Program:

"Mowgli" based on the book of R. Kipling

The performance "Mowgli" is a large-scale show designed for a large cast of artists, a serious symphony orchestra and chorus, and a modern lighting score. In "Mowgli" the innovation of choreography was manifested in the development of plasticity, brought from the world of the jungle, characteristic "animal" gestures and movements

"Cipollino"

One of the best ballet companies in Moscow "Russian Seasons" offers children the colorful ballet "Cipollino" to the music of K. Khachaturian, staged by Nikolai Androsov, turning into a fascinating comedy-detective story.

One of the most beloved works of Sergei Prokofiev. In November 1945, he wrote: "The main thing that I wanted to convey in the music of Cinderella is the poetic love of Cinderella and Prince, the birth and flowering of feelings, obstacles in his path, the fulfillment of dreams." The interpretation of Kasatkina and Vasilev is very close to the composer's intention. In their setting, the piercing expectation of a miracle and the very miraculous transformation of the main character come to the fore, which has become a reality thanks to the magic help of the Fairy and the crystal shoe.

He will turn the meeting of amateurs and professionals into a real joint performance.

When the musicians perform "live" works of composers, the children will have the opportunity to listen to how this or that instrument solo in the orchestra, will be able to distinguish it from the general sound mass, and, of course, will have time to enjoy the sound of the orchestral tutti.

Since April 2014 he has been giving music concerts for listeners from 0 to 4 years old. The repertoire includes classics, jazz, folk, rock ballads, covers of romantic melodies, dance hits and songs from cartoons. On stage there are professional musicians, from regional bands to world stars. In the hall there are pillows instead of chairs and complete freedom for the little ones. We figured out what the secret of the popularity of entertainment, unusual for modern children, is.

The project started from a sold-out audience at a classical concert of a string quartet and less than a year later became a laureate of the Kids-friendly Business Award 2014 (among other nominees - the Darwin Museum of Moscow and Sochi Park).

On the eve of the children's philharmonic's second birthday, we met with its founder and director Irina Stoletskaya to talk about goals, children, music and leisure in Samara.

Irina Stoletskaya

founder and director of the Children's Philharmonic

about the project

Our project is like oxygen in the spiritual life of the city, where the lion's share of children's leisure time is built on the competitive principle of "who is brighter", at work with form, not content. In Samara, it is still fashionable to arrange children's birthdays one cooler than the other; photo shoots depicting love in families who cannot agree even in everyday trifles; it is fashionable to buy more and more “pepp pigs”, drawing children into the consumer society and creating from them the same consumers who cannot give and cannot stop, because the saturation point is at infinity.

The only way to stop this race is to start enjoying life by doing what you like, not what is trending; be, not seem to be. I see such families at our concerts - missing real, high-quality leisure for the soul.

The idea of ​​classical concerts for toddlers is not new, but if in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg or Novosibirsk you need to register for them in a month, we still have performances that do not pay off.

About the approach

It is almost impossible to introduce children to live music in all its diversity at home or in a club. For this, there must be special conditions, a special repertoire, special musicians. It is necessary to take into account the specifics of the perception and musical development of babies. Therefore, we began the development of our project with serious consultations - with the neurophysiologist Tatyana Potekhina and the chairman Samara orff-club Irina Korneeva. They were based on their advice when forming the concept and structure of concerts, choosing and decorating the premises, and purchasing props.

We began the development of the project with consultations with a neurophysiologist and an orph teacher

During our concerts, children can move - at an early age they learn about the world and, in particular, music through movement. It is very important for us that parents are not embarrassed about the behavior of their children: they can freely approach the musicians, try to catch the bow from the cello, and steal the maracas from the percussionist. Against the whims, we have a whole arsenal of remedies from musical instruments to goodies.

We try to work with any listener, including families whose interests do not include music. Often, having visited our concert, people change their attitude to the classics, bring friends; grandparents join the kids, realizing that this is one of the few places in the city where you can relax with your children.

The geography of our audience was vast from the very beginning - people came and are coming to us from Novokuibyshevsk, from Krasnaya Glinka, and Sukha Samarka. For kids, such a long trip is, of course, a kind of test, but, on the other hand, it never occurs to anyone to complain that the circus, for example, was not built at Mekhzavod.

About finance

The project has always been financed from the personal funds of its participants and sometimes survives exclusively thanks to our altruism. A ticket for a mom and a baby costs 1000 rubles, an additional ticket for a member of the same family - a brother or a dad - is only 100 rubles. That is, on average, about 330 rubles per person is obtained - a quite competitive figure - people spend more in entertainment centers or cafes.

