Step 1
If you decide to tell children about the music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, then when getting acquainted with the work of this composer, you should let the children listen to the recording of the works "Children's Album" and "The Four Seasons".
Step 2
After listening, proceed to discuss the content and nature of what you heard. Let the children share their experience of the piece of music. Being emotionally prepared will allow you to teach your children about music and about the composer.
Step 3
The content of your story about the composer should include interesting information about his childhood, when his talent manifested itself. For example, Tchaikovsky or Mozart composed and performed their first musical creations at the age of 5-6. This will be an example for children, instill confidence that they too can someday become talented people.
Step 4
As you continue to tell the children about music, pay attention to the fact that the composer you are talking about recorded the music using sheet music (show the sheet music to the children). Explain that he did this so that any musician could perform his piece of music.
Step 5
Invite the children to try to play the instrument by sheet music. The guys will understand that they will not succeed without knowledge of musical notation. And that it is necessary to learn to perform a piece of music.
Step 6
Tell us about the role of a performer who is also a creative person. Show the children portraits of famous performers. Ask the children to answer the questions: Why do you need a performer? Why should he be a creative and talented person? Explain that with the help of the performers, we can listen to what the composer has written.
Step 7
Then, as you talk about music to your children, teach them how to listen to great works. Let the children listen to the play "Doll's Illness" by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Explain why they felt the sadness of the girl who had the doll sick. Some of the children could hear the girl crying. In this way, children learn to listen to and understand music.
Tell us how important it is to listen to the music in order to understand what feelings the composer wanted to convey to us.
