7 Appendix 2 Main characteristics and requirements for the genre directions of the festival of the "Marks relay" Methodical recommendations for the City Festival of Children's and Youth Creativity "Frames of Arts 2017" Vocal Genre (academic vocals, pop vocals, jazz, songs with folk oppressions in modern processing, rock - Manufacture, author's song) Academic vocals (or classic vocals) differs markedly from jazz or pop design equipment. Today, classic vocals are performed in the chamber vocal music genre, in Opera, Chapel, Academic Choir, with a symphony orchestra. However, some pop singers work in the academic manner. Academic singing is such a manner of execution that suggests that the singer owns a large number of different skills, such as: proper breathing, proper sounding (singing on the support, the use of resonators, singing dome and much more), clear diction and articulation, proper intonation and the ability to switch between registers; The artistry, emotionality and expressiveness of execution are also necessary. Distinctive signs of academic vocals Academic vocals do not imply the use of microphone and other reinforcing equipment. A vocalist thanks to complete control over their voice is able to voice the hall, without merging and without entering into confrontation with the orchestra. The competent academic vocalist distinguishes the ability to sing in a wide voice range and the ability to qualitatively reproduce the most complicated material in the musical meaning. At the same time, the slightest extra charges are not allowed: tremologists, sips, wheezing and other sound defects. Academic vocal The desire for an ideal singing manner: The singer reaches the volumetric pure voice sound. A musician working in classical technique seizes the widest palette of means of musical, vocal, artistic expressiveness. The singer is capable of reproducing the most subtle and transparent tones, and to issue extremely bright expressive compositions. At the same time, regardless of the gamma of the feelings invested in the song, it turns out harmonious, beautiful and aesthetically perfect. Pop vocals This is a special kind of modern vocal art, which combines many styles and directions, creates a rich palette of images. Pop singing This is such a manner of execution that suggests a singer's communication with the auditorium through a song created by a song created, not only through the melody and text, but also expressive movement, bright emotionality, artistry. Pop vocals differs from academic more open and more natural sound. However, singing skills, the correct position and support of the sound are also needed in the pop vocal, as in the academic. Jazz vocals, first of all, implies the perfect feeling of rhythm and harmony, as well as voice mobility and the ability to improvise. In jazz singing it is necessary to feel the form of a work, be able to present our understanding of the melodic theme,

8 Modifying it, but without leaving the necessary harmony. An important partnership of musicians, the ability to improvise on the go.

Various directions of modern youth culture (hip-hop, rap, Soul, R & B, Bitbox, Brake Dance, etc.) Hip-Hop (eng. Hip-Hop) Music genre. The term "hip-hop" is defined as a combination of two words HIP (Hurray) and Hop (jump). Hip-hop has a large number of directions: from enough "light" genres, such as pop rap, to aggressive hardcore rap, horroror. The content of songs varies from light and relaxed, like memories of "old good times", before raising social problems. The origins of hip-hop lie in funky, which is the main "progenitor" of this direction. However, the effect on the formation of hip-hop was also provided by other genres of rhythm-nblyuses, soul, jazz, reggae. Very often, the terms "hip-hop" and "rap" are used as synonyms, which is not correct. Rap is one of the main elements of the style of hip-hop music. Rap is a cleaner performance of poems to rhythmic music that can be used not only hip-hop by performers, but also by representatives of other genres of modern rhythm-n-blues, pop music, rapcra, nu-metal, raggamafin; At the same time, there are alternative hip-hop performers who do not use vocals in their records.

Despite the fact that the reduction of R & B produces associations with rhythm-nblyuz music, this abbreviation is used to determine the new style of African American music, which appeared after the Disco in the 1980s. Modern Arend Bi combines the elements of the cooler, Funka, New Jack Swing, Hip-hop and dance music. Some sources define the Art End-bi style as modern city music.

Characteristic emotional, well-felt, ecstatic, sometimes exalted, "spiritual" vocal manner Soul-music took from the tradition of spiritual chants of the states and Spirichels, as well as jazz vocal improvisation. In the 1960s, Soul becomes the most popular direction of Negro music. By this time, blues and rhythm end-blues, being largely borrowed and adapted white performers of rock and roll and blues-rock, were perceived as interracial genres, and African Americans began to identify themselves through soul music. Bitbox or bitboxing is the art of creating melodies with the help of voice apparatus and articulation by the RTO organs. At the same time, modern bitboxing technique

14 also includes many other areas. Most often, bitboxing is used as an accompaniment in hip-hop compositions. Bitbox is considered the fifth element of hip-hop culture. Break Dance (Break-Dance or B-Boying) Street dance, one of the flows of hip-hop culture and inside it is called "Breaking" (Breaking, English) originated in the late 1960s (Africa, Bambiata). Today, two main types of this dance are distinguished: the lower extreme dancer performs, mainly acrobatic and power tricks on the floor; The upper break-dance is based on the body of the body: this is a fantastic movement of the body in space and fixes, which at first glance contradict all the laws of physics and gravity. All dance Breeking came from New York from the south of Bronx. The term "Breakdancing" (Breakdancing) was created by musical journalists for the convenience of perception by the averages, since in English the word Breaking is different concepts and is related to different cultures. For the same reason (for identifying identification), the term "B-boying" began to use the Hip Hop environment, which comes from the word B.Boy (Break-Boy). It is believed that as a separate dance he formed by 1973. Artistic reading (or expressive reading) Artistic reading (or expressive reading) The type of art, the essence of which lies in the creative embodiment of the literary work in an effective sounding word. Imagine the work in the Word means to cause listeners in the imagination of listeners by the author of life in all its completeness and diversity, reveal the attitude of the artist to the depicted, pass the features of the artistic form, the author's style. The ultimate goal of the reader in accordance with his interpretation to reveal the listening ideological essence of the work, expressively convey to the listener the content of the work, help them to see, feel and evaluate the phenomenon shown in it as it sees, is experiencing and assesses them. Expressive reading has two sides: penetration into the meaning of the executable work, the transfer of the performing penetration to students. K.S. Stanislavsky taught: "Take the book with a book, a pencil and place your speech thaws. Click on this ear, eye and hand. Marking of speech clocks and reading on them is necessary because they are forced to analyze and delve into their essence. I do not understand it, you will not say correctly phrases. The habit of talking on the clocks will make your speech not only slim in the form, understandable for transmission, but also deep in content, as it is impossible to make you constantly think about what you say ", and you can't order the feeling, but it is necessary to achieve it in other ways Such a psychological situation should appear, which makes it possible to arise the emotional attitude of a person to a certain circle of phenomena, and this sampled emotional attitude will be experienced. " Principles of work on the text (according to Stanislavsky): Studying text, maximum briefing in its ideological and art content; social orientation, effectiveness of expressive reading; Good understanding of "tasks", which should be put in front of the listener when reading the text.

15 Reading out loud addressed to listeners. To perceive reading, it is necessary that the listeners understand what they read. Understanding is due to the presence of certain knowledge, a certain experience. The teacher must reckon with age and the development of his students.