The visit costs 300 rubles per person. Entertainment centers spend much more

At the same time, the events are chamber. We are expecting 15-20 families to attend the concerts. More than twenty little bees buzzing and flying around the hall is already a discomfort for all participants. But even with a full appointment, usually 5-7 families less come: babies may have a runny nose, a tummy ache. We value our listeners and rarely cancel concerts. In addition, we - the only ones in Samara - have a rule about the full transfer of the cost of a ticket to any other concert in the event of a baby's illness. We do this so that parents do not bring sick or ill-treated children, but many who do business in the children's field frankly do not understand us.

And finally, we still have subsidized concerts, which are possible at the expense of donor ones - everything rests on this balance. In any case, this is not a business, but rather a social project.

About the repertoire

Every week we have different groups perform - now there are more than 20 of them. Basically, artists from the Samara Philharmonic Society and the Opera and Ballet Theater - string quartets, guitar and flute duets, and so on. There are bands playing rock and roll, waltzes, tangos and cartoon melodies. There are interactive concerts of Russian folk music, where the best folklorists of Samara not only sing, but also play with children, show performances, and lead round dances. We appreciate the opportunity to work with musicians who were applauded by the whole world, with virtuosos, about whom it is clear that their work in Samara is temporary.

Many bands in our club already have fans from kids and parents who know the songs, are waiting for concerts and have replenished the arsenal of toys with their favorite musical instruments.

We do not focus on children's melodies - it is important for us to give children the opportunity to hear music in all its diversity.

All our musicians are professionals. Many have decent experience with children. They try to maintain a dialogue with the audience, select a repertoire in order to be on the wave with the audience. We do not focus on children's melodies - it is important for us to give children the opportunity to hear music in all its diversity. Melodies of the era of classicism and baroque give a feeling of peace and harmony, dance music promotes musical and motor development, folklore awakens memory and introduces a child to folk culture.

Many folk concerts we have are subsidized, but we do not give up hope to convince parents that folk can be attractive and fascinating, like a group.

Why buy season tickets at all? Well, first of all, the "wholesale is cheaper" rule works even in the Philharmonic. Compare the subscription price with regular tickets for the same concerts - you will notice. It's nice, especially if you love music (or want to love it) and dream that the closest person will share the hobby with you. Or - about happiness! - if this has already happened, and the child cannot live without symphony concerts. In short, if you often go to listen to music, a subscription will save you from ruin.

Secondly, the subscription is disciplined. At our pace of life, it's no secret that the temptation to "breathe out" and relax is pursuing. Do not forget, keep track of when tickets will appear at the box office, buy them quickly, until they run out, and everything in order to leave your cozy home on a legal day off in search of cultural entertainment ... Maybe not this time? There are still plenty of concerts ahead. Sounds familiar, isn't it? In the finale, by an inexplicable coincidence, May comes, there are practically no concerts left on the poster, and you never made it out this year. The subscription reduces the likelihood of such falling away from the culture. What to hide: padded! But even if you suddenly miss a concert, you will not lose much money in comparison with the usual ticket price.

These arguments, however, work under one condition. Going to the Philharmonic should really bring you joy and not torment your child. Otherwise - pay attention to the forum thread "Extra ticket". It is there, among the sufferers, painfully attaching the disappearing season tickets and bitterly regretting the money spent unwisely, that you risk ending up.

Where to begin?

There is no one-size-fits-all recipe. When choosing, it is best not to focus on fashion, classmates or friends in the playground / kindergarten. Based on your child's addictions. You can read descriptions of concerts and reviews about them, see what kind of orchestra is playing, what they write about the performers. Or you can - and this is the safest option - to buy a trial ticket and go to the concert of the season ticket you like. Buy it next season if you like it.

How to choose a suitable subscription?

The child is ready to listen to reading aloud even for days on end, and he practically does not care what they read to him? In this case, it seems preferable to start with programs that combine music and artistic word. This can, of course, be any version of the "Fairy Tales with Orchestra" subscription, which has firmly held the palm in popularity in recent years. Here famous artists read aloud famous children's texts in dialogue with the Academic Symphony Orchestra of the Moscow Philharmonic.

Subscription number 51A "Tales with an orchestra" season 2013-2014

Subscription number 51 "Tales with the Orchestra" season 2013-2014

Subscription number 52 "Tales with an orchestra. Selected" season 2013-2014

Subscription number 52-A "Tales with an orchestra. Selected" season 2013-2014

You can choose "There were also fables", aka "The Funny Professor", to listen to the virtuoso reading of the wonderful Pavel Lyubimtsev.

All these concerts are annually held in the Tchaikovsky Hall (it is very beautiful there, and this is also important), and not only tickets for them are in great demand, but even individual tickets are not easy to buy.

