Conducting lessons with the performance of musical instruments in preschool educational institutions

Musical education of preschoolers is carried out within the framework of the educational area "Artistic and aesthetic" and meets the requirements of the State Educational Standard. The purpose of musical activity in a modern kindergarten is to familiarize children with art through the comprehensive development of physical and psycho-emotional qualities in accordance with the age and individual characteristics of the pupils.

The foundations of musical culture are laid in early childhood. It is in the preschool age that the standards of beauty, spirituality are formed, knowledge is acquired, on which the subsequent aesthetic perception of art and the surrounding world depends.

The world of musical instruments is rich and varied. And children do not always have the opportunity to hear their sound "live" at home. Most often they hear music in audio recordings. Therefore, the music director of the kindergarten is faced with the task of introducing preschoolers to the art of music, musical instruments, and finding new ways, modern methods, integrated technologies for teaching children to play musical instruments.

While learning to play children's musical instruments, a new amazing world of sounds opens up in front of children, an interest in instrumental music is shown, primary concepts of elementary musical literacy are being mastered, an active vocabulary is enriched, children are mastering playing skills, and musical abilities are developing.

Musical creativity promotes visual, auditory activity, develops musical memory, expands perception in general.

Playing musical instruments is one type of children's performing activity that is extremely attractive to preschoolers. The child hears and compares the sound of different musical instruments, learns to understand and love music.

During the game, the individual traits of each performer are clearly manifested: the presence of will, concentration, emotional responsiveness, curiosity, activity. Musical abilities are developing and improving.

Learning to play musical instruments contributes to the development of fine motor skills of the fingers, the manifestation of imagination, creativity, musical taste. This type of activity has an impact on the all-round development of the individual, has great educational and educational value.

Thus, the problem of teaching preschoolers to play children's musical instruments in the framework of the implementation of the State Educational Standard is very urgent.

The richness and beauty in the sound of instruments performed by various orchestras encourages preschoolers to independently extract sounds from available musical instruments, imitating adult professional performers. Teachers of musical education should use the opportunities that are available in a preschool institution: listening to audio recordings of classical and folk music performed by various instruments in the free time, watching TV shows and fragments of symphonic music concerts, video presentations, playing in a children's orchestra, viewing illustrations with images instruments of different groups: percussion, keyboard, wind, strings. For successful learning to play children's musical instruments and the development of musical abilities, it is necessary, first of all, to create the necessary conditions.

Each instrument is distinguished by a peculiar timbre, a source of sound formation and a method of sound production. For example, a metallophone has a light, ringing, silvery timbre; sound is generated by vibrations of metal plates, and is produced by hitting a hammer. To be used in the work of a preschool educational institution, musical toys and instruments must meet the following requirements: be well tuned; have a certain clean timbre; be child-friendly in terms of size and weight; have a simple design; be durable, suitable for frequent household use. Successful mastery of playing children's musical instruments strengthens positive self-esteem, generates self-confidence and a sense of satisfaction from the successes achieved. Working together with educators, with children and their parents is of great help in the work. The organization of a children's orchestra of the most capable preschoolers is the result of acquaintance with noise and musical instruments. One of the conditions for the positive dynamics of learning to play the instruments is open classes for children of other groups and parents throughout the year, the performance of a children's orchestra at performances and entertainment.

Thus, conducting each lesson on teaching to play the instruments requires from the musical director not only careful preparation and mastery of the material, but also a special creative mood, the ability to captivate preschoolers and at the same time guide them during the lesson to achieve the set goal.

Music is open to everyone; it is ready to communicate with each person who takes a step towards it.
