Short course

musical literature

I.S. BACH
1. Polyphony is polyphony. In a polyphonic work, there can be from two to five voices, each of which develops independently, but they are all woven into one musical fabric. Polyphony was widespread during the Renaissance (XVI - XVII centuries) by outstanding polyphonic musicians in the 1st half of the XVII century. were: German composers Georg Friedrich Handel, Georg Philipp Telemann, English - Henry Purcell, French composer Jean Baptiste Lully.
In Italy, Antonio Vivaldi stood out. His violin concertos and the suite "The Seasons" are widely known. In France, the most famous composers - harpsichordists: Jean Philippe Rameau, Francois Couperin, Louis Claude Daken. Harpsichord sonatas are very popular now. Italian composer Domenico Scarlatti.
But the "father" of polyphony is considered to be the great German composer Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 - 1750). His work is great and multifaceted.
Bach was born in the German town of Eisenach. There he spent his childhood, where he learned to play the organ, violin and harpsichord. From the age of 15 he lived independently: first in the city of Lüneburg, then, in search of work, he moved to the city of Weimar, where he served as an organist in the church and wrote here his best organ works: “Toccata and Fugue in D minor”, ​​organ choral preludes and fugues. Then he moves to the city of Köthen.
In Köthen, he serves as a court musician to the Prince of Köthen, and here he wrote the best clavier works: the 1st volume of the HTC (well-tempered clavier), 6 English and 6 French suites, inventions, Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue.
Bach spent his last years in Leipzig. Here he worked as the head of the school of singers (cantor) at the Church of St. Thomas and wrote many choral works: "Mass in B minor", "Passion according to John", "Passion according to Matthew" and other best examples of cantatas and oratorios. Here he wrote the 2nd volume of the CTC.

I.S. Bach became the creator of polyphonic music. Nobody wrote polyphony better than him. His three sons also became famous composers, but the name of Johann Sebastian Bach entered the history of musical art for all time! His music is eternal and understandable to people - it is alive.
2. Vienna classical school.
This is a creative direction in the music of the late 18th - early 19th centuries, which developed in Vienna (the capital of the Austrian Empire). Three composers belong to him:
Joseph Haydn, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Ludwig van Beethoven. In their work, a sonata-symphony cycle was formed. Their works are perfect in form and content (i.e. classical). That is why they were called the great Viennese classics.
The music of the composers of the Viennese classical school still remains an unsurpassed example of composition (classical - one of the meanings of the word - exemplary). School - here the concept of succession, i.e. continuation and improvement by one composer of the traditions and ideas of his predecessor.
The Viennese classics used a new musical warehouse (a way of expressing musical thought) - homophonic-harmonic, where there is a main melodic voice, and the rest of the voices accompany the melody (it is accompanied). In their work, an 8-bar (square) period is formed. This is due to the use of Austrian and German folk themes. The harmony is dominated by the triads of the main steps T, S, D.

Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) was the oldest of Viennese classics. The genres of sonata, symphony, concerto and quartet were finally formed in his work. He is called the "father" of the symphony (he has more than 100 of them). His music is based on the themes of folk dances and songs, which he develops with great skill. In his work, the composition of the symphony orchestra was also formed, consisting of three groups of instruments - strings, wind and percussion. Almost all his life he served as a court musician to Prince Esterhazy, creating 104 symphonies, 52 sonatas, concertos and 83 quartets. But the top was his 12 London symphonies, the oratorios "The Seasons" and "Creation of the World", written in London at the end of his life.

Haydn's follower was a German composer W. A. ​​Mozart (1756-1791). His bright music is still modern - a vivid example of classicism. FROM early years he began to compose sonatas, symphonies and operas. Using Haydn's sonata-symphony cycle, Mozart developed and enriched it. If Haydn has a contrast between the main and side parties is not pronounced, then Mozart's main part is very different in character from the side part and the development (middle section) is therefore more saturated. Mozart's music with amazing power conveys both mournful tragic moods ("Requiem"), and humorous images, and beautiful nature. Mozart's music is distinguished by its beauty and grace. Mozart is the author of many operas, the most famous of which are: The Marriage of Figaro, The Magic Flute, Don Giovanni. He has about 50 symphonies (the most famous are G minor No. 40 and Jupiter No. 41), many sonatas, concertos for clavier, violin, oboe, flute, divertissements.

Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) - the third Viennese classic.
The great German composer was born in Bonn. A contemporary of the French Revolution, he embodied in his music the rebellious pathos, the dream of freedom and happiness of mankind. He created 9 symphonies (the most famous: in C minor No. 5, No. 9), a number of overtures (“Coriolanus”, “Egmont”, “Leonore”); 32 sonatas (“Moonlight” No. 14, “Pathetic” No. 8, “Appassionata” No. 23, etc.) opera “Fidelio”, 5 piano concertos, violin concerto and sonatas for violin, 16 string quartets. Beethoven's work is filled with great energy, the contrast between themes is very bright, his music is dramatic and at the same time life-affirming and accessible to the understanding of all people.
3. The era of romanticism in music.
Romanticism is a trend in art that arose at the beginning of the 19th century, at the time of reaction after the French bourgeois revolution. People of art could not at that time truthfully reflect reality and they had to either go into the world of fantasy or reflect the inner world of a person, his feelings and emotions.
In music, the first romantic composer was
Franz Schubert (1797-1828) - the great Austrian composer - songwriter (he has more than 600 of them).
In his youth, he had to experience many losses. Once in Vienna alone, he lived with friends and acquaintances and was full of hope for a wonderful future. His songs during this period are light in content (the cycle "The Beautiful Miller"). But gradually he begins to understand that life is not so cloudless as it seemed to him, that the fate of a musician is poverty and need. In the song "The Organ Grinder" he painted his own portrait - a singer thrown out by society. Gloomy moods are reflected in the cycle "Winter Way", "Swan Song". Such masterpieces as the ballad "Forest King", "Margarita at the spinning wheel" were written to the words of Goethe. "Serenade" Schubert firmly entered the repertoire famous singers. In addition to songs, Schubert also wrote 8 symphonies (the most famous is "Unfinished" in B minor No. 8 in two parts). He also has many small piano works: musical moments, impromptu, ecossaises, waltzes.
Schubert died very early - at the age of 31, but with his works he managed to prepare the appearance of followers of his work.
One of them was the Polish composer of the piano genre
Fryderyk Chopin (1810 – 1849).
His music is brilliant. Despite the fact that he wrote exclusively for the piano, he nevertheless opened up a whole world - from the secret depths of human feelings to simple scenes of village life.
Turning to the Polish national genres - mazurkas, polonaises, waltzes, he showed them from different angles. For example, his mazurkas can be ballroom, or they can resemble a simple village dance. Polonaise - sometimes brilliant, sometimes tragic.
Waltzes are also very diverse in character, and his etudes go beyond the scope of a purely technical work - these are already concert pieces - paintings. Chopin's preludes are small in size, but very different in shades of feelings touched upon in them. Chopin's nocturnes are examples of melody and harmony. Chopin is the creator of a new genre of piano music - the ballad genre. He also has sonatas. Chopin's funeral march is familiar to everyone - this is the 3rd movement of the B minor sonata.
Fryderyk Chopin is the favorite composer of many pianists. Since 1927, Warsaw has regularly hosted the World Chopin Piano Competition.
The third romantic of foreign music -
Robert Schumann (1810 – 1856).
This is a great German composer - a dreamer and an inventor. He had an amazing ability to portray people in music, often with humor. The piano cycle "Carnival" is his most famous work. He wrote many small pieces for pianoforte, "Album for youth", "Butterflies", 3 sonatas, "Symphonic etudes" and other works.
4 . Creativity of composers of the second half of the 19th - early 20th century.

Verdi created the first of them when he was 26 years old ("Oberto, Count di San Bonifacio"), and he wrote the last one at the age of 80 ("Falstaff"). The author of 32 operas (including new editions of works written earlier) is Verdi Giuseppe. His biography is still of great interest to this day, and Verdi's creations are still included in the main repertoire of theaters around the world.. His most famous operas were Aida, Rigoletto, and La Traviata.

Edvard Grieg (1843 - 1907) - period, figure,,. Grieg's work was formed under the influence of Norwegian folk culture.

Among the most famous works Grieg - two suites from the music for the drama "", violin sonatas.

Grieg paid the main attention to songs and, of which he published more than 600. About twenty more of his plays were published posthumously. Grieg's vocal compositions are written to the words of Danish and Norwegian, sometimes German poets.

