A portrait in literature is one of the means of artistic characterization, consisting in the fact that the writer reveals the typical character of his heroes and expresses his ideological attitude towards them through the image of the appearance of the heroes: their figures, faces, clothes, movements, gestures and manners.

In the visual arts, a portrait is a genre in which someone's appearance is recreated. Together with the external similarity, the portrait captures the spiritual world of the depicted person.

Do you think music can paint a portrait and express the character of a person, his spiritual world, his experiences? (Composers, creating a musical portrait, convey the thoughts and feelings of their characters with the help of musical intonation, melody, and the nature of the music.).

Musical portrait - This is a portrait of the character of the hero. It inextricably merges the expressiveness and pictorial power of the intonations of the musical language. (Slide).

Pushkin's work was also to the liking of the 19th century Russian composer Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky

Biography of the composer

Modest Mussorgsky was born on March 21, 1839 in the village of Karevo, Toropetsky district, on the estate of his father, a poor landowner Peter Alekseevich. Mom, Yulia Ivanovna, was the first to teach him to play the piano. At the age of ten, he, along with his older brother, came to St. Petersburg: to enter the School of Guards Ensigns. After graduating from the School, Mussorgsky was assigned to the Preobrazhensky Guards Regiment. Modest was seventeen years old. One of the comrades-transformers, who knew Dargomyzhsky, brought Mussorgsky to him. The young man immediately captivated the musician not only with his piano playing, but also with free improvisations, where he met Balakirev and Cui. Thus began a new life for the young musician, in which Balakirev and the Mighty Handful circle occupied the main place. Soon, the period of accumulation of knowledge was replaced by a period of active creative activity. The composer decided to write an opera in which his passion for large folk scenes and for depicting a strong-willed personality would be embodied.

While visiting Lyudmila Ivanovna Shestakova, Glinka's sister, Mussorgsky met Vladimir Vasilyevich Nikolsky from her. He was a philologist, literary critic, specialist in the history of Russian literature. It was he who drew Mussorgsky's attention to the tragedy Boris Godunov. Nikolsky expressed the idea that this tragedy could become a wonderful material for an opera libretto. These words made Mussorgsky think deeply. He plunged into reading Boris Godunov. The composer felt that an opera based on "Boris Godunov" could become a surprisingly multifaceted work.

By the end of 1869 the opera was completed. Mussorgsky dedicated his brainchild to his circle comrades. In the dedication, he expressed the main idea of ​​the opera in an unusually vivid way: "I understand the people as a great personality, animated by a single idea. This is my task. I tried to solve it in the opera."

Then there were many more works that are worthy of attention. On March 28, 1881, Mussorgsky died. He was barely 42 years old. World fame came to him posthumously.

The opera "Boris Godunov" turned out to be the first work in the history of world opera, in which the fate of the people is shown with such depth, insight and truthfulness.

The opera tells about the reign of Boris Godunov, a boyar who was accused of murdering the rightful heir to the throne, the little prince Dmitry.

Our attention in today's lesson will be riveted to the most interesting character of the opera - Varlaam.

Varlaam sings a song about the siege of Kazan by the troops of Ivan the Terrible.

Now let's see how the composer described this person in music. Listen to the musical speech of the hero in such a way as to imagine his appearance and his character.

- Let's listen to how Varlaam sings his famous song "How it was in Kazan in the city."

Listening to Varlaam's song from the opera Boris Godunov by MP Mussorgsky. (Slide).

The sound of the Song of Varlaam recorded by F. I. Chaliapin (in passing we perform the task: listen to the musical speech of the hero so as to imagine both his appearance and his character, pay attention to the voice of the actor).

How do you imagine Varlaam singing such a song?

How does the character of the performance and the character of the musical language betray the character and even the appearance of this person? (violent, loud music...)

Now open the textbook, paragraph 23, p. 133 and look at Ilya Repin's painting "Protodeacon"

Guys, look carefully at the picture of Ilya Repin "Protodeacon", who you see in front of you, describe. ( Before us is a portrait of the protodeacon - this is such a spiritual rank in the Orthodox Church. We see an elderly man, with a long gray beard, overweight, he has an angry expression / which is given to him by arched eyebrows. He has a large nose, large hands - in general, a gloomy portrait. He probably has a low voice, maybe even a bass.)

You correctly saw everything and even heard his low voice. So, guys, when this picture appeared at the exhibition of the Wanderers, the famous music critic V. Stasov saw on it a character from Pushkin's poem "Boris Godunov" - Varlaam. Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky reacted in the same way, when he saw the "Protodeacon" he exclaimed: "So this is my Varlaamishche!"

What is common between Varlaam and Protodeacon? (These are images of imperious, tough people, monks and priests, typical of Ancient Russia).

Comparative table of expressive means.