But don't get hung up! Try to choose a similar program on a less "promoted" site. For example, for the little ones - any of the fabulous subscriptions to the Chamber Hall, the Gnessin Russian Academy of Music, the Gnesinsky Concert Hall on Povarskaya, "Orchestrion" or even. Not as grandiose as the Great Philharmonic Hall, these halls can be more comfortable for kids, and tickets are cheaper there. And the concerts here are excellent too. Say, "Fairy tales for the little ones" in Gnesinka. Or, for example, Svetlana Vinogradova, who told fairy tales to us, parents, is giving concerts at the Orchestrion. It is better, however, to make sure in advance that these "Fairy Tales for All" will suit you too. Especially if there is no childish nostalgia behind your choice.

The Philharmonic Society annually prepares programs combining music and words for older children. The list changes slightly from year to year, but the selection rule described above applies here too. Try, for example, to be like "In the land of unlearned lessons" on Povarskaya. "Fabulous" subscriptions, here or in any other hall, are also often interesting for grown-up children - choose according to your taste. Excellent music in a virtuoso performance is almost guaranteed.

Some happy people love to learn - learn new things, listen to stories. The Philharmonic also has concerts aimed at such an audience of different ages. First of all, I recall, again from childhood, "Big music for little ones", familiar to many parents, with the permanent presenter Natalya Panasyuk. Older children, "as well as their parents", will be interested in listening to the already mentioned Svetlana Vinogradova, the legendary Zhanna Dozortseva - she conducts programs in the Tchaikovsky Hall ("Music, Painting, Life") and in the Great Hall of the Conservatory ("By Countries and Continents"). The best performers and orchestras always play here. Prefer a more youthful style? Go to Artem Vargaftik and see how modern classical music is.

Now about the most important and most target audience of any philharmonic concerts. About children who do not want to listen to any words because words get in their way. About those who want to hear only music. This is a gift, and age does not matter here. If you notice that this is the case with your child, do not torture him. These halls are a unique place where he has such an opportunity. And he will still get the words - well, at least in the theater. There are not too many children's subscriptions with a minimum of words, but they are. Here again it makes sense, for example, to pay attention to the programs of Zhanna Dozortseva. While the child is still too small to withstand the introductory text, you can come to its end. And just listen to music. If you have not found a suitable subscription from the children's repertoire, take a look at the adult symphony concerts. After all, you can leave early if the child gets tired. True, in the event that we are dealing with the type described above, you are more likely to get tired.

The proposed division is, of course, rather arbitrary. How meaningless are attempts to get a clear recommendation when choosing any concert, performance or book. Until you listen, see, read, understand. So go ahead to good music. Just don't be late! Every year the sale of season tickets opens earlier and earlier, and the queues for them at the box office are getting longer. And this cannot but rejoice: you give a generation of music lovers!

Today will be especially useful, of the format "where to go with a child on the weekend" and "concerts with children" and the like. Professionals of music subscriptions may not read the text for beginners, about children's subscriptions to the Moscow Philharmonic and Conservatory.

So that's it. Why now. Because it's already a week since the season for the sale of season tickets for adults and children has opened. You can choose. Two main directions of the format "children + classical music" (and not only).

Classics of the genre - subscription for children No. 4, Moscow Conservatory. Conductor and storyteller - Vyacheslav Valeev. Concerts on Sundays (only 4 per season), duration about an hour. Valeev does an excellent job with a children's audience, K. loves him very much. It is important to understand that baby passes do not mean that your child will sit in one place, stretching out in line. It’s not like that at all. For example, at one of the concerts of the subscription, the children sang songs with the orchestra with the whole audience, K. was very inspired, then for two days he told how he liked it, to sing like this in the conservatory. The cost of a subscription for the next season is 1200-8000 rubles.

In addition to the classic fourth subscription, there is also a "Travel Around the World" - each concert is dedicated to a country, for example, France. We listen to Debussy, Ravel, Poulenc. Etc. There is a subscription dedicated to great composers, there is a “fairytale subscription”.

The Moscow Philharmonic offers an even wider selection of different subscriptions for children. We went to listen to The Funny Professor this season. Each concert is thematic, Pavel Lyubimtsev wonderfully talks about a variety of things, Osipov's orchestra supports, slides are displayed on the screens, in a word, everything is done ideally for children so that no one is bored. For example, yesterday K. went to the concert “From Moscow to the Pacific Ocean. Great Russian travelers and discoverers of the Far Eastern lands. " I went out in absolute delight, talking about Bering, Kamchatka, geysers, Yakut music. In a word, this is not just an acquaintance with music, but also a conditionally "educational program", and Pavel Lyubimtsev talks about everything so excitingly, without lisping and flirting with the children's audience, but with a lot of interesting facts, beautiful intonations that both adults and children listen to. For example, I arrived early yesterday for K., decided to stop by, sit for a while in the lobby, listen for a little, and then run away on business. But in the end, I watched the whole concert on the screen - I just could not tear myself away.

