The first part of the graduation thesis of pop music: On the influence of pop music on music education in China.
Pop music is a kind of music form which is formed in a certain background and geographical environment, widely circulated among the public, easy to understand and free in form. With the mass media as the medium, it has been widely spread, and its content mostly reflects the love between men and women, with short structure, simple tunes and relatively simple emotions. Representative singers such as Jay Chou and Wang Leehom. These pop music are widely circulated among teenagers. Teenagers are under the pressure of study and work for a long time, and their accumulated emotions cannot be released. Pop music provides a way for teenagers to vent their emotions and show their personality to a certain extent, so it is enthusiastically sought after by teenagers. Some students even ask music teachers to teach pop songs in music classes. In this case, if our music education still arbitrarily prevents pop music from entering the classroom as before, without tolerant introduction and scientific guidance, it will undoubtedly hinder the development of music education.
First, the influence of pop music on music education in China
(A) the impact of pop music on young people
It can be said that the post-80s and post-90s all grew up with the company of pop music. Pop music has a strong flavor of the times, simple and straightforward lyrics and simple emotions, which aroused the emotions of teenagers. Especially some love songs, can cater to teenagers' hazy desire for love. In addition, pop music has simple melody, narrow range and changeable rhythm, so teenagers can easily sing it. In terms of content, some pop music has a positive impact on teenagers. Some popular songs, such as Young Friends Meet and Spring in the Frontier is Clear and Pure, reflect people's pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty and give people spiritual comfort. Another example is the campus ballad "Childhood", "Country Road" and "Grandma's Penghu Bay" in Taiwan Province Province. Their feelings are sincere and natural, and their forms are free and lively, which conforms to the age characteristics of teenagers and writes their unique childlike feelings. However, some popular songs are vulgar in content and contain a lot of violent and pornographic information, which distorts teenagers' understanding of the world and has a bad influence on teenagers.
(B) the impact of pop music on music education
This is mainly manifested in the influence of pop music on music aesthetic psychology teaching and music appreciation teaching. First of all, one of the important reasons why pop music can be popular is rooted in the secularization of pop music aesthetic psychology. With the continuous development of market economy and the promotion of economic interests, songs have changed from the original functions of propaganda, infection and praise to entertainment functions. Elegant aesthetic taste is gradually replaced by secular aesthetic psychology, and all kinds of secular things are openly put on the stage in a fashionable way in order to pursue the greatest commercial interests. Pop music created in this environment directly affects the secularization of aesthetic psychology in music education; Secondly, pop music has become an important part of music, so some excellent pop music tracks have been selected for music appreciation teaching. However, because the pop music team is not pure and contains many things that are not elegant, it lowers the students' music appreciation level to some extent.
Second, how to introduce pop music into music education
(A) the correct attitude towards pop music
Pop music is also a form of music, but it has different grades. Therefore, we should treat pop music dialectically and attach importance to its positive and negative effects. The positive side is to use its unique entertainment function to dispel the pressure and bad emotions of teenagers in life and emotion, adjust their tired nerves and spirits, and achieve the purpose of comfort. Being far away from art, singing pop songs has become a self-behavior, a part of people's daily life, and enriched people's daily life. For teenagers, pop music is also a powerful way for them to show themselves and show their individuality, so they like to use pop music to tell their complicated moods and hazy dreams, which is also good. But its negative side can not be ignored. Due to the infiltration of commercial interests, some popular songs are vulgar in content, without artistry and aesthetics, which affects the correct values of teenagers to some extent. Therefore, we should keep the positive side and guide teenagers to correctly understand and avoid the negative side.
(B) to guide pop music into the music education classroom
In the process of pop music entering the music classroom, teachers must take good care of it and choose those positive pop songs as classroom teaching items. Using Internet, MP3, CD and other multimedia teaching tools, some popular songs suitable for students to enjoy are played, which not only meets students' music needs, but also achieves the purpose of music teaching. In addition, we can also appreciate the pop music in a certain period, so that students can analyze and discuss and summarize the characteristics and styles of pop music in this period, thus deepening their understanding of music knowledge. In addition to learning music knowledge, music education should also be practiced. At this time, pop music is the best practice material. Teachers can lead students to hold music competitions, carry out music stage and other activities to stimulate students' interest in singing and so on.
