• Do you know who the singer is?
• Who wrote the words of this piece of poetry to music?
• So, today we shall speak about music. The theme of lesson is Music.
• Teacher: At our lesson today we are going to speak about music, because people can’t live without music. Can you think of a day without music? “Oh, that’s not possible” you may say. Yes, you are right. We can hear music everywhere: in the streets, in the shops, in the parks, in the cars, at the disco, on TV, in your mobile phone, over the radio even in the forest. But in the forest, of course, it is better to listen to birds singing and other natural sounds like the wind in the trees. (әр түрлі нәрселердің дыбысын тыңдау)

So, music helps us to live and I am sure that many, many years ago people listened to music too. Music is a part of our lives. In their free time people often listen to music and sing. I listen to music in the evening after my working day. I listen to music over the radio, retro FM and my favorite groups are Modern Talking, DosMukhasan, my favorite singer is Yuri Antonov. And what about you?

Teacher: — Open your exercise book write down the date and the theme. Draw a table into three colomn in your note book. In the first column you should write what do you know about music? In the second colomn you may write your questions, what you want to know. And in the third colomn at the end of the lesson you must write what information you have known today.

        The  1^st colomn.

• Now, what is music, what can you say about music?

SPEAKING.

Students: So, people cannot live without music. They listen to music, they dance to music, and they learn to play musical instruments.

Students: Music in lives of different people is different some compose music, others play music and others only listen to music. A lot of people who cannot play and musical instruments love to listen to music either at home or at a concert.

Students: Some young people especially teenagers do not think they can listen to classical music and enjoy it. “Symphonies are very difficult to understand” they say. This idea is wrong. In fact classical music is easy to understand, if you listen it often enough.

So, let’s complete the 2^nd colomn. What do you want to know about music?

Students: — I want to know about composers.

• I want to know about musical instruments.
• I want to know about singers, musicians.
• I want to know about singer’s life.
• I want to know the history of sounds.

classical

rock

jazz

• What do you think about these kinds of music? And what music do you like?

Student: Pop music.

For me, pop is a kind of global language. A really unusual, exciting one too. It cuts across all the barriers and brings people together. I think that’s why everyone likes it so much. It’s a way of sharing all our hopes and fears.

• And what can you say about classical music? I think many people prefer classical music, isn’t it?

 Student: Classical music.

I don’t listen to much rock and pop there days. I prefer classical music. Why? Well… pop’s lost its direction, I think. Everything controlled by machines and technology. 10 or 20 years ago there were real artists writing real songs – now all you get is synthesizers and dance music.

• Jazz, who was invented this kind of music?
• Student: Jazz.

Music is loved by many people. American music is jazz. Today jazz bands and groups, both instrumental and vocal are popular all over America and in most parts of the world. The origin of jazz is as interesting itself. Jazz was invented by Afro- Americans.

Quotation.                     «If music be the food of love, play on. »

• An American called Thomas Alva Edison was the first man to record sound. In 1878, he invented a machine called a photograph. The photograph was a bit like a record player, but it used metal cylinders instead of discs. Flat discs (records) appeared ten years later. Tape records first appeared in 1930, but they were large and expensive. Then, in 1963, the Philips Company developed the first cassette. Cassettes are still very popular all over the world. But when you go into a music shop today, you don’t just see records and cassettes. There are CD- s too, and DAT (digital audio tape) cassettes, and even video discs. The choice is amazing!
