Training Future Music Teachers for the Formation of Intonation Hearing in Younger School Children
The purpose of the article is to train future music teachers from the perspective of considering the expediency of using a special series of tasks within the framework of pedagogical practice aimed at developing intonational hearing in younger students. To achieve this goal, the following problems were solved: accumulation of intonation-auditory experience in children; developing their analytical skills in the educational process; development of the ability to identify the similarities and differences between speech and musical intonations. The hypothesis of the study is based on the assumption that the development of intonational hearing in younger schoolchildren will be effective if the training of future music teachers will be based on their study of intonational musical theories and the use of the main provisions of these theories in practice. The research methods of this work are systematization and generalization of theoretical and practical aspects of domestic intonation musical theories. The achieved results: the use of a specially developed series of tasks within the framework of pedagogical practice made it possible to activate the work of students, to develop our ability to penetrate into emotional-figurative content, to analyze the means of musical expression from the standpoint of intonation potential.
