importance Of Music In Performing Arts Especially In Drama, Theatre And Dance.

 

Importance Of Music In Performing Arts Especially In Drama, Theatre And Dance.

 

Performing Art needs to form an integral part of curriculum, which allows children to be creative and playful; motivating them to recreate and enact situations taught in the curriculum, using different perspective and modes of expressions to reach a conclusion which in turn builds on their confidence, communication skills along with their creative skills.

The benefits of children participating in the performing art are numerous. They build upon their social, emotional, physical and even academic skills, resulting into enhanced cognitive, Psychomotor and social skills. Participating in performing acts results in building a strong relationship with teachers and students, students and students etc. Researches in mental health have stated that one in every ten children are being diagnosed with mental health disorders, engaging in performing arts greatly reduces this risk.

Music has great healing power and relieves students of any anxiety and stress. It soothes the mind and helps them feel fresh. It helps in improve the learning and concentration skills. Overall students learn patience, coordination, and cooperation while practicing music.

Music plays a very integral role in daily activities. Most people usually listen to music when working out, driving, or sometimes even while working on assignments as it creates a fun and lively atmosphere in everything that we do. Music sets the mood and is often in line with our emotions as we all can recognize its role in the theatrics of movies, musicals, and dramas. Our fingers naturally type faster as the beats increase in speed when we listen to the instrumental music in the background. Even though it may seem like an insignificant background noise, it plays a much bigger role on our productivity than expected. Similarly, the beats in music give off a vibe that transcends into the movement of the body without it ever giving off a striking epiphany of the strong impact that it can have.

Importance of music on Theatre and Drama

Music has been an integral part of theatre in the Western world as far back as the tragedies and comedies of Ancient Greece. Music can reveal the inner emotional life of a character, foreshadow a vicious attack or budding love, or comment on the action onstage.

According to the first theatrical scholar, Aristotle, the six elements that make up any drama are: plot, character, thought, diction, music and spectacle. Other traditions of theatre from Asia, Africa, India and elsewhere, share in the essential nature of music in theatre.

There are, of course, plays without music. Even in these plays, however, there is sound, primarily the sound of the words. Where music is present, it is important for much the same reasons as the words are important.

 

Music can have a number of different roles in a play. In terms of musical theater, such as opera, ballet, and musicals, music has the function of communicating the emotional heart of the action and the feelings, wishes, and thoughts of the characters. In musical theater, music involves a certain degree of suspension of disbelief on the part of the audience. The characters sing to each other or directly to the audience as if they are not even aware that they are singing. As the audience watches the characters on stage break into song, they are brought into the inner workings of the character and experience them on a deeper level. It helps us understand the personality of the characters, establishes a back-story, and moves the action forward. In non-musicals a monologue can often achieve this same goal, but usually with fewer spectacles.

In non-musical theater, music can still play a role. Sometimes it used to help establish a certain mood. As in film, plays can use music to associate the action on stage with a certain theme. Certain characters and story elements will be associated with a particular musical theme to clue in the audience that they should be thinking or feeling a certain way. This is often done subtly when it is done most effectively.

Music cannot convey thoughts as clearly as words can, but it may convey shades of emotion with much greater subtlety. Related to this is the creation of atmosphere, which may contradict the words and alert the audience to some confusion. Music can also link different scenes or sections of a play which contain similar themes and ideas by repeating the same musical pattern.

Music, like language, also has an aesthetic purpose. The music may add beauty, grandeur, and pathos to a scene. It may also complement and heighten the effect of the words.

 

Importance of music in dance

Dance needs music to set the mood, drop the beat, and create the motivation needed to start moving. Music has that ability to make us feel a certain way, which is why it plays such an immense role in dance. Different styles of music create various types of beats, which all correspond to a specific dance style. While some dances can be performed to any kind of music, there is always a typical genre that it matches with. For example, slower tunes would be utilized when performing dance styles such as the mohiniyattam , kadhakali etc while fast, upbeat songs would be used for hip-hop, tap dancing, or the salsa. Although it can be argued otherwise, the traditional version of each of these dance styles respectively corresponds to either slow or fast music.

Furthermore, the lyrics of a song can be portrayed through dance just further enhancing the relationship they share. A song in itself can evoke so many emotions through its lyrics, but when combined with dance the impact it leaves can last a lifetime. When dramatic music is conjoined with intricate movement, the aesthetic qualities are enhanced. The movements go in sync with the speed of the music and the melody combined with the footwork can definitely be classified as a work of art.

In India, classical music plays a significant role in classical dance. The storyline of the dance is recited in the form of keerthanams accompanied by many percussion instruments. In dance forms like kadhak and kuchipudi stories of lord Krishna is narrated in a poetic way using rhythm and classical music.

 

Theatre art forms have a tight connection with music. The art forms without music or rhythm is hard to listen as well as digest.

IMPORTANCE OF MUSIC & VOICE IN CLASSROOM TEACHING.

