-Liszt (famous Hungarian composer, pianist and conductor)
The greatest value of singing is to awaken life. Recently, Beijing Youth Daily published such a news that there was a young Wu in Taiwan Province Province. After he became a vegetable in a car accident, his mother insisted on playing the song of his idol Wu Bai for two years, and finally miraculously woke up his son.
Experts in Japan, the United States and other countries have found that singing is very beneficial to people's physical and mental health. The rhythm of songs can excite chest muscles, expand lungs, increase vital capacity, deepen and lengthen breathing, and make bronchus unobstructed. Singing can even improve the body's immunity. It is like a catalyst, which improves the effectiveness of thinking and enhances the effectiveness of learning.
There is a beautiful legend: Since the beginning of the world by Pangu, the goddess Nu Wa has worked at sunrise and rested at sunset, and her life has been very bitter and tiring. So she adopted the sound of nature, the color of nature, which made people happy. Therefore, from a psychological point of view, singing can effectively regulate emotions, and sad songs can help vent dissatisfaction, depression and other bad emotions; Light songs can increase happiness; Classic old songs can also arouse people's memories of youth, add vitality and arouse people's passion for life. People who often sing rarely have the opportunity to be agitated and anxious, because singing can vent their depressed gas, cheer up their spirits and make people feel comfortable. Facts have proved that people who are engaged in manual or mental work often sing a song, which is a good way to relieve mental fatigue.
In fact, doesn't the language formation of a person's life begin with the "eyah" sound in infancy? Children are the spirits of music. In June, let children accept the mission of singing, indulge in singing, express their feelings with singing, sing praises of beauty with singing, light up their golden childhood with singing, and conquer the vast world with singing. Let the children wander in the world of art with their own songs!

Pipa player's song
Bai Juyi
In the evening, I bid farewell to a guest on Xunyang River. Maple leaves and mature rushes rustle in autumn. I, the host, have dismounted, my guest has boarded his boat, and we raise our cups, hoping to drink-but, alas, there is no music.
Although we drank a lot of wine, we were not happy. When we were leaving each other, the river mysteriously widened in the direction of the full moon. We heard a sudden sound, a guitar crossed the water, the host forgot to go home and the guests left.
We followed the melody, asked the player's name, and the voice was interrupted ... and then she reluctantly answered. We moved the boat closer to hers, invited her to join us, and summoned more wine and lanterns to start our party again.
However, before she came to us, we called a thousand times and urged her for a thousand times, but she still hid half of her face behind her guitar from us. ... she turned the tuning pin and tested several strings, and even before she played, we could feel her feelings.
Every string is a kind of meditation, and every note is a kind of deep thinking, as if she were telling us the pain of her life. She frowned, bent her fingers, and then started her music, letting her heart share everything with us bit by bit.
She brushed the strings, slowly twisted, swept and plucked, first the air in the rainbow skirt, then the six small ones. Big strings hum like rain, and small strings whisper like secrets.
Humming, whispering-and then mixing together, like pouring large and small pearls into a plate of jade. Guan Yingying's ass was slippery when she spoke, and we heard a stream sobbing painfully on the beach.
By checking its cold touch, this string seems to be broken, as if it can't pass; And notes, fade away. The depth of sadness and the hiding of sadness are more told in silence than in voice.
A silver vase suddenly burst, pouring out a stream of water, jumping out of the conflict and blow between armored horses and weapons. Before she put down the pick, her stroke was over, and all four strings made a sound, just like tearing silk.
The east ship was silent, and the west ship was silent. We saw the white autumn moon entering the river. She tied it thoughtfully on the rope, stood up and smoothed her clothes, serious and polite.
Tell us how she spent her girlhood in the capital and lived in her parents' house in Toad Hill. She mastered the guitar at the age of thirteen, and her name ranked first in the list of musicians.
Song "always teach good talents and dress up like an autumn furnace." I can't count all the songs of how noble young people in Wuling once competed nobly.
The silver comb inlaid with shells was broken by her rhythm, and the bloody skirt was stained with wine. Season after season, joy followed, and neither the autumn moon nor the spring breeze attracted her attention.
Until her brother went to war, and then her aunt died, and the night passed, and the night came, and her beauty disappeared. There were fewer and fewer cars and horses in front of the door, and finally she married herself to a businessman.