(C) improve the quality and accomplishment of music teachers
First of all, a teacher should have a passion for music education, which makes him consciously and automatically protect every student's interest and enthusiasm in music. Whether students like pop music or other types of music, they can give appropriate guidance instead of being rude. Secondly, improve the knowledge structure of music teachers. No matter what kind of knowledge is unchangeable, music teachers should constantly learn new knowledge and establish the concept of lifelong learning. Most importantly, due to the diversity of students' music knowledge sources, the role of teachers should be changed to a certain extent, from the past knowledge giver to the knowledge developer and guide, encouraging and guiding students to explore and develop new music knowledge and actively practice it.
The second part of the graduation thesis of pop music: an analysis of pop music articulation
Popular vocal music singing is the art of emotional expression. In pop music singing, emotion is an important part of expressing songs, and articulation is the key to expressing feelings. Lyrics are used to express the central idea of pop songs, which is different from other artistic expressions. The expression of vocal music art needs stricter words. Popular songs can not only express their feelings through singing, but also express people's feelings more vividly through lyrics combined with sound. The expression of words in pop music singing directly affects the expression of feelings.
1 China Pop Music and Pronunciation
1. 1 Chinese pop songs
Chinese pop music is widely sung because of its delicate lyrics, beautiful melody and closer to people's hearts. And it thrives in China because the singing methods are diverse and not particular. China pop music has a unique idea and quality, and it is a kind of personality beauty. It has certain charm and aesthetic value in the field of art. The introduction of pop music into China is a subversive change, which has a profound influence on China's traditional musical thinking. It indirectly changed people's way of life, way of thinking and moral concept, and it greatly changed the direction of China's music. The influence of pop songs is more in line with people's emotions and psychology. Only by combining melody, lyrics and singer's singing skills can we get widely sung works. After the reform and opening up, pop music has become more public and individual. China's traditional culture pays attention to etiquette, and everything should be done according to the rules. However, the appearance of pop music broke this stereotype. Pop entertainment is the symbol of pop music, and self-innovation is the characteristic of China pop music.
1.2 clarity of pop songs
Since ancient times, people have always attached great importance to the language cohesion of lyrics, and the China language has strict requirements on articulation. In China, many vocalists, educators and professional researchers have conducted in-depth research on the articulation of lyrics in singing. As an important part of vocal music singing, the accurate use of language and the perfect coordination of melody can leave a rich and profound impression on the audience. Vocal music has many skills, and the accuracy of articulation is the main line of musical singing. In China, Mr. Ma published Forty Years of Chorus Training, which clearly pointed out? Clear pronunciation and clear articulation can improve the sound quality, and through good articulation, we can overcome bad pronunciation habits and establish good pronunciation habits? In the singing of a piece of music, the basis of emotional expression is to read words, and the essential basis of singing is to pronounce words accurately and clearly. Singers can't express accurately, let alone impress people, if they don't master language skills when facing a work containing emotions. If a singer can't hear the lyrics clearly, he can't express his feelings or impress the audience.
