A good song textbook should have the characteristics of "good listening" and "singing tolerance". Only beautiful tunes can produce touching artistic charm, and students can still want to listen and sing after listening, and they can never tire of listening and singing. We should make full use of these textbooks. We just need a little more time to let the students enjoy singing, indulge in songs such as Pearl of the Orient, Saint Lucia, Edelweiss and Singing Faces, and make the world full of love, which is an aesthetic enjoyment in itself-the integration of participants and beautiful music works, a manifestation of harmonious beauty. Among them, although the teaching goal of "Pearl of the Orient" is only to appreciate and sing one or two sentences, the simple and harmonious beauty of the tune and rhyme of this song deeply attracts students and makes them sing along. We can let students design their own strength, speed and timbre to better express the emotions of songs. Another example is "Song of Wrapping Horses", which has a very compact melody, a sense of jumping, and is very cheerful and active; The whole song "Dance of Youth" has a brisk rhythm, jumping and full of vitality, and the tune flows up and down, occasionally jumping, which is very cheerful and smooth; Such exquisite and lively tunes are all songs that students like to sing very much. There are more classic music, which I can never get tired of listening to, such as the beautiful wedding March; The tune has both the rhythm of the March and the more relaxed and humorous Radsky March; Sometimes majestic, smooth and lively, sometimes graceful, lyrical and feminine, and sometimes brisk, playful, cheerful and lively "String Serenade in G Major" (the first movement): Yao Dance, Carmen Overture and butterfly lovers, to name a few. Students like to listen to more music, so that children can freely spread their imagination wings and soar in the vast music world. Excellent works can easily infect students. We just need to make full use of the beauty of these textbooks and take "sensory comfort" as the main aesthetic activity.
(2) the beauty of artistic conception and situation
A good song teaching material can always express people's feelings: either it contains beautiful meanings, or it expresses warm-hearted songs, or it shows beautiful dreams, or it shows passionate emotions, which will sprout beautiful seeds. There are many such songs and music teaching materials, such as National Anthem, Soldiers, Song of Seven Sons-Macau, Waves of Gulangyu Island, March of China People's Liberation Army (military music), Andante for Song, Defending the Yellow River (the fourth movement of the piano concerto Yellow River) and Yellow River. One of the appreciation songs, Waves of Gulangyu Island, has a beautiful tune, but it is a little old for children and doesn't like listening to it very much. We can highlight the beauty of artistic conception by reciting the lyrics first. The lyrics describe that "I" was born in Taiwan Province Province, but I am far away from my hometown. Standing on Gulangyu Island, far away from Keelung Port in Taiwan Province Province, facing the sea, I miss my relatives in my hometown. The true feelings of looking forward to the reunification of the motherland and the early reunion of relatives can't be suppressed. After that, I will appreciate the work and ask my classmates what the characteristics of this song are. The children will answer with a melody as beautiful as the waves. For another example, appreciating the song "China People's Liberation Army March" shows the heroic, overwhelming and courageous military power of the people's army, shows passionate patriotic feelings and has a profound appeal to students. Similarly, we can change it into a singing track, and the singing form can be not only chorus, but also rotation. As far as possible, let students participate in the works to experience the beauty of artistic conception and situation, which is an aesthetic activity of "spiritual enlightenment".
(3) The beauty of orchestration and accompaniment
Music appreciation teaching materials should embody classics and documents, show the essence of human music culture and show the crystallization of beauty. The "beauty" of instrumental teaching materials lies in simple arrangement, and through orchestration, it shows the rich beauty, changing beauty and harmonious beauty of its timbre and texture. For example, in the fourth movement of "Trout Piano Quintet", stringed instruments and colorful violins play a cheerful music theme, showing the free and carefree image of small trout; The bright timbre of the piano and the arpeggio accompaniment of the string instrument sextet show the happy and carefree scene of the little trout in the clear water; Cello plays a sad and desolate theme, showing sympathy and sadness for the tragic experience of small trout. We can ask such a question: the theme of each music remains the same, try to change the instrument, and what is played in the concert? Violin-small trout-lively and free, replaced by cello-fat trout-clumsy bondage; Piano-river-clear, replaced by cello-river-turbid. Another example is the fragment of "two Jews-the poor and the rich" in the photo exhibition of Russian composer Musorgskiy. Among them, the ensemble of woodwind instruments and stringed instruments plays intermittent music, showing the image of arrogance, majesty, arrogance and rudeness of the rich, which is very rare in symphony orchestras; It is very realistic to play the image of the poor smart, nervous, trembling and flattering in front of the rich with a dumb trumpet. Trumpet was originally a powerful musical instrument, also known as "Rush", with a brave temperament. In this piece of music, it retains its flexible and changeable characteristics, and with a silent and continuous vibrato, the vivid image of the poor described above appears. I have to admit that French composer Ravel's orchestration of Musorgskiy's piano suite is so excellent and brilliant. (Note: The composer of Photo Exhibition is Musorgskiy. It was originally a piano suite. Because this work is a brilliant model, it has attracted the attention and research of many experts. There are at least five orchestral adaptations, among which the orchestration by French composer Ravel is the most outstanding and widely circulated. ) Also, Unit 5 of Volume 14, besides enjoying Polka's Thunder and Lightning, you can also supplement Polka the Blacksmith. Are these two songs (Little) John? Strausch's works are very distinctive in orchestration. The ingenious use of gong (lightning) and drum (thunder) in Polka's Thunder and Lightning, and the ingenious use of hammer and anvil in Polka's Blacksmith fully demonstrate the rich timbre and texture, the beauty of change and harmony in music arrangement through orchestration. There are too many excellent works, so I won't give examples here. Moreover, every music teacher will find and explore different aesthetic factors for the same textbook, and the analysis and treatment of the textbook will have its own uniqueness. In short, we should try our best to show the beautiful side of the work to the students. Over time, the aesthetic effect of "moistening things quietly" has naturally formed.