Claude Debussy (1862-1918) - The French composer C. Debussy is often called the father of the music of the 20th century. He showed that every sound, chord, tonality can be heard in a new way, can live a freer, multicolored life, as if enjoying its very sound, its gradual, mysterious dissolution in silence. It is no coincidence that Debussy is considered the main representative. The composer's favorite genre is a program suite (orchestral and piano), like a series of diverse paintings, where the static landscapes are set off by fast moving, often dance rhythms. Such are the suites for orchestra "" (1899), "" (1905) and "" (1912). For the piano, "", "," are created, which Debussy dedicated to his daughter.

In addition, "All Russian symphonic music is contained in Glinka's Kamarinskaya, like an oak tree in an acorn." - wrote P.I. Tchaikovsky. It really is. In addition to "Kamarinskaya" Glinka wrote two overtures on Spanish themes " Aragonese jota” and “A Night in Madrid”, and his “Waltz Fantasy” is an example of beautiful lyrics in instrumental music.
Summing up everything that was created before him by Russian composers, Glinka raised Russian music to a qualitatively new level and achieved recognition of Russian music at the world level.

Alexander Sergeevich Dargomyzhsky (1813 – 1869)
A follower and younger contemporary of Glinka, he entered the history of Russian musical culture, as the creator of socially accusatory works. Among them is an opera based on the plot of the tragedy of the same name by Pushkin "Mermaid", where the composer conveyed the tragedy of a simple peasant girl Natasha, abandoned by the prince, the grief of her father. Another opera is based on the text of Pushkin's little tragedy The Stone Guest. This is also a socio-psychological drama. In his operas, Dargomyzhsky introduced a new principle of end-to-end musical development. It consisted in the fact that musical numbers: arias, arioso, duets, choirs - smoothly and without stopping turn into recitative and vice versa, and the orchestral part often finishes what is not expressed in words.
Dargomyzhsky author of about 100 romances and songs. Among them are very popular: "I'm sad", "Old corporal", "Titular adviser", "Worm" and others.
In his music, Dargomyzhsky relied on the folk song, but at the same time on the intonation of living human speech. “I want the sound to directly express the word. I want the truth! - this is the creative credo of Dargomyzhsky.

6. Musical culture of the second half of the 19th century.
In the second half of the 19th century, the rise of national art began in Russia - literature, painting, music. At this time, a circle of like-minded musicians arose, called by the famous music critic Stasov "Mighty Bunch". It is also called the Great Russian Five or the New Russian School.
The circle included 5 composers.

Nikolai Andreevich Rimsky-Korsakov (1844-1908) - a talented Russian composer, one of the most important figures in the creation of an invaluable domestic musical heritage.

At the same time, the concept of approach to the "national" affiliation of this or that music has changed, there is practically no direct quotation of folk melodies, but the Russian intonational basis, the Russian soul, has remained.

Alexander Nikolaevich SKRYABIN (1872 - 1915) - Russian composer and pianist, one of the brightest personalities of Russian and world musical culture. The original and deeply poetic work of Scriabin stood out for its innovation even against the background of the birth of many new trends in art associated with changes in public life at the turn of the 20th century.
The peak of Scriabin's composing work was the years 1903-1908, when the Third Symphony ("Divine Poem"), the symphonic "Poem of Ecstasy", "Tragic" and "Satanic" piano poems, 4th and 5th sonatas and other works were released. Another masterpiece of Scriabin is "Prometheus" ("Poem of Fire"), in which the author completely updated his harmonic language, departing from the traditional tonal system, and for the first time in history, this work was supposed to be accompanied by color music, but the premiere, for technical reasons, passed no light effects.

He quickly became known as a conductor and pianist, composing music. The disastrous premiere of the groundbreaking First Symphony (1897) in St. Petersburg caused a creative composer's crisis, from which Rachmaninoff emerged in the early 1900s with a style that combined Russian church songwriting, fading European romanticism, modern impressionism and neoclassicism, all saturated with complex symbolism. During this creative period, his best works were born, including 2 and 3 piano concertos, the Second Symphony and his favorite work - the poem "The Bells" for choir, soloists and orchestra.
In 1917, Rachmaninov and his family were forced to leave our country and settle in the United States.

