Teacher: Hello guys! (the teacher plays a descending D minor triad, twice each sound)

Students: Hello! (when students answer, the teacher plays a descending D minor triad).

Teacher: We're starting the lesson! Today in the lesson we continue to get acquainted with the musical genre - dance. Tell me when do people dance?

Students: When it's a holiday, when it's fun, at matinees ...

Teacher: What dances do you know?

Students: waltz, polka ...

Teacher: Yes! And the first dance that we will meet today is polonaise . (Chopin's “Polonaise” sounds)/ Translated into Russian, the name of the dance sounds just like the word "Polish". What country do you think this dance appeared in?

Students: in Poland!

Teacher: Indeed, this dance came to us from Poland. An ancient Polish dance of a solemn character, in which only warriors-knights took part in the past. Since the 16th century, the polonaise has been known as a court dance in European countries. Polonaise is a very simple dance, it is something like a ceremonial step. Therefore, it has a second name - the dance-procession.

Teacher: And the next dance also came from Poland.

Student:

The mazurka was heard. Used to
When the thunder of the mazurkas thundered,
Everything in the huge hall trembled
The parquet cracked under the heel.

Teacher: It - mazurka ... I think that few people know where the name of this dance came from. Mazurka is a dance that came from Poland. There is a region of Mazovia, and the people living in this area were called Mazuras. The dance got its name from the name of the locals - mazurka. What is the character of a mazurka? (Chopin's “Mazurka” sounds).

Students' answers.

Teacher: And the next dance is often considered a Polish dance, although this is not true, since polka appeared in the Czech Republic. The word “Polka” in Czech means “half a step”. They dance it in pairs in a circle, moving in small and fast leaps. So, I invite all polka lovers to dance! Children perform movements as shown by the teacher. (Rachmaninoff's "Polka" sounds).

Teacher: Once upon a time they loved to dance an ancient dance minuet ... And in which country the minuet appeared, you yourself will find out now. (The teacher sings Adler's song “Minuet”).

Teacher: In which country did the minuet appear?

Students: in France.

Teacher: Absolutely correct. Minuet is a French dance characterized by a lot of bows and curtsies. (Learning a song. Stage 1 of work on penalties.)

Student:

Much has been said about this dance.
He is sung in songs and verses!
And how many dances would not have happened.
Better and prettier waltz No!

Teacher: The word “waltz” in translation from German means “spinning”, “whirling”. Indeed, when we listen to a waltz, some kind of spinning appears in our imagination. The waltz appeared a long time ago - more than 200 years ago. But to this day, he is not inferior in popularity to the new fashionable dances. Who invented the waltz? We cannot answer this question, because the waltz was invented not by one person, but by thousands. And these people lived in small towns in Germany and Austria - "landal", which means a province. It was there that the dance was born, which was called the landler. Once in the musical capital of the world - Vienna, the dance was called waltz. (Waltz from the ballet "Sleeping Beauty" sounds)... This waltz was written by the well-known Russian composer PI Tchaikovsky. P. Tchaikovsky wrote many beautiful waltzes, and we just listened to one of the waltzes. What is the character of the waltz?

Students' answers.

Teacher: I suggest you play a competition game “Who will do the waltz better?” (Children participate at will. Tchaikovsky's "Waltz" sounds)

Teacher: Well done! Guys, what “whale” is our guest today?

Students: Dance.

Teacher: What dances did we meet today?

Students: Polonaise, mazurka, polka, minuet, waltz.

Teacher: Dance opens the door to any kind of music. With the help of dance we will enter the doors of any symphony, ballet. And I want to end this lesson with the following words:

Oh dance! You are a great creation
There is nothing more beautiful in the world
Than a triumph of love and inspiration,
A delightful bouquet of ovation!
Mazurka, polonaise and polka,
The king of all dances is a good old waltz.
And the enchanting power of music
Carries and circles us in the star vortex!

Exit to the "Italian polka".

An art student gives a presentation on the history of dance.