Who, first of all, stole money, accidentally left her and went to Fuliang to buy tea a month ago. And she has been taking care of an empty boat in the estuary. Around the cabin, the moon and the river are cold.
Sometimes in the middle of the night, she dreams of her victory and is awakened from her dream by her hot tears. Her first guitar note made me sigh. Now, after listening to her story, I feel even sadder.
We were all unhappy until the end of the day, when we met. We understand. What is the relationship between acquaintances? . A year ago, I left the capital and came here. Now I am a sick Jiujiang exile.
Jiujiang is so far away that I haven't heard music, neither strings nor bamboo sounds for a whole year. My residence is near the town by the river, low and humid, and the house is surrounded by bitter reeds and yellow rushes.
What can you hear here in the morning and evening? The cuckoo's bleeding cry, the ape's sobbing. I often pick up the wine and drink it alone in the spring morning with flowers and the autumn night with moonlight.
There are no folk songs and Guti, but they are rough and harsh. Tonight, when I heard you playing the guitar, I felt that my hearing was illuminated by wonderful music.
Don't leave us. Come, sit down. Play it for us again. I will write a Long song about the guitar ... She was moved by my words, stood there for a while, and then sat down to play her strings-they sounded even sadder.
Although the tune was different from what she had played before, all the listeners covered their faces. But which of them cried the most? Jiangzhou Sima Qing is wet.

The elephant became a big fan of Mozart.
Music is not only the common language of human beings, but also can cause animals to sing strongly. A zoo in Yugoslavia held a concert specially for a widowed elephant to treat its depression. And this elephant became a loyal fan of Mozart.
This female elephant named Suma is 45 years old, and her husband and partner who have been with her for decades died of cancer. Sad Suma seems to have lost the courage to live. She refused to eat, was indifferent to the surrounding environment and showed obvious symptoms of depression.
Anxious and helpless breeders accidentally heard that Mozart's music can also cure animals, so they decided to give it a try. The zoo held a classical concert opposite the garden where Suma lived. When Suma saw five musicians appear near his territory, he became very nervous and irritable. He also attacked the "invaders" by sucking pebbles with his nose. However, when the music started, it soon quieted down.
Anic, director of the zoo, said, "We were really fascinated to see Suma. She leaned against the fence and closed her eyes. Throughout the concert, she did not move. " Besides many Mozart's music, musicians also played several pieces of music by Vivaldi and Schubert.
Seeing the curative effect of classical music, the zoo bought a set of stereo for Sue Ma Tiantian to enjoy. Judging from its reaction, it is the most obsessed with Mozart's music, known as "the warmest healing music", and also has a preference for Vival's music and Bach's music. In this way, Ma Su's life in his later years finally had a sustenance.
Boyaxue piano
During the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a man named Boya who studied guqin with Mr. Cheng Lian and mastered various playing skills. But the teacher thinks that when he plays, he often doesn't understand deeply, and simply playing notes can't arouse the audience's * * *. The teacher wants to train him to be a real artist. One day, Mr. Cheng Lian said to Boya, "My teacher Fang Zichun lives in the East China Sea. He can teach people how to cultivate interest. I'll take you there and let him tell you something, which can greatly improve your artistic level. " So I prepared dry food and set out by boat. After arriving at Penglai Mountain in the East China Sea, Mr. Cheng Lian said to Boya, "You stay here and practice the piano, and I'll find the master." After that, he rocked the boat and drifted away.
Ten days have passed and Mr. Cheng Lian hasn't come back yet. Boya waited anxiously on the island. After tuning the piano every day, he looked up and down, and there was no one there. He only heard the sound of the sea crashing and gurgling. Looking at the forest over there, it is lush and unpredictable, and the sound of birds singing and flying comes from time to time. These interesting and strange scenes let him fully appreciate the natural scenery, feel relaxed like a dream, and have a much higher taste. Boya has a creative desire to integrate his emotions into music, so his father wrote a song called Water Cao Xian. This is a masterpiece with beautiful sound and rhyme. From then on, he realized that artists should cultivate noble sentiments and art should be emotional. Before long, Mr. Cheng Lian shook it back again. After listening to his emotional performance, I praised his performance for its artistic life and learning beauty. Boya knows that teachers must rely on nature to give him lessons. Since then, Boya has accumulated life and artistic experience and finally became an excellent player in the world.