He began to compose professionally relatively late, but the rise was swift - a series of three ballets: The Firebird (1910), Petrushka (1911) and The Rite of Spring (1913) immediately brought him to the number of composers of the first magnitude.
In 1914 he left Russia, as it turned out almost forever (in 1962 there were tours in the USSR). Stravinsky is a cosmopolitan, having had to change several countries - Russia, Switzerland, France, and ended up living in the USA. His work is divided into three periods - "Russian", "neoclassical", American "serial production", the periods are divided not by the time of life in different countries, but by the author's "handwriting".

Sergei Sergeevich PROKOFIEV (1891-1953) - one of the greatest Russian composers of the 20th century, pianist, conductor. Prokofiev can be considered one of the few (if not the only) Russian musical "wunderkinds", from the age of 5 he was engaged in composing, at the age of 9 he wrote two operas (of course, these works are still immature, but they show a desire for creation), at the age of 13 he passed exams in St. Petersburg Conservatory, among his teachers was N.A. Rimsky-Korsakov.

Prokofiev's work is striking in its versatility and breadth of themes, the originality of his musical thinking, freshness and originality made up an entire era in the world musical culture of the 20th century and had a powerful impact on many Soviet and foreign composers.

Dmitry Dmitrievich SHOSTAKOVICH ( 1906 - 1975) - one of the most significant and performed composers in the world, his influence on contemporary classical music is immeasurable. His creations are true expressions of the inner human drama and the annals of the difficult events of the 20th century, where the deeply personal is intertwined with the tragedy of man and mankind, with the fate of his native country.

World fame came to Shostakovich after winning the 1st International Chopin Competition in 1927.

What is musical literature?

What is literature? These are books written by writers. And not just writers. Literature includes, for example, folk tales recorded and processed by collectors of folk art.

Our literature is musical. What music books? These are notes. But few experienced musicians can read music like books. And the music that is written in these notes is listened to and loved by almost everyone. So here it is:

How? Another one? And the specialty? What about solfeggio?

On solfeggio you study notes, intervals, keys. It's yours musical literacy. Also, ear training. After all, all this must not only be learned, but also be able to hear. And in your specialty, you master musical performance: learn to touch your instrument correctly and deftly in order to play beautifully and expressively, to perform music.

What does beautiful and expressive mean? This is the question that music literature answers. Today we start looking for an answer. And for this we will begin to learn to listen to music.

Is it necessary to learn to listen to music? — you might be surprised. And you will be right in your own way. Once a famous Norwegian violinist of the 19th century Ole Bull as a result of a shipwreck, he ended up on an island inhabited by wild tribes. And the savages were fascinated by the violin of the great artist, although they had never heard European music before. And already in the XX century, the French traveler and scientist Alain Geerbran took records of Mozart's music on a trip to the Makiritare Indians, who live in the Amazon jungle and cut off from the rest of the world. The effect was amazing, Geerbran even made a film about it.

As if these examples show that music can be felt even without special preparation. But let's imagine that we are listening to a beautiful poem in French or English that we don't know. We can probably feel the beauty of the verse, we can even guess its mood. But we do not understand what is at stake, because we do not know language.

And music also has its own, musical language. But this language is special. It has no words, only sounds. But these are magical sounds that can make you laugh and cry, and can even tell a whole story.

Something you already know. About major and minor, for example. You know that happy music is more often in major, and sad music is in minor. What is the difference between slow music and fast music? Yes, of course, pace. Is there sad music in major, but cheerful music in minor? It turns out it happens. Because the nature of music depends not only on fret(and major and minor are modes), but also from many other things that are called means musical expressiveness . They form the basis of the musical language.

instrumental the melody may contain large jumps, chromatic movement, embellishments.

2. Rhythm organizes the melody in time. Rhythm features affect the character of the melody. The predominance of even durations at a calm tempo makes the melody smooth. The variety of durations gives it grace and flexibility.

3. Harmony is a sequence of chords. Supporting the melody, harmony fills it with new expressive colors.

4. Register is the pitch of the sound. The scale is divided into upper, middle and lower registers. The expressiveness of each register is peculiar. The middle register is the softest and most sonorous. The lower sounds seem gloomy, booming. Upper - sound light, transparent, loud.