  • It is impossible to pinpoint the period when dance became part of the culture of human society, but there is no doubt that even before the emergence of ancient civilizations, it was an important element of ceremonies, rituals, celebrations and entertainment events. There is prehistoric evidence of the presence of dance among ancient peoples, for example, images of dancing inrock dwellings of Bhimbetka (India ) and ancient Egyptian burials dating back to 3300 BC.
  • The first example of the systematic use of dance may have been the accompaniment of the legend of myths. The dance could be used to express feelings for a person of the opposite sex and was associated with a love game. Before the advent of writing, he served as one of the ways of transmitting legends. Dance poses were studied by prominent Greek sculptors with the aim of depicting feelings by means ofsculptures .
  • Dance ( Greek Χορός) was widely represented in the culture of Ancient Greece. From the Greek name for the dance comes the conceptchoreography ... Among the Greek goddesses there was a special dance goddessTerpsichore ... Religious dances performed bycoribants and bacchantes ... An important meaning of Ancient Greece was a certain secularization of dance. There were also marriage, military (collective dance with weapons), theatrical (with elements of pantomime) and even salons. Men and women danced separately.
  • With the spread of Christianity, dancing began to be perceived as a relic of paganism and was criticized. The ritual dance has practically disappeared. Dancing turns into a vile, condemned occupation: dancingSt. Vitus and dance of death XIV century ... However, the "dance revolution" begins in Europe, when dance becomes the privilege of the ruling class. Salon dance and the concept ofball where the completed view getspair dance with an indispensable gentleman and lady. The first ball is historically recorded in1385 year v Amiens ... An example of Old European dance isbranle , pavana , allemand , fandango , sardana , muisheranga ... Dance comes with the gypsiesflamenco ... In Poland, became widespreadkrakowiak .
  • V 1589 year a dance tutorial appears


Polonaise, like most historical dances, consisted of dance figures. The dancers in a certain sequence performed, going one by one, figures, which formed a dance. This philosophy of building a historical dance is most vividly reflected in the polonaise.

Basic shapes of a polonaise

One of the simplest dance figures in a polonaise is the promenade. This figure is performed in such a way that all dancing couples follow the leading couple counterclockwise. Column - this figure is called a column, since after its execution all the dancers line up in the center of the hall, forming a column. As a rule, after the column, there is the next figure in the corridor. The couples take turns converging and along the corridor go to the end of the hall. At the end of the hall, the couples disperse one after another. One pair goes to the left, the next pair to the right.

Crossbar and ladies solo

Crossbar. This figure begins with the fact that the pairs stand opposite each other in columns. After that, they begin to move towards. When couples meet, they pass one column through another. Finishing the execution of the figure, the dancers unite and continue to move. Ladies solo. This dance figure is performed in 8 measures. The initial position of the dancers: the couples stand in two lines opposite each other. After that, the ladies begin to move towards another partner, who stands with the lady opposite her. The movement continues until the two girls meet each other. Then they reach the gentleman standing opposite and go around him counterclockwise. Further, the lady also returns to her partner in the same way.

Another figure of historical dance has been known to us for a long time. It's called the lady's round. It is one of the most easily performed polonaise figures. The man kneels down and raises his hand. The girl takes him by the raised hand and goes around him four times counterclockwise.

Instructions

The basis of any dance is a step. The pitch of the polonaise gives it a special solemnity. Imagine which side of you your partner will be on. The leg that is closer to him when you are standing next to him is called the inner leg. At the first step, it will be the reference. Raise the outside leg and bring it forward, squatting slightly on the support leg. The outer leg is placed on the toe. The second step is done with the inside leg without any squat, but it is also carried over to the toe. The third step is with the outside leg on a full foot.

The second "cycle" begins with the inner leg. The support is external, and it is necessary to sit down on it. In the same way as in the first case, the leg is brought forward to the toe. The second step is also done on the toe, the third - on a full foot.

After you master the steps and, most importantly, learn how to perform them to the music, learn the basic constructions. It is better to do this with a partner or even a group, because there are many rearrangements in the polonaise. Try to do the promenade together. Pick a lead pair that moves in a counterclockwise circle. All other couples follow her. Pay particular attention to the position of your hands. Towards the end of the promenade, the dancers form a column, passing through the middle of the hall or clearing.

Dance figures can be announced, as was often done at balls. Announce a corridor. The first couple, turn to face the rest of the dancers and walk along the center of the column to the end of the hall. Then the second pair does the same, then the third, and so on until all the participants have passed. Couples at the end of the hall move through one to the left and right.

After the corridor, the pairs form two columns on the sides of the hall. The next basic shape is the crossbar. Couples line up in columns that begin to move towards. Participants pass into the intervals of the oncoming column. After that, the dancers again become pairs with the same partners and continue to move, then again line up in two lines.

Then the ladies' solo begins. The partner moves to the other lady standing opposite to the partner, who at this time also goes to another gentleman. The solo continues until the two ladies meet. They go to the gentleman standing opposite them and walk around him counterclockwise, after which they all return to their pairs. Another figure - the ladies bypass the gentlemen. The partner kneels down and raises his hand. The partner bypasses him four times. Like most polonaise movements, this is performed counterclockwise.
