Музыка – величайшее из искусств. Онаотражает чувства человека, его душу. Когда мы грустим, то слушаем или создаемминорную мелодию, через которую показываем свои переживания и эмоции. Когда намхорошо и весело, также с помощью музыки хотим поделиться своим счастьем со всеммиром. И вот через такую возможность выразить свои эмоции посредством музыки,принимаем верные решения в жизни. Музыка способна избавить от одиночества,наполнить энергией, возродить, задать новый темп жизни. Звуки музыки окружаютнас с рождения и не отпускают до конца. С ними объясняются в любви, веселятся ипразднуют, переживают горе и даже провожают в последний путь.
Still, Im sure everybodywill agree with me that music is the universal language of the world. Musicappeals to our heart. It reflects our mood and emotions. Music helps us notonly be happy but understand each other, appreciate such feelings as love,friendship, sympathy and just our life in general. Its the universal languagefor people of different ages, generations, professions and even differentsocial background .So, lets devote our lesson to music.
Блюз – направление в народнойафроамериканской музыке. Название «блюз» происходит от англосаксонского «blue»,означающее меланхолию, грусть, печаль. Блюз очень простой в исполнении и всегдагрустный. Нередко его сравнивают с русским романсом, в котором также отражаютсяразличные жизненные трагедии и переживания. В блюзовых песнях, несмотря напримитивность мелодии, много экспрессии и красок. Но все они рассказывают о грустныхсобытиях: безответной любви, страданиях чернокожего народа, тоске по родине,жизни в неволе, тяжести невольничьего труда и нищете, и так далее.
Что такое джаз – это бодрая и веселаямузыка для танцев. Она заводит, исполняется для поднятия настроения. Появлениев американской культуре джаза стало возможным благодаря Христофору Колумбу.Именно с него начался завоз чернокожих рабов на новый континент, а вместе сними в Америку и попали народные африканские ритмы, родоначальники джаза.
Особенности джаза:
свобода и сложность ритма;
неровный темп;
много импровизации, особенно в началекомпозиции;
минимум условностей и границ в исполнении;
богатство гармонии и темпа, обилие ритма;
высокая эмоциональность подачимузыкального материала.
Особенности блюза:
простота мелодии;
напевность и протяжность;
экспрессивность текста;
установление диалога между исполнителемпесни и инструментом.
Блюзовые композиции исполняются напианино, гитаре или банджо. Первоначально чернокожие исполнители несопровождали свои грустные песни аккомпанементом, но позже стали подыгрыватьмелодию на тех простых инструментах, что удавалось достать.
Джаз традиционно исполняется небольшимколлективом, характерными инструментами для него являются ударные, духовые,фортепиано и контрабас. Пожалуй, самым традиционным для джазового исполненияявляется саксофон, наряду с ним также используются тромбон и труба.