Classical music and word memory
One day in the 1960s, the Institute of Implication in Sofia, Bulgaria, conducted an experiment. Subjects *** 16 people, including doctors, engineers, judges, architects and teachers, the youngest is 22 years old and the oldest is 60 years old. They were told in advance that the content of the experiment was to learn French in a novel and efficient way.
After the experiment began, classical music played a slow and solemn movement in the classroom. The teacher asked the listener to close his eyes, let his body muscles relax in the music, let his nervous mood calm down and breathe slowly and rhythmically. At this time, the speed of music is 60 beats per minute, and the rhythm is four beats. The teacher reads a French word or phrase every 8 beats and repeats it constantly; And constantly change the tone, either soft or stiff; Or boring, or interesting ... the subject leaned back quietly and listened comfortably.
A few hours later, the teacher tested the memory efficiency of words on the spot. The result is amazing: they wrote 300 words in a short time, with an average score of 97. Before the experiment, the subjects thought that there was no shortcut to learning a foreign language and it was a waste of time to participate in such an experiment. But after this amazing achievement, everyone was in high spirits and felt that they suddenly became tall and smart.
This is an experimental scene of super memory method advocated by Bulgarian scholar Lazanov. Some scholars represented by him believe that classical music (especially baroque music) with 60 beats and 4 beats per minute can relax the body and make various physiological rhythms such as heartbeat and brain waves tend to be synchronized with music; In this physiological state, the brain will become very alert, thus greatly improving learning efficiency. It is said that this method is effective for people with high intelligence or low intelligence, young or old, high education or low education. Participants in the experiment can master a foreign language in one month and complete the history course for half a year in a few weeks, which is beneficial to health.
Scientists and music
It is generally believed that scientific thinking belongs to logical thinking, mainly using the left hemisphere; Music thinking belongs to image thinking, which mainly uses the right hemisphere. This left and right seem to be two different things. However, the great scientist Einstein said, "Great scientists and great musicians are the same in this respect-they are both great poets."
In fact, many scientists throughout the ages are rich in musical literacy. They have both scientific and musical talents.
Pythagoras, an ancient Greek scholar, had a keen ear for music. People are used to the sound of blacksmiths striking while the iron is hot, and don't feel any different from each other. But he heard the difference. One day I passed a blacksmith's shop and heard the knock on the door of this shop more harmonious and pleasant than others. He measured the size of the anvil and the hammer, and finally found that there was a certain proportional relationship between the harmony of the sound and the vocal body.
Einstein can play both the piano and the violin, and he is familiar with Beethoven, Bach and other music masters. He even thinks that his achievements in playing sogeum are greater than his contribution to science.
Madame Curie likes music and is very cultured.
Many people know that China geologist Li Siguang is good at playing the violin.
Mathematician Hua is familiar with the melody, and the best timbre he found on the pipa strings is exactly the same as that obtained by the famous pipa player Liu Dehai after long-term measurement.
Qian Xuesen, a famous scientist, has a variety of artistic accomplishments and likes playing the piano. His wife is a famous singer and a professor at Jiang Ying Central Conservatory of Music. He once said: "When I am confused about the difficulties in my work, it is often Jiang Ying's singing that makes me suddenly enlightened. Qian Xuesen I want to emphasize the interaction between literature and technology. "
A sad song saved his life.
There are many famous sentences in China's ancient poems. Two of them are often used to describe poems, songs or words with extreme sadness: "However, ask her for this song, and in the first few words, I hope you will cry." It comes from an ancient music story in China.
