradition of Russian musical life: military brass bands played in city gardens and parks in the summer. Their repertoire consisted of works of the so-called “garden music”: overtures and suites, fantasies and marches, polkas and waltzes, which were so pleasant to listen to while sitting a little further away on a bench or walking along the alleys of the garden. The so-called “old Russian waltzes” gave a special charm to these concerts, one of the most popular of which is the waltz “On the Hills of Manchuria” by I. Shatrov. This work was written by the military conductor Ilya Alekseevich Shatrov. After graduating from the Warsaw Conservatory, he was appointed bandmaster of the Mokshansky Rifle Regiment. In 1904 - 1905, this regiment was on the fronts of the Russian-Japanese War and took part in the grandiose battle of Mukden, where the losses of Russian troops were especially significant. It was then that Shatrov wrote his waltz “The Moksha Regiment on the Hills of Manchuria,” dedicated to the memory of the fallen. And now we will be transported with you to that garden, to that year and listen to that very waltz.

5. I. Shatrov “On the hills of Manchuria”

This was probably the first “dance epidemic” in the history of world culture that swept the world for such a long time. The waltz swirled first Vienna, and then the whole of Europe. The waltz genre is becoming so popular that it penetrates into different national cultures. This is how the waltz appeared in Tatar music. An example can be “Waltz” by the Tatar composer Khusnulla Valiullin.

6. Kh. Valiullin “Waltz”

In the world of symphonic music, we can find relatively simple dances, transformed by the hands of master composers into fascinating orchestral pieces. Perhaps the first place among these masters is occupied by the famous Austrian composer, nicknamed in his time “the king of waltzes” Johann Strauss - son, so as not to be confused with Strauss - father, also Johann, also a composer, author of more than 250 waltzes, polkas and other dances.

Father and son divided the 19th century between themselves, the father worked in the first half of the century, the son in the second. Having known not only fame, but also all the vicissitudes of the fate of the musician’s profession, which at that time did not enjoy much respect, Strauss the father was against his son’s musical pursuits. But Strauss, the son, went against his father’s will, and even surpassed him in all respects: he lived 30 years longer, was, without a doubt, much more talented and composed twice as many dances - almost 500.

The popularity of Johann Strauss's son's brilliant, sweeping, exciting dances was truly incredible. His waltzes were danced everywhere - in imperial palaces and small taverns, danced in houses, on streets and squares. All of Europe went crazy over Strauss's "Viennese Waltzes". It is difficult to name a composer who managed to captivate the aristocracy with his music and at the same time become a favorite composer in the widest circles of the common people. When the name Strauss is mentioned, a smile always appears on the face - people expect something bright, cheerful, and exciting.

At the end of our meeting, we will hear “Waltz” by Johann Strauss from the operetta “Die Fledermaus,” captivating with both the variety of dance rhythms and the beauty of the melody.

7. J. Strauss “Waltz” from the operetta “Die Fledermaus”

Our tour of the “Waltz Museum” is coming to an end. I would like to add to the above that the waltz genre is not outdated in our time. Every year in Vienna Christmas balls are held, at which the symbol of the holiday is precisely Waltz . Secular famous people from the world of cinema, theater, and ardent fans of this beautiful dance gather there. We hope that you will join them. Thank you for your attention.

Presenter 2.

Today we will tell you about dance music. Dance has been around for as long as humanity. Dance is the art of movement in a certain rhythm. The nature and rhythm of these movements are associated with the traditions and living conditions of different peoples of each historical era. Dance music is music intended to accompany dancing. For each dance, pieces of different types of music are created. Dance music can be vocal or instrumental. Already in ancient times, dances were often combined into dance performances associated with a specific plot. Thus, from the combination of several dance pieces, an ancient instrumental suite was formed. There are known French and English suites that combined several pieces of different character and tempo. These are allemande, courante, sarabande, minuet, bourré, gigue. All dance pieces have their own national characteristics. We will introduce you to one of them - this is a minuet.

Presenter 1.

The minuet is a dance of French origin, and in the 17th century it was a court dance. The fashion for the minuet arose in the 18th century and lasted for a very long time - until the beginning of the 19th century. At the beginning of the 18th century, the minuet appeared in Russia, at the court of Peter 1 and was considered a “school of good manners.” The minuet is distinguished by its smooth and graceful movements, with its characteristic bows and squats. Its size is 3\4.

“Minuet” will be performed vocally by students of the choir class.

“Minuet” in G major for piano will be performed by a student.

Presenter 2.

Dance music enhances the expressiveness of the dancers' movements and gestures. The music of each type of dance differs in its tempo, size, and rhythmic pattern. Dance music can be applied or concert. The music they dance to is called applied music. Concert dance music is performed on stage and is listened to. And such music is composed by professional composers. They also write adaptations of folk dances. Notable examples are Edvard Grieg's "Norwegian Dances", "Hungarian Dances" and Brahms.

Presenter 1.

And now the ancient dance “Contrance” will be performed. This dance originated in England in the late 17th and early 18th centuries, which means “rural dance” in Russian. Later it spread widely in France, then in Germany. As a ballroom dance, country dance became known in Europe in the 19th century and merged with Russian square dance.

Do you know that the expression of humor in music - from a cheerful game, a joke, to the grotesque and even to the embodiment of wild, ominous images, composers simply call Scherzo, which means a joke. This is a small piece of music in a lively, rapid tempo with emphasized rhythm, sometimes forming part of a symphony or sonata. During the era of Romanticism, the scherzo became an independent musical piece, mainly for piano. Vivid examples of scherzos were created by famous composers such as F. Schubert, F. Chopin, R. Schumann, P. Tchaikovsky, F. Mendelssohn and others.

Everyone knows the dance, which has stood the test of time and remains popular today. Of course it's Waltz. The waltz has been known for more than two hundred years. The name of this dance comes from the German word walzer "to roll out". The waltz is danced by smoothly twirling couples, its tempo varies - from slow to very fast. The waltz has a three-beat meter, characterized by a supporting accent in the bass on the strong beat of the bar and two chords on the weak beats.

Poets have written many poems about the waltz.

in his poem “Eugene Onegin” he conveyed his feelings in this way.

Monotonous and crazy

The hand flew up, the fingers were angry,

And sounds were in the air,

Drops rained down the passages.

And alternating bass notes

Flazhalet with the flight of lungs,

The lightest bow is indignant,

Kept the melody and tempo.

And in the black mirror of the piano

Hands wavered.

Playing your melody

The servant of torment closed his eyes.

And in this sensitive performance,

And in the dance of fingers, a sea of notes

Merged into tango for a moment

The soul of art and the chord.

At the end of our concert, you will hear a composition in the style of the new tango by Astor Piazzolla - “Libertango” for piano, performed by an ensemble of 7th grade students.