I. Repin painting "Protodeacon"

M. P. Mussorgsky "The Song of Varlaam"

A huge figure, holding a hand on his stomach, a gray beard, eyebrows shifted, a red face. Dark colors. The character is haughty and domineering.

Dynamics: loud music, melody - jumps up, timbre - brass. Singing voice - bass. The nature of the performance - cries at the end, a rough manner of performance.

One important feature is inherent in the painting and opera: it is the ability to show the character of a person with a word, music, image.

What do a painting and a song have in common?

D - What is common between the picture and the song is that they show unbridled temper, rudeness, a tendency to gluttony and revelry.

You are right, because this is a collective image. There was such a type of people in Russia at that time. Common is not only external similarity, but also certain character traits. The main thing between them is the unbridled temper, the rudeness of nature, the tendency to gluttony and revelry.

What helped the composer and artist, independently of each other, to create such similar images? (Such people were in Russia.)

In the portrait of the “Protodeacon”, I. E. Repin immortalized the image of deacon Ivan Ulanov, from his native village of Chuguevo, about whom he wrote: “... nothing spiritual - he is all flesh and blood, pop-eyed, yawning and roaring ...”.

With what colors did the artist paint this portrait? (An artist using saturated colors, where darker colors predominate.)

Despite the different means of expression, in fine arts - these are colors, in literature - the word, in music - sounds. All of them told, showed about one person. But all the same, the music emphasized and prompted those aspects that would not have been immediately paid attention to.

3. Musical images

- We got acquainted with two completely different vocal portraits, and the next musical image will sound without words. This is the work "Gnome" from the piano cycle of M.P. Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition" is a musical portrait of a small fairy-tale creature, executed with extraordinary artistic power. It was written under the impression of a painting by V. Hartmann, a close friend of the composer.

Mussorgsky remembered a sketch of a Christmas decoration - a gnome, a small clumsy freak with crooked legs. This is how the artist depicted the nutcracker. ---Listen to this play and think about the mood of the gnome, what is his character, what do you imagine to this music?

Sounds like "Gnome" by M.P. Mussorgsky. (children's answers)

- Guys, how did the gnome appear to you? ( In the music one can hear both a limping gait and some sharp, angular jumps. It is felt that this dwarf is lonely, he suffers.)

· The play by MP Mussorgsky is very picturesque. Listening to her, we clearly imagine how a little man waddling, ran a little and stopped - it's hard to run on such short and thin legs. Then he got tired, walked more slowly and still as diligently and clumsily. It looks like he's even angry with himself for it. The music broke off. Fell, probably.

Guys, if you were artists, then after listening to this music, what colors would you depict this gnome with?

That's right, it moves really angularly, in jumps. The funny gnome is turned by the composer into a deeply suffering person. You could hear him moaning, complaining about fate. He was pulled out of his native fairy-tale element and given to people for fun. The dwarf tries to protest, fight, but a desperate cry is heard ... Guys, how does the music end? ( It does not end as usual, it kind of breaks off.)

You see, guys, "Gnome" is not just an illustration of the picture, it is a deeper image created by the composer.

It turns out that a person can sound .... In notes, musical phrases, melodies, his character is revealed, his “face” is depicted. It is known that a portrait painted by an artist is able to convey the essence of a person, leaving some mystery. Every part of the face, every curve of the body on the canvas resurrects us as a person, while maintaining something intimate.

Music, like any other art form, embodies something beautiful. It conveys the mood, charging a person with positive. Very often we look for ourselves in the lines of songs, trying to catch any note and match it with our personality.

And imagine these two greatest art forms together - painting and music! Portrait of a man in music. Interesting?

Musical portrait is...

First of all, it is art that reveals your soul, musically conveys the emotions and character of a person. It is yours, personal, unique, like the person himself. With the help of a musical portrait, you examine yourself from different angles, revealing ever deeper facets of your inner world. The melody written off actually from your “I” contributes to the improvement of the spiritual state - there is no arguing with that! After all, listening to certain music, you experience emotions. And if it is the music of your soul? Did you have to look at it from the outside? This is an indelible impression - reality takes on a different shape: love, beauty, infinity ...

How is a musical portrait composed?

Have you ever wondered what peace is? Sometimes, in certain moments, you feel some peace of mind. You don't care about anything, you walk on endless paths, there, deep inside. When thoughts are lost, and you are immersed in something more that cannot be described. This something rises from deep within, from the most secret chambers of the heart.

How many people are able to read the unknown world?
A musical portrait can only be created by a genius, a genius of the soul. He can not only read, but also play it into music, feel, understand your thinking, consciousness, open your will. Play the music that plays inside you.

All the fullness of the art of creating a musical portrait lives in a unique environment of the intuitive world. In order to create it, the composer needs personal contact with a person or a personal photograph or video recording. When all the information about a person is collected, the musician records a portrait in the studio, providing the melody with high-quality sound. In practice, it also happened that the composer writes down a musical portrait in the presence of the person he writes about. But in any case, with or without a personal meeting, the quality will not change. In any case, this will be what is called - a musical image of the inner world.