IMPORTANCE OF MUSIC & VOICE IN CLASSROOM TEACHING.

 

Voice is a basic tool in communication between adults. In educational settings, teachers use their voices in different paralinguistic ways when they communicate with students. A teacher’s use of voice is important because it serves to communicate attitudes and emotions in classroom. When teachers take different roles in relation to children, they use their voice with different pitch, melody, and loudness. Various acoustic elements in teachers’ voices are associated with different teaching roles when explored from a child-sensitive perspective. Wise use of auditory elements such as pitch, melody, and loudness etc can increase the effectiveness of learning process. Following are the components of music and voice which affect learning process.

 

1.   VOLUME or LOUDENESS

When speaking naturally without any amplification, A teacher has to keep in mind that the distance to be covered by her voice. We can compare the act of speaking with the act of throwing a ball. More muscular effort is needed to throw the ball a long distance than to throw it in a shorter length. A teacher has to consider her words as balls and mentally watch them covering the space between her and the students. A teacher has to make her voice loud enough to be heard by students in the last row. Speaking to a large class with more students will require more energy and breathe control.

 

2.   CLARITY

Clarity of sound depends on speed or rate of the sound. Rate is how fast or slow a person speaks. A teacher can vary the rate depending on the emotions or the type of message you are communicating. If a person experiences joy, he will speak at a fast rate and if a person is experiencing sadness, he will speak in a lower rate. A teacher has to speak at a varied rate so that students have to emphasize important parts of the content. Teacher has to speak slower in the time of making choices and thinking carefully about what she says. A slower pace may convey thoughtfulness to the audience.

3.   PITCH

Pitch is the auditory attribute of sound ordered on a scale from low to high. Pitch is closely related to frequency of sound waves. Changing the pitch while speaking can convey shades of meaning such as emphasis or surprise, or distinguish a statement from a question. A teacher wants to find a pitch that is suitable for his class environment. Teachers use a pitch range that would normally be comfortable for the natural conversation in classroom. All languages use pitch pragmatically as intention to communicate different meanings such as to convey surprise or irony, or to pose a question. Consciously or unconsciously the teacher will use the different patterns of pitch to convey different meanings to the students. Teacher can use pitch to draw the student’s attention to words, phrases, or ideas that are more important than others.

4.   PAUSES

A teacher may use pauses to enhance the message delivery and also use filler words and pauses that distract from the boredom in classroom. Pauses can enhance delivery. A pause may refer to a rest, hesitation, or temporary stop to the speech. It is an interval of silence and may vary in length. Teacher may use a pause to emphasize that the information coming next is important, or to give the audience time to process what you have just said. Pause enables the teacher to gather thoughts before delivering the final appeal. Pause prepares the listener to receive your message. Also, Pause creates effective suspense and suspense can create interest. The audience will want to find out the conclusion or what happened if you pause before the punch line or conclusion. Pause after an important idea. Pause at the end of a unit or a content or main point. Unwanted pause in speech creates boredom to students.

5.   DICTION and RHYTHM

Diction of sound focuses on articulation and pronunciation. Humans are unique in our use of tongue, lips, and other movable parts of the speech mechanism. In articulating an idea, teacher varies the sound by movement of the teeth, tongue, and lips into recognizable patterns. Pronunciation   refers to the ability to use the correct stress, rhythm, and intonation of a word in a spoken language. A word may be spoken in different ways by various individuals or groups, depending on many factors such as area in which individuals grew up, the area in which individual live, whether the individual have a speech or voice disorder, ethnic group, socio-economic background, education etc. Teacher can listen to recordings of different people and check the pronunciation in online dictionaries which has an audio of the preferred pronunciations.

6.   DIALECT AND VOCAL VARIETY

Teacher may use many different English dialects to change the pitch, rate, volume, and use of pauses to achieve vocal variety. A dialect is a variety of a language that is a characteristic of a particular group of the language speakers. A dialect is distinguished by its vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation. The term dialect is applied most often to regional speech patterns. The major native dialects of English are often divided by linguists into three categories: British, North American, and Australasian. Likewise, every language has different dialects. It is important to consider whether the majority of the audience shares the same dialect as the speaker to make sure that the words and pronunciation match those of the audience. If you are speaking to students from different regions, a teacher make sure that the word choice and pronunciation is more widely used than that of a regional dialect community.

7.   VOCAL VARIETY

Vocalic, or paralanguage, refers to the non-verbal elements of speech used to modify meaning and convey emotion. You achieve vocal variety by using any or all of the features of vocalic: the rate, pitch, volume, and pauses you use to change the way you deliver your message. Here are methods to help you create variety in your delivery:

·         Speak faster or slower at different times.

·         Speak at a slightly higher or lower pitch.

·         Use more force to speak louder or softer.

·         Pause at different points in your speech.

The goal of classroom learning is to avoid monotony and unvarying tone that will create boredom in classroom and fails to communicate your message clearly.
