This book is a fascicle of the basic music class, which is closely coordinated with the other two fascicles: ear training fascicle and solfeggio fascicle. The content of this book includes two parts: notation, basic knowledge (sound length, pitch, beat, rhythm, speed, strength, interval, major and minor modes, national modes, chords, tonality changes, decorative sounds, tunes, textures, etc. ), and added some new chapters on the basis of years of teaching experience. For example, in order to cultivate the "strength level" of rhythm and improve the "timbre" of pitch (such as natural color, artistic color, poor chromaticity, etc. ), and analyzes the "mode sound and dynamic law" of national mode. This book emphasizes the integration of theory with practice, and provides more examples of music works in the explanation of the principle of music elements, avoiding the boredom of pure learning theory, improving learning interest and consolidating basic knowledge. On the one hand, this is for the needs of solfeggio class, on the other hand, it is also for students to lay a good theoretical foundation, clear obstacles and reduce difficulties for studying other courses in the future.

Basic music is a basic music course that combines basic theoretical knowledge (music theory) with basic skill training (solfeggio). It is extremely important for every music major student. However, some students think that this course is only about reading and memorizing music because the teaching purpose of this course is not clear. This is a misunderstanding that teaching means is regarded as teaching purpose.
After the founding of New China, China has never published a basic music textbook which integrates music theory, solfeggio and ear training, and is suitable for music majors in normal universities. 1992, the Teachers' Basic Music Education Branch of China Musicians Association, which was established during the 5th National Seminar on Music Education Reform held in Jinan, formed a textbook compilation committee at the request of teachers, and started to compile three basic music courses: Music Theory, Solfeggio and Eartraining.
This series of textbooks first embodies the new concept of basic music teaching purpose: first, improve music quality. Second, develop musical memory. Third, cultivate creative consciousness. I agree with all three aspects. First, improving the quality of music is not just technical training. We should cultivate the ability of music appreciation while training music perception, so as to improve the ability of understanding music works. This is the main thing. Secondly, it is very important for every musician to cultivate musical memory. Without a good musical memory, no matter what major you are engaged in (playing music, singing, writing, composing), it is difficult to move. It is said that Mozart and Luo Hei, a singer of the Tang Dynasty in China, have amazing memories. Although there are their natural factors, they can't do without a lot of music information stored in their brains during the learning process. According to research by scientists, the human brain can store 46 million pieces of information. The average person still has 90% potential that has not been brought into play. Therefore, it is very necessary to help students develop their memory in basic music courses. Years of experience also show that this is entirely possible. Third, cultivating creative consciousness first requires students to develop the habit of independent thinking. We should not only insist on finishing homework independently after class, but also be good at summing up what the teacher said in class, and be able to grasp the key points and ask questions. This course designs theoretical analysis questions of solfeggio and ear training, and requires basic training of improvisation. These methods are of great benefit to cultivating pioneering talents with innovative spirit.
More than 20 members who participated in the compilation of basic music courses are experienced teachers who have been teaching in the front line for many years, devoted themselves to research, achieved fruitful results, dared to reform, dared to innovate and experienced. In particular, Professor Sun Congyin, the editor-in-chief, has been engaged in teaching and research of this subject for nearly 50 years since he worked in Shanghai China Conservatory of Music from 65438 to 0946, and has accumulated rich experience.
On the basis of inheriting excellent traditions, basic music courses give full play to collective wisdom. First of all, it summarizes the teaching experience in China, and at the same time, it refers to foreign new textbooks and advanced teaching methods, absorbs the scientific research achievements of Chinese national music theory, highlights the teacher's nature, sets out from reality and faces the foundation. For the roll call method that has been debated in China for decades, this course clearly puts forward the suggestion of focusing on the first sound roll call method and studying the fixed roll call method. This is in line with the reality of normal universities in China. The specific teaching methods of how to master these two roll-call methods proposed in this course are also very helpful for beginners.
The three volumes of basic music courses focus on ear training (musical hearing training) in teaching. The teaching of solfeggio and music theory should focus on the eight musical elements in auditory training, so that students can learn in the spiral rise of eight repeated cycles. This kind of teaching material and teaching method has been fully affirmed and widely used abroad. Because it conforms to the objective laws required by the human brain in learning, it is gradual, consolidated repeatedly and constantly improved.
The compilation of the basic music course has made the teaching reform of this subject take a new step. I wish you continue to work hard to enrich and improve the content of teaching materials and make greater contributions to the reform of national music education.
Li Ling's books are textbooks for music majors in normal universities. It is a basic music course that combines basic theoretical knowledge (music theory) with basic skill training (solfeggio). At the same time, it can also be used as teaching materials for amateur classes, education and further education institutions, normal schools, kindergarten teachers and cultural centers, as well as self-study reference books for music teachers and music lovers in primary and secondary schools.
