She is both invisible and weightless,
And we carry it in our blood.
Melody of worldwide languor,
Like salt in water, it is dissolved in everything...

Evgeniy Vinokurov

There are many cheerful melodies in the world, born in moments of joy or on holidays. Even among the serenades - mostly sad and thoughtful - one can find cheerful and moving melodies, full of charm and optimism (optimism - cheerfulness, cheerfulness).

Who is not familiar with the charming and graceful (graceful - graceful, slender) “Little Night Serenade” by W. A. ​​Mozart, the melody of which is full of light and charm of a festive night!

In 18th-century Vienna, it was customary to organize small night concerts under the windows of the person they wanted to pay attention to. Of course, the meaning of the music performed in his honor was not at all lyrical and intimate, as in a love serenade, but rather funny and slightly mischievous. Several people took part in such a night concert - after all, joy unites people!

To perform Mozart's serenade, a string orchestra was required - a collection of virtuoso and expressive instruments that sang so magically in the silence of the Viennese night.

The melody of “A Little Night Serenade” captivates with its subtlety and grace. Its sounds bring to life the image of old Vienna, an unusually musical city, where wonderful music could be heard day and night. The ease and dexterity of the presentation emphasizes that this is not a dramatic story, but nothing more than a light-hearted, charming musical joke.

Fascinated by the bright Mozart melodies, the Russian singer F. Chaliapin expressed his attitude towards the great Viennese classic: “You go into a house, simple, without unnecessary decorations, cozy, large windows, a sea of ​​light, greenery all around, everything is welcoming, and you are greeted by a hospitable owner, sits you down, and you feel so good that you don’t want to leave. This is Mozart."

These sincere words reflect only one side of Mozart’s music - the one that is associated with the brightest images and moods. But, perhaps, in the entire centuries-old history of music you will not find a composer whose melodies would be only joyful and harmonious.

And this is understandable: after all, life is never only bright, only clear; losses and disappointments, mistakes and delusions are inevitable in it. In it, a person is not only busy with ordinary things - he goes to kindergarten or to school, playing sports or playing on the computer. In addition to all this, he asks many questions, trying to understand himself, his life and his place in the world around him. He thinks not only about where to go on vacation or how to celebrate a birthday, but also about what constitutes more important and serious problems - problems of good and evil, love and hate, life and death.

It is in art that the feelings and thoughts by which a person lives most clearly manifest themselves. And therefore one should not be surprised when the same Mozart who wrote “A Little Night Serenade”, the same Mozart whom the composer A. Rubinstein called Helios - the sun god of music, about whom he exclaimed: “Eternal sunlight V music - name Mozart for you! - creates one of the most mournful works in all world art - his Requiem.

The dying composer, who devoted the last months of his life to this work, wrote about it in one of his letters: “Before me is my funeral (funeral - funeral) song. I can’t leave it unfinished.”

“Requiem” is the composer’s last work and one of the most inspired and profound musical creations of the 15th century...
Mozart received the order to write the Requiem (funeral mass) in July 1791. The customer, a man in a dark cloak unknown to the composer, did not want to reveal his name, but paid the promised fee with great care.
Subsequently, many years after Mozart's death, it turned out that the mysterious stranger was the manager of a certain Count Walseg, a music lover and amateur musician. In an effort to be known as a composer, the count bought other people's works, copied them by hand and passed them off as his own. He did the same with the Requiem, which in 1793 was performed as a work by Count Walseg in memory of his late wife. When in early XIX century, a message appeared in the press about the upcoming publication of Mozart’s “Requiem”, the indignant count demanded compensation from the composer’s widow.”
Mozart's "Requiem" is written on the traditional Latin text of the Catholic funeral service, which developed in the distant Middle Ages. The content of the text is a prayer... for the granting of eternal peace to the dead, mystical paintings doomsday, the image of God - formidable and merciful, punishing and forgiving.
This canonized text served Mozart only as a canvas along which his creative thought rushed. The composer's genius rose above church canons. Not a funeral mass - Mozart created an invaluable monument to his era of great philosophers, revolutionaries, musicians... His “Requiem” is a deep and wise tragic poem about life and death, about the fate of the individual and all humanity; this is an emotional, touching confession human soul, living between despair and hope, a true story about her doubts and fears. And what is especially important is that in Mozart’s music, next to religious humility, with a readiness to appear before the “highest court,” a courageous, passionate protest and rejection of death bubbles up.
That's why Catholic Church was very reluctant to allow the performance of Mozart’s “Requiem” in her services, which is why it became primarily the property of the concert stage and enjoys incomparable popularity today.