2 Analysis of the popular song "Maybe Tomorrow"
2. 1 Lyrics clarity analysis
Maybe Tomorrow is May's music album. Maybe tomorrow's lyrics are gorgeous. Maybe tomorrow's song can represent the whole album. This song expresses all the ideas of the author. When a person is most lonely, we always look forward to those days when someone is with us. But now the feeling of loneliness has caused a strong psychological gap. Martin's music puts elements of blues and soul music into it, making the song sound sadder and writing the feeling of pursuing tomorrow on a nail. Of all a-mei's songs, this one may be one of tomorrow's masterpieces. The sea is endless/I can't see where the end point is/it's deep and attractive/my heart starts from the first paragraph? The sea, as far as the eye can see? In the process of singing? Sea? As the first word of a song, it should be a combination of fiction and reality, and the sea is composed of three letters, the first (initial) H, the abdomen (middle letter) A passing by, the suffix I returning, the whole prefix is clear, and the suffix is tightened and gently introduced? As far as the eye can see? The pronunciation of these words focuses on I, from I to I, and then how many words? Deep and charming, my heart? Ending with n, I will bite more tightly, and N will be nasalized more. These two sounds are easier to bite in Chinese letters. I float in the waves/love sometimes rises and falls/pushes me forward/every day is the same? I am in the waves. Me? Words can rhyme at the end? Are you online? On I, the second sentence is also I, and the fourth sentence of the third sentence is classified as N. From here, we can see that in the lyrics of China pop music works, prefixes and suffixes echo each other, and the endings between paragraphs also echo, so the lyrics often rhyme, and each song will have a key sound. The key sounds of Maybe Tomorrow are I and N, so the focus of our training should gradually be on these two sounds. Once I was addicted to enjoyment/I had nowhere to get rid of it in the end/the sadder I was, the happier I was/the more I wanted to be happy, the more lonely I was. From the beginning to the end, the focus of the transition to the climax is different. Lyrics are mainly collected on O, and Chinese characters pay attention to rhyme, so most lyrics are very neat and symmetrical. Maybe tomorrow/no one/walk with me/ebb and flow/maybe tomorrow/and you/accompany me to start/until the end/the sea is endless/I am at the climax of the whole song in the waves. When singing, you must pay attention to clear articulation, and pronounce N, I and O as the end of the whole song to neutralize the previous voice. It's relatively easy to be articulate, but don't be too dead. Push it out.
2.2 Pronunciation and Breathing Analysis
Only when the articulation and breath are in complete harmony can the song be full of tension and appeal, that is, it should be completely relaxed and opened. Personally, I prefer to scream when people are stimulated. You will find that while screaming, your body is working hard, your abdominal muscles will be tight, and your voice will be penetrating. And music singing should also find such a feeling, but learn to control the coordination of breath and articulation. The pronunciation of pop music is in the mouth, and sometimes the lyrics of pop music are spoken. Breath speaks, up and down, and coordinate with each other. Breath is mixed with words, and words contain breath. Come on, they are like water and fish. Fish cannot live without water, and water cannot live without fish. Chinese characters are superstructure, and they come from the spout, just like the bow and chord of erhu. Only by pulling the strings can the desired sound be produced. These two things are the foundation of singing, and then timbre, emotion and skill will be the finishing touch. The songs sung will reach people's hearts and express their feelings. This is the relationship between articulation and breath.
3 Conclusion
In popular singing, the correct singing of songs will be the correct pronunciation, and there is no difference between vocal articulation and pure sealing sound, because the final letters will still be transmitted through the cavity of * * *, and pronunciation and articulation are very important in popular singing. Beautiful music is absolutely indispensable to clear pronunciation, which will play a key role in songs. Sound practice is inseparable from correct pronunciation, which is helpful to the sound of * * *. Hugo once thought? In the process of voice training, the singer's reading aloud is a very important factor, including a skill of vocalization through language forms, which is also a prerequisite for singing songs in any language. ? If you don't master skilled language skills, it will be very laborious to integrate thoughts and feelings, and it will not impress people. Such a song will fail, and music that can't impress the audience is useless. We must strengthen this aspect and highlight the combination of music and literature.
The third part of the graduation thesis of pop music: music teaching in senior high school under the background of pop music culture.
Firstly, it analyzes the current situation of high school students' music learning under the background of pop music culture.
We know that music is not just pop songs and pop music. In the modern society with developed information and network, pop music is pouring into the campus. How to face up to pop music is the most realistic problem that every teacher must face. Students only like pop music, which will inevitably lead to malnutrition; Ignoring pop music will lead to a sense of distance between teachers and students, both of which are not conducive to effective classroom teaching. Therefore, in the high school music classroom teaching, how to adjust the relationship between them is the most important. "Music Curriculum Standard for Ordinary Senior High School (Experiment)" puts forward some teaching ideas, such as taking aesthetics as the core, taking hobbies as the driving force, facing all students, paying attention to personality development, attaching importance to music practice and enhancing innovation consciousness. Therefore, our front-line music teachers must start from students' interests, pay more attention to the combination of pop music, serious music and traditional music teaching, rationally develop and utilize pop music, keep students' love for music, and let students absorb music and grow up in a balanced way.