During the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, there was a Cangzhou singer named He Manzi, who was outstanding in beauty and art. For some reason, she was sentenced to death by the government. The death penalty was executed in the capital Chang 'an. Before the execution, the executioner asked her what she wanted last. The singer said that what she wanted to do most was to sing a song before she died. The prison guard thought that the prisoner was a fragile woman and asked her to sing a song without any accident, so she agreed. He Manzi, who was dying, was not afraid of death, but extremely indignant. Singing, like a spring gushing from a crack in the rock, accuses the world of injustice, pours out one's own grievances, breaks one's heart, and touches the audience in the dark world. Some tears can't help but wash down. Song, just as the executioner raised his butcher's knife and lowered his head, suddenly there came a hurried voice: "Wait a minute! The imperial edict is coming! " . It turned out that when the singer narrated the beginning of the elegy, one person in the palace saw that He Manzi was superior in color and art, and thought it was a pity to kill him, so he rode a horse and raised a whip to tell the then emperor Li Longji. Li is the emperor who likes singing and dancing most in the history of our country. He is very talented in music. He is good at composing, playing and choreographing. He personally founded a large-scale court music and dance institution-"Liyuan". Of course, he didn't want to kill a talent like He Manzi, so he immediately pardoned her for capital punishment. He Manzi didn't expect a sad song to save his life.
Soon, someone sorted out the songs on He Manzi's execution ground and named them "He Manzi". Since then, "He Manzi" has become synonymous with elegy. The poet Bai Juyi wrote a poem: "Man Zi is the name of a person in the world, and the song began when he was sentenced." A song with four words and eight stacks is heartbroken from the beginning. Zhang Hu, a contemporary poet, also wrote a poem called He Manzi: "Thousands of miles away, a maid-in-waiting lived here for 20 years, but asked her for this song. In the first few words, I hope you will cry." . "Legend has it that after reading this poem, prostitutes in brothels lamented themselves and He Manzi's" We are both unhappy-forever "and cried earth-shattering, and immediately put it into a very popular song.
Singing-Learn to sing in golden childhood
Sing happily and sadly, that is the song of the soul; Singing while working and singing while playing, that is the song of life; Blessed to sing, looking forward to singing, this is a sacred song ... singing is the only language in the world. Learn to sing, you will have the common language of all mankind, and you will build a bridge between hearts. Sing, decorate your life with songs and make our life full of sunshine.
Learn to sing easily
Goal: Be able to sing one or two songs independently and confidently!
Way:
(A) Repeated listening-the easiest way to learn songs
Music is an art of hearing. Listening is the most basic first step for anyone who wants to enter the music world.
Policy 1:
Primary schools can carry out the activity of "singing once a week", and junior high schools can carry out the artistic action of "singing once a week". Play songs that need to be sung repeatedly on the school radio station during recess, and students learn songs by listening repeatedly.
Strategy 2:
Use the school closed-circuit television system to organize the artistic elite of the school TV station. On the first day of every week, arrange 30 minutes to give face-to-face lectures to all students through video. For the next three days, the students listened to it repeatedly on the radio. On the last day, the accompaniment tape was played, and the students sang along with the music.
(2) Solfeggio-suitable for people with a certain musical foundation.
Classroom teaching and audio-visual combination are often used to teach students to use the above media to learn solfeggio music scores, and have the ability to learn to sing new songs independently, laying the foundation for lifelong learning to sing songs.
(C) the new soundtrack of old songs-adapted for accompaniment creation
With the help of familiar melodies, filling favorite stories, such as filling the routine requirements of the day with the melody of "Lucky Three Treasures", is both a singing method and a discipline. Try to fill the lyrics with the melody of the songs you have learned, and make a second creation, which not only improves the students' creative ability, but also consolidates the position of the melody of the newly learned songs in your heart many times, laying the foundation for the cantata songs to stay in tune.
Singing skills
When giving students singing guidance, we should pay attention to the following points:
1, cultivate students' correct posture.
Ask students to keep their heads and bodies upright, don't shrug their shoulders and be nervous when singing; When sitting, put your hands on your knees naturally; When standing, your hands naturally hang down at your sides, chest out and abdomen in. ?
2. Instruct students to breathe correctly
Breathing is weak and short. When singing, people often feel powerless and inhale in phrases that should not be breathed, thus destroying the integrity of the tune. Therefore, students should be instructed not to raise their heads, shrug their shoulders and make no noise when breathing, and insist on singing first and then taking a breath to express the emotional appeal of the song. ?
3. Guide students to pronounce correctly.
Students should be instructed to sing in a natural voice instead of shouting at the top of their voices, which can protect their voices and make singing emotional. Let the children listen to the models sing more, understand what a natural and pleasant voice is, and how to sing different songs with different voices. ?