The Requiem was ordered from Mozart by a stranger dressed all in black, who one day knocked on the composer's house and handed over this order as an order from a very important person. Mozart set to work with enthusiasm, while his illness was already sapping his strength.

Pushkin conveyed Mozart’s state of mind during the period of work on the Requiem with enormous dramatic force in the small tragedy “Mozart and Salieri.” This is how the composer spoke about his worries shortly before his death.

Gives me no rest day and night
My black man. Follow me everywhere
He chases like a shadow. And now
It seems to me that he himself is with us - the third
Is sitting…

The popular legend that the composer was poisoned by his rival Antonio Salieri is certainly unfounded.

Mozart did not have time to complete his Requiem. After the death of the composer, the unfinished sections were completed by his student F. Zyusmayr, who was initiated by Mozart into the plan of the entire work.

Is it not in these largely tragic circumstances of the creation of the Requiem that its incomprehensible depth and power are contained, embodying the last will of a great soul, already covered in the breath of eternity?

Mozart stopped at the beginning of "Lacrimosa", he could no longer continue. In this part, which is part of the climax zone of the composition, after the anger, horror, and darkness of the previous parts, a state of sublime lyrical sorrow sets in.

The melody “Lacrimosa” (“Teary Day”) is based on the intonation of sighing and crying, at the same time demonstrating an example of deep sincerity and noble restraint of feeling. The extraordinary sincerity and beauty of this music made it widely popular.

Questions and tasks:

1. What moods does W. A. ​​Mozart’s “Little Night Serenade” convey? Why do you think time has no power over this music, why do both adults and children listen to it with pleasure at all times?
2. What intonations are heard in “Lacrimosa” from “Requiem” by W. A. ​​Mozart?
3. Think about it: “A Little Night Serenade” and “Requiem” were written by the same composer. Why do you think they are so different?
4. Give examples of different works by the same author (from the field of literature or painting) that would be distinguished by their contrasting character.

For my joys, for my sorrows and losses,

According to the eternal voice of Your law.

Today we will meet a new composer, whose name has never been heard in our class.

This Italian composer Giovanni Batista Pergolesi. 1710-1736

(teacher talks about the composer)

And the work is called “STABAT MATER”, WHICH MEANS “The grieving mother stood”

The genre of this work is CANTATA

Let's remember what a cantata is.

The word is Italian, translated saptare - to sing.

This is a multi-movement work for choir, orchestra and soloists.

For Pergolesi, this is a chamber work, since the cantata was written for a women's (children's) choir, string quartet, double bass and organ.

It has 13 parts.

Part 1 of the cantata is associated with the mournful, tragic image of the mother of Jesus Christ - the Virgin Mary, standing in front of the body of her son crucified on the cross.

Now we will listen to part 1.

Determine the nature of the music, its structure, mode, etc.

Let's listen to part 1.

Analysis of the listened part 1: The feeling of a leisurely step is conveyed by the measured tread of the bass. Sighs can be heard in the sound of the strings. The minor scale adds a touch of tragedy.

The vocal part contains a melodious melody with mournful intonations.

(If time permits, you can listen to the 13th part of “Amen”, where students will hear the polyphonic composition of music)

Tell me, with what famous work Western European music can be compared to the music of Pergolesi. Of course Mozart's Requiem.

Let's remember what a requiem is.

Verbatim - peace, funeral music in honor of the dead.

Listen to part 7 of Lacrimosa “Tearful”

What these two works have in common is the image of grief and sadness.

Remember how Mozart composed the REQUIEM, read Pushkin’s lines from the poem “Mozart and Salieri” and a letter to his brother.

Now take a look at the reproductions of paintings by Italian artists - Michelangelo - Pietà and Maillol - Sorrow.

What do music and painting have in common?

Theme of tragedy, grief.

And now it’s time for us to turn to song – or rather to prayer, as a genre of vocal music.

What is prayer - a spiritual song, a conversation with God.

How should one perform the prayer? (children answer)

Let's remember “Prayer” by Bulat Okudzhava.

Let's listen to the fragment.

Then vocal and choral work. (dynamics, clear diction, etc.)

And so let's summarize the lesson.

The teacher pays attention to the tasks of the lesson.

Have we completed all the objectives of the lesson?

Conclusion: Composers Pergolesi and Mozart, each in their own way (in works of various genres), embody the world of human experiences - mental turmoil, peaceful peace, the depth of human grief and suffering.

The lesson is over. Thanks to all.