Second, reasonably introduce pop music into high school music teaching.
(A) the use of pop music to open the door to high school music teaching
In high school music teaching, students generally believe that pop music is easy to understand and close to life, which can not only meet students' emotional needs, but also the fashion dress of stars is their beautiful pursuit. In contrast, the selection of serious music in high school music textbooks is boring and has a low acceptance of teachers' teaching methods. Therefore, students' interest cannot be stimulated and classroom teaching is inefficient. On the contrary, it is difficult for teachers to really devote themselves to high school music teaching. High school students not only like pop music very much, but some students even have a very enthusiastic pursuit of it. For example, in the teaching of electroacoustic knowledge, when teachers guide students to understand what electroacoustic is, they can play a piece of jazz in class, thus starting electroacoustic teaching. One or two classes can be arranged to popularize the types and forms of music to students, and a three-dimensional musical knowledge framework and sense of harmony can be established in students' minds, so that they will not be so unfamiliar when they are exposed to different kinds of music. When teaching jazz, you can give students an assignment before they go home, use the internet to query jazz information, make a PPT by yourself, and show your works to other students in the next music class to enhance students' interest in learning.
Integrate serious music, traditional music and pop music into classroom teaching.
With the continuous development of music education in China in recent years, the form of music education has also undergone thorough changes. Traditional music teaching is dominated by serious music, and pop music accounts for a small part or even no pop music teaching. This is inseparable from China's long-standing teaching philosophy and teaching system. Teachers habitually believe that pop music contains many factors that are not conducive to the healthy growth of students, and this prejudice has always prevented pop music from entering high school music classes. Since the end of last century, music teachers in China began to pay enough attention to pop music, and began to realize the role of pop music in high school music teaching. By introducing the teaching content of pop music into the classroom, teachers can not only establish a relaxed and interesting learning environment for students in the music classroom, but also help students absorb knowledge quickly and grow up healthily. Organic integration of pop music into high school music classes can significantly enhance students' acceptance of music knowledge, which is the mainstream of current music teaching development.
Attention should be paid to the introduction of pop music into the classroom, and teachers should not blindly reduce the course time of serious music according to students' preferences, which leads to students' narrow understanding of music content. Serious music and traditional music are important components of human civilization, the thinking habits of a country and a nation, and the crystallization of musical ideology. Our high school music teachers not only undertake the task of teaching and educating people, but also carry the mission of inheriting history and culture. Therefore, in the teaching work, it is very important to explore the artistic value of classical music works in addition to stimulating students' interest with pop music.
Third, for high school students? Idol worship? Phenomenon is the enlightenment of reason and the education of emotion.
High school students need to identify their self-worth and seek self-development through their identification and attachment to idols. There are many talented idol stars in pop music. They can compose music, write lyrics, dance and even direct. In addition, media hype and commercial packaging often beautify these characters and deepen high school students' yearning for them. It is also important to pay attention to strengthening humanistic consciousness and cultural connotation, and to give high school students rational enlightenment and emotional education with true, rich and vivid personality charm. Like Norwegians? After 80? Genius musician Alexander? Rebecca is a new star in Nordic music. His parents are both classical musicians. Influenced by family music, he plays the violin very well, and the piano is comparable to it. Through practice, I think high school students should not deliberately avoid it? Idol? Scandals and stories of idol failure often have particularly beneficial enlightenment to high school students, and can play a role? Alternative experience? Educational achievements. Grasping these characteristics of high school students, we can interact with them with ease in teaching, thus producing * * * sounds.
Four. conclusion
To implement the music teaching reform in senior high school, we must excavate and update the teaching methods, so that students can really learn what they want to learn. Teachers should see the current situation of high school teaching, understand the importance of pop music to high school music teaching, and use pop music as material to carry out teaching in the classroom, which can greatly enhance the richness of high school music lessons, stimulate students' interest in learning and improve teaching quality. This is the original intention of high school music teaching reform.