4. Guide students to articulate clearly and accurately.
When teaching students to sing, teachers should first bite the prefix correctly and pronounce words clearly. Words that are difficult to pronounce can be read aloud first, and then sung after reading orthography. ?
Step 5 sing the right tune
When teaching students to sing, try to sing in the right tune and not out of tune. Teachers should have a pair of musical ears, have a keen insight into everything, and correct children's inaccurate singing in time. ?
6. Correct students' bad singing habits.
Such as shrug, shouting, etc. When you find your child has a cold or hoarseness, let him rest. Educate students not to run and shout in cold weather; Don't let children drink cold water after strenuous activities, so as not to stimulate the sound.
The Charm of Songs-Artistic life is always a song.
"Work, just like you are not obsessed with money. Love as if you have never been hurt. Dance as if no one is watching. Sing as if no one is listening. Living a good life is like a paradise on earth. " Singing can bring each other closer; Singing can make life better. In school, we can develop various art societies and clubs with singing as the starting point, so that children can be nourished by alternative nutrition in a world different from the classroom.
Strategy 1: Establish colorful societies.
Establish art societies and offer more art projects suitable for children, such as chorus, dance, drama club, folk art, calligraphy and painting. Let every child have artistic expertise and let art accompany the child for a lifetime.
Strategy 2: Create artistic life
"There is no shortage of beauty in life, what is lacking is the eyes that find beauty". We should hold campus art festivals and folk culture festivals on a regular basis, hold school or family concerts, decorate school corridors and aisles with artistic themes, "provide elegant aesthetic education environment for children, let classical songs reverberate on campus and at home, let literary classics stop in bookcases and reading rooms, and let the world famous paintings hang on the walls", and let art light up children's lives.
The Meeting of Songs —— Happy Mood Station
We don't want our children to become music professionals in the future, but to cultivate their basic literacy and general appreciation of life. It is necessary to create various opportunities for children to sing in front of everyone, so that they can be appreciated by others and enjoy the happiness of success.
On normal days, we always start the morning meeting and class activities with wonderful songs, and even set aside enough time for singing activities in music class. In June, I participated in a semester of art interest group activities, which is coming to an end. The school should build a display platform, hold various interest group activities, and strive to create an exchange atmosphere where you sing and I come on stage. For example:
(A) "Moon Exhibition" activities
The school determines a unified artistic theme such as painting, calligraphy and paper-cutting every month, and the art teacher integrates the art curriculum to organize students to carry out corresponding theme art activities. Class selection of outstanding works to participate in the school's general selection, outstanding works on display every month.
(B) class art booth activities
Taking advantage of the "June 1" celebration, art teachers use art classes, and according to the specific situation of each class, each class chooses an art form to coach several "little teachers" (parents and volunteers can also be mobilized to participate). During the activity, all students break the class freedom and choose their favorite art forms to study and try.
(3) Story picture book solitaire
Students use the time in Chinese class to collectively create a story according to a unified theme, and then divide it into several paragraphs. Students or groups choose an episode to create (the teacher unifies the hero's shape in advance), and the whole class cooperates to complete a story picture book.
(4) Archives of artistic growth
Work with parents to help students build their own artistic growth portfolio, so that students can find their own artistic highlights and build their self-confidence.
(5) Establish a list of artistic stars.
Record every small achievement of students in art, reward them with "crayon dolls" and "note dolls", form a positive art learning atmosphere, and fully tap students' artistic talent.
Conditional schools can hold various forms of campus art festivals, including school song chorus, nursery rhyme singing, children's song chorus, group performance singing, teachers and students singing on the same stage and the selection of the top ten singers on campus. Let the children's songs, laughter and applause spread to every corner of the campus. Parents can also be invited to participate in music festivals, so that more children can show their singing talents and find opportunities for happy growth. We don't have to care how sweet children's songs are, and we don't have to demand how gorgeous the performance stage is. As long as children are willing to show their voices and enjoy their happiness, our singing concerts and art education activities will be the most successful.
It is music that brings us spiritual wealth, a unique language to communicate with the world, and a way to pour out emotional secrets. Singing will give every child more life, more happy feelings and more confidence in the love of this colorful world. Let songs grow with children.
