How to Cultivate Musical Literacy
Many parents want their children to have high musical literacy. Summer vacation is coming, many children have entered various music training classes in the expectation of their parents, and some parents have taken their children to the theater to listen to concerts. However, for adult audiences, it is pleasant and enjoyable to go into the theater to enjoy a concert, but it is not so easy for younger children. Some readers called this newspaper and said that a few days ago, at a concert in a theater in Zhengzhou, children's slapstick sounds came from time to time, and parents kept flashing cameras, which made the whole concert very lively. So, what kind of music education should we give our children so that they can get good music literacy? I believe this is a problem that many parents are very concerned about. It is certainly beneficial for parents to attend concerts and training classes only on their own wishful thinking. We can get inspiration from many excellent people, such as Li Siguang, Einstein, Yuan Longping, Greenspan and so on. Many parents also realize that musical talent plays an important role in a person's growth. Nowadays, for many parents, taking their children to the concert has become a fashionable and elegant cultural activity. Parents want their children to be influenced by elegant art. In order to improve their children's competitiveness in the future life journey, some parents even spend huge sums of money to let their children learn music. "Everyone has the ability and right to learn music and receive music education. This is the most basic proposition of modern music education. However, everyone's potential musical ability is significantly different. " Chen Jiahai, vice president of the Art College of Heda University, said that Mozart, the most famous prodigy in music history, began to show his musical talent at the age of three, which shows that children have unlimited possibilities in musical ability, but parents should also realize that not every child has musical talent like Mozart. Chen Jiahai pointed out that the motivation of some parents to take their children to learn music now is to pass the exam, and their understanding of music only stays in mastering and improving their skills. Some parents impose their unfulfilled wishes on their children to learn music. These are all undesirable. "At present, on the whole, the social orientation formed by parental consciousness is more utilitarian. "Now many children learn piano, violin and vocal music, which is understandable. It is also good for children to learn instrumental music, but parents should think about how to teach and learn. Children face grade exams every year, and bear the mental pressure of passing the exams every year prematurely. As far as piano skills are concerned, it is easy for children to ignore the skill training needed for piano because they are practicing graded music all the year round. Let's talk about it. Suffering from this kind of pressure early has made children tired of piano learning. What is even more frightening is that this weariness may be transferred to other disciplines. If such a consequence is formed, it will not be worth the loss for children to learn the piano. Music is a perceptual art, and the charm of music lies in giving people a space to gallop and imagine. A good music, or contains a beautiful meaning, or expresses a warm heart, or sets off a beautiful dream, or shows burning feelings. This kind of beauty of conception and artistic conception has profound attraction to people and will leave a brand of beauty in their minds. When children have no feelings for music, but parents reluctantly take them to music venues or music training classes, it may be just parents' wishful thinking to cultivate children's higher musical literacy. Interest guides professional education and lets music enter children's hearts. "Parents and schools should first do a good job in appreciating concert etiquette knowledge. In fact, the concert etiquette is consistent with our usual traditional etiquette. Parents should pay attention to the education of their children in their usual words and deeds. " Chen Jiahai believes that parents should often play some classical music to let their children know about music and cultivate their aesthetic quality. When guiding children to enjoy concerts, they should selectively appreciate works and concerts. This requires parents to know the repertoire played by concert performers before attending the concert, and choose some concerts and music works suitable for children to enjoy according to their specific conditions. Generally speaking, musical ability includes three aspects: musical appreciation ability, performance skills and creative skills. In the face of children's musical performance, parents must carefully observe and understand, and fully respect the individual differences of children's musical ability. If a child can't grasp the intonation well when singing, it doesn't mean that he must have no musical talent, maybe he has an excellent sense of rhythm; Just because a child's movements are not graceful when learning dance doesn't mean that he must lack musical talent. Perhaps his coordination ability is not good enough, but this does not prevent him from having an unusual feeling about music. It doesn't matter if children learn slowly. We can observe and discover his other advantages in musical ability with our heart. If children are interested in music, they need to receive formal professional training, and parents should confirm the relevant qualifications of teachers to ensure that children get high-quality teaching. "In addition, the choice of tracks is also very important. For preschool children, parents can choose some children's musicals. The rich plots of children's dramas are very attractive to children; Parents can choose some easy-to-understand music for older children; Those works such as philosophical and difficult tracks and variations should be selected according to the children's acceptance of music. " Chen Jiahai also pointed out that while helping children learn music, parents should also study and make progress with their children to help them understand and appreciate music.
