Реферат: English Themes - Theatre (Иностранные языки)
I describe my last visit to the theatre
My last visit to the theatre was visiting the Bolshoi Theatre. It was
wonderfully.
I listened …’s opera “Stone Guest”. I’d like to tell you something
about it.
My seat (place) was in the stalls (партер). I took the opera-glasses
for better visibility. It was opera in two acts and lasted about 2 hours.
The conductor was national actor of (РСФР) Eriler. The actor who played the
part of Don Juan was А. Кузнецов, the part of Leporello А. Эйзен, and
actress who played the part of Laura was Т. Синявская. Among the
outstanding Russian opera classics, probably no other production called
forth such arguments and divergence of views as Dargomyzhsky’s “Stone
Guest”.
It was not accidental that … was attracted by this “small tragedy” of
Pushkin. He often turned to Pushkin’s poetry in his creative work. About
twenty romances were based on it.
But in his early opera, D… didn’t leave Pushkinscy’s text untouched.
He introduced a number of changes dictated by his musical-dramatically
conception. To solve the innovative task that he set for himself in “Stone
Guest”, he dared to undertake only on the peak of his creative career.
“Stone Guest” was one of the Pushkin’s remarkable works of poetic games.
Belinski called this tragedy “the richest, magnificent diamond” in the
poet’s crown.
The complex psychological content was embodied by Pushkin in a
comparatively compact and ideally finished form. Every detail is weighty,
every word and every intonation is fuel of meaning. To express all this in
music is a difficult, but thankful task. I want to advice you to listen the
opera “Stone Guest”.
Реферат на тему: English Topics
Language and Music.
Language and music. Both of these terms play a great role in peoples’
life. Let’s give definitions of these terms:
Language is human speech, either spoken or written. It comes from the
Latin word “lingua”, meaning tongue, and a language still is often called a
tongue.
Music is sound arranged into pleasing or interesting patterns. It forms
an important part of many cultural and social activities.
What are the common between these two different words? Well, at first,
music as the language has their own symbols. In language it is phonemes (in
oral speech) or morphemes (in written speech) and in music it is tone
(sound) or note.
In a majority, any language have an alphabet. Western musicians name
the tones of a scale with the first eight letters: A, B, C, D, E, F, G and
H (Russian musicians usually name them as Do (Ut), Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La and
Si).
If the language is a way of communication between people, music is a
language of music instruments. As language has its own styles (for example,
publicistic style (artistic), informational style, declamatory style
(oratorial), etcetera), music has such music styles as classical, folklore,
popular.
Music is sounded due to musical instruments and the peoples who play on
its.
The same phoneme may be writing down by the various combinations of
letters. For example, [f] – “f”, “ph”, “ff” .
In music the same sound may have various names; E = F flat, G = F
double sharp = A double flat.
Aside from all this, language and music give people opportunities to
express their feeling, emotions and ideas.
But there are some difference between these terms. The language of
music is one for everybody and people create music when they are impressed
by happiness, grief, melancholy, love, etc. When people do researches,
invent, philosophize, etc. they create new designations, symbols, words.
Thus due to music we can express our emotions and feelings more
brilliant and colorful. Due to language we can express our thoughts, views,
ideas more exactly.