In fact, the Philharmonic offers dozens of children's subscriptions, all different in themes. If you like fairy tales and music, there are a lot of “fairytale subscriptions”. For example, “Tales with an orchestra. Saturday afternoon symphony concerts for children "with the participation of the beautiful Yulia Peresild and Chulpan Khamatova, a wonderful subscription of" regional music "conducted by Artem Vargaftik, there is a subscription" How the forest man taught the music alphabet. " Daytime concerts for toddlers from 3 to 7 years old ”for the smallest, the only one that goes not 6+, but 0+ on the website of the Philharmonic. In general, for every taste.

By the way, with regard to age. I doubted for a long time when to start these going to concerts with a child, in the end I decided not to take him anywhere at three, we started going at four, in our case it turned out to be the very age. He runs subscriptions 6+, no questions.

Finally, another story that sometimes stops people - like buying a subscription, then getting sick, skipping, and so on. In fact, as usual, there is no spoon. In our practice, we missed only one concert out of eight due to illness. But, if you are still in doubt, you can buy tickets for some season tickets right before the concert in kachssa.

The most practical question. When to buy. It's better to buy right now. Because some season tickets sell out quickly and quickly disappear from sale. It is also important, when choosing a subscription, to pay attention to the venue of the concerts, so as not to come to the Tchaikovsky Hall when the concert is taking place at the Philharmonic-2 in the Olympic Village. And yes, the subscription is valid for one person, and not for a combination of an adult + a child.

On this, it seems, the musical life hacks are over, I'm going to fry a duck for lunch.

Today it is becoming fashionable to introduce children from an early age to musical culture and creativity. But, unfortunately, not all parents know exactly where to take a preschool child or almost a teenager, so as not to waste time. When can I buy a music subscription for my child? Which views will be most useful? MedAboutMe has prepared for you an overview of excellent music programs - now you can not only spend your leisure time efficiently, but also develop a special aesthetic taste in your child.

Modern music concerts contribute to the development of the child, they have a positive effect on speech, help to improve communication culture, memory, attention, and imagination.

"Emotional hunger" for a growing organism is a big problem that can degenerate into mental deprivation. It is not surprising that many children, growing up a little, try to get emotional saturation in the virtual world of the Internet. After all, they sometimes have no other options.

Musical performances are powerful tools that directly affect child development. The impressions received through the auditory canal are among the most powerful. They are able to influence emotional development, change moods and even demonstrate certain familiar moments from a different perspective.

It is musical concerts and performances that give the child a huge amount of emotions and stimuli, give a powerful auditory experience.

Subscription system for children and its advantages

A musical subscription is a whole cycle of concerts, which are united by one theme. These special programs are usually age-specific and designed with the development of children in mind.

A subscription is a great opportunity to get complete and useful information, for example, about genres or individual performers.

Among the advantages of the subscription system for children, it is worth highlighting:

• A convenient way to plan your child's leisure time in advance and save a lot of time.
• The prices for the pass are significantly understated compared to the nominal cost of the tickets. The difference is significant and can be up to 50% savings. In addition, the listener himself chooses how much he plans to spend, because prices depend on the row and place in the hall.
• The little listener can attend the season's premiere performances and the most significant concerts of the philharmonic and theaters.

Today, a huge number of philharmonic societies, conservatories, theaters and museums of musical culture operate in Moscow. Almost all institutions offer their listeners different subscriptions, among which it is important to choose an option that is really suitable for the child.

The lighting effects, video sequences, and decorations demonstrated during the concert help to relax and immerse oneself in the world of amazing music.

If a child has psychological problems and, for example, is registered with a psychiatrist, then before attending music concerts it is worth consulting a doctor.

A medical specialist will help you choose the optimal subscription that corresponds to the level of the baby's development according to the program, taking into account his psychological difficulties and the state of the nervous system.

Expert commentary

Denis Zelikson, founder of the psychological portal PosPsy, consultant psychologist

Scientific studies have repeatedly shown the positive influence of classical music on the psyche of children and adults. The easiest way to instill in children a love of music is to listen to it with them from a very young age. If there is no such practice in the family, then you can "lure" the child to the Philharmonic by letting him try to play a musical instrument himself. In order for a child to enjoy visiting musical institutions on a regular basis, basic psychological needs must be met. For example, children should understand why they are doing this and have the freedom to choose, for example, music or styles. In addition, it is important for them to have the opportunity to develop their competence, that is, to gain new knowledge about music or develop their skills in playing instruments, as well as to feel support and interest in such activities from adults.

Satisfaction of needs will inevitably lead to the appearance of an intrinsic motivation in the child, which manifests itself in the presence of interest in the process of attending a philharmonic society. In other words, the child will listen to music because he likes it, and not because of the chocolate that parents buy as a reward for visiting a musical institution. There are no special contraindications for children to visit the Philharmonic. The main thing is not to force children to go to musical institutions, so as not to discourage possible interest in music.
