children's song
Nurseryrhyme is a short poem with folk flavor, which is mainly accepted by children. It is one of the oldest and most basic genres of children's literature.
Children's songs are a kind of folk songs, which are found all over the country. The content mostly reflects children's interest in life and spreads knowledge about life and production. The lyrics mostly use the method of comparison, and the rhyme is smooth and easy to catchy. The tune is close to the tone of language and has a brisk rhythm. There are solos and duets, such as Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, which is recognized as the world's first children's song.
Children's songs include folk nursery rhymes and poems written by writers. In recent years, Ye Peng New Children's Songs has a sense of the times.
Common expression techniques of children's songs
1, metaphor
This is a common rhetorical device for children's songs. Using this technique can not only make children's songs more vivid and vivid, but also help children understand things that are far from life and difficult to understand. Children are familiar with metaphors.
Such a wave of "moon": "the moon is curved, like a boat, rocking to and fro, and the more it rocks, the more round it becomes. The moon is curved, like a silver plate, turning, turning and bending. " Because the meniscus is compared to a rocking boat and the full moon is compared to a rotating silver plate, the natural phenomenon of the moon's profit and loss changes becomes interesting and vivid in the process of friendly and dynamic description.
Step 2 incarnate
Anthropomorphic technique accords with children's thinking characteristics and aesthetic taste, so it is widely used in children's songs creation. For example, Li Wenyan's children's song "Raindrop": "Raindrop, love clean,/the road is shining." It is interesting for children to compare Xiaoyu to a clean child.
Step 3 exaggerate
Exaggeration in children's songs is closely related to imagination, often with some fantasy colors. Such as "Planting Sunflowers": "The sea is connected with the blue sky, and the mountains are connected with the blue sky. I want to plant sunflowers all over Shan Ye.
Sunflower leaves, green oil, sunflower petals, Huang Cancan and sunflower stalks, such as bamboo stalks, are only three feet away from the sky. To cut a sunflower tray, you need to take a big rocket and drop a seed. The fisherman is a boat. ..... "It is conceivable that this nursery rhyme will bring much surprise to children because of exaggeration.
Step 4: Get excited.
Children's songs usually start with cheers to create an atmosphere. For example, the traditional children's song "Chrysanthemum Blooms": "The bench is crooked and the chrysanthemum blooms. How many flowers? Open three, one for dad, one for mom and one for pigeons. "
The first sentence is an impromptu sentence, which seems to have nothing to do with the following text. If you carefully taste it, you can imagine the little hero sitting on a bench playing and suddenly seeing the scene of chrysanthemums blooming next to him, which plays a role in creating an environmental atmosphere.
Step 5 describe
Description is to imitate the state, color and sound of the described thing with vivid language, including description, color and sound. Proper use of this technique in children's songs will increase children's interest in singing.
Such as Ding Qu "Winter Melon": "Winter melon, winter melon, lying on the ground; Snoring like thunder, fast asleep; Get fat one by one. " There are imitative forms and sounds to stimulate association, which increases the interest of the work.
6. repeatedly
Repetition is an important formal feature of children's songs. For example, the words "Snow White, Snow White" in the Tibetan children's song "Snow White, Snow White" are repeated three times, which not only facilitates children's singing and memory, but also enhances the expression effect.
Step 7 ask questions
Asking questions is also a common method for children's songs. It can arouse people's attention and deep thought, and at the same time make the lyric of children's songs ups and downs, vivid and unique.
For example, Yang Zichen's Raindrops: "Raindrops fell from the sky and watered the red flowers everywhere. How many raindrops have fallen? One drop, two drops, three or four drops ... raindrops fall from the sky and water the green grass. Where are the raindrops? The south falls to the north, the east falls to the west ... "If there are no two rhetorical sentences interspersed in this nursery rhyme, it will appear dull.