Do you want to hear how a musical portrait sounds?

A musical portrait has two types of creation:

1) Improvisation (impromptu) is the re-creation of the author's feelings immediately into the recording

2) A written piece is a complex, elaborate composition in notes. This kind of composition can later be arranged. This melody has the appearance of a work on which you need to work for a certain time.

Musical portrait - historical heritage and exclusive gift

Modern man is very hard to surprise, isn't it? Imagine that you receive yourself as a gift - your inner world, feelings and experiences that have long been familiar and dear to you? .. Only clothed in the language of music. This is not only relevant and new to our world, it seems incredible and unimaginable!

By ordering a musical portrait, you can make a gift to your loved one. After all, the author can write a musical portrait of you personally or, for example, express your feelings for your loved one - portray him the way you see him! A musician can paint a portrait about love, friendship, and so on. In a musical portrait, you can embody all the versatility of a person!

You can learn about the service and order a musical portrait

Portrait in literature and music

A good painter must paint two main things: a person and a representation of his soul.

Leonardo da Vinci

We know from experience in the fine arts how important the appearance of the model is to a portrait. Of course, the portrait painter is interested in the latter not in itself, not as an end, but as a means - an opportunity to look into the depths of the personality. It has long been known that the appearance of a person is connected with his psyche, his inner world. Based on these relationships, psychologists, doctors, and just people with developed powers of observation and the necessary knowledge “read” information about a person’s mental properties from the iris of the eye (the eyes are the “mirror of the soul”, “window of the soul”, “gate of the soul”), features face, hand, gait, mannerisms, favorite posture, etc.

Most of all, a person's face can tell. not without reason believed that the face is the "soul of man"; as the Russian philosopher said, "it's like a navigator's map." Lido is the "plot" of the book "Personality". It is no coincidence that changing a face sometimes means turning into a different person. This interdependence of the external and internal gave impetus to the artistic imagination of writers - V. Hugo in "The Man Who Laughs", M. Frisch in "I Will Call Myself Gantenbein". It is the disfigurement of the face that seems to the hero of D. Oruzll's novel "1984" to be the final destruction of his personality. The hero of Kobo Abe's novel Alien Lido, forced by circumstances to make himself a mask, begins to live a double life under its influence. The mask that hides the face is the right to a different “image”, a different character, a different value system, a different behavior (remember Souvestre and M. Allen and film versions of their books, the plot of The Bat by I. Strauss ...).


Given how much physical description can tell, writers often use it to characterize a character. A masterfully made description makes the appearance of the character almost “alive”, visible. We seem to see individually unique provincials of "Dead Souls". The heroes of L. Tolstoy are embossed.

Not only how a person looks, but also the environment around him, the circumstances in which he exists, also carry information about the character. This was well understood, for example, by Pushkin, introducing Onegin to the reader in the first chapter of his novel, in verse. The author has few expressive touches of the character’s personal “I” (“a young rake”, “dressed like a dandy in London”), and it is supplemented by many details of Onegin’s upbringing, his social life with balls, theaters, flirting, fashion, salons, dinners.

Obviously, the ability of the "circumstances of action" to testify about people found its extreme expression in the short story of the modern German writer Hermann Hesse "The Last Summer of Klingsor". The artist Klingsor, in order to write a self-portrait, refers to photographs of himself, parents, friends and lovers, for successful work he needs even stones and mosses - in a word, the whole history of the Earth. However, art has also tried another extreme - the complete cutting off of the environment from a person, which we see on the canvases of the great painters of the Renaissance: in Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, the pictures of nature are deliberately distant from the large faces that attract the attention of the viewer. Or we hear in operas: the central aria-portrait of Onegin “You wrote to me, don’t deny it” is in no way connected with the everyday sketches surrounding it - the song of the girls “Girls, beauties, darlings, girlfriends”; confessing his feelings to Lisa Yeletsky in Tchaikovsky's The Queen of Spades, as if he does not notice the bustle of the noisy ceremonial St. Petersburg ball. Contrast organizes the attention of the viewer or listener, directing it to the “close-up” and relaxing it in the “background”.

Describing the color of hair and eyes, height, clothing, gait, habits, circumstances of the hero's life, the writer does not at all seek to create a "visual range" of a work of art. His true goal in this case (and completely conscious) lies much further: to consider the human soul in external signs. Here is how the great French portrait painter of the 18th century, Quentin de Latour, said about this: “They think that I capture only the features of their faces, but without their knowledge I plunge into the depths of their soul and take it entirely.”

How does music portray a person? Does it embody the visible? To understand this, let's compare three portraits of the same person - the outstanding German composer of the late XIX - early XX centuries, Richard Strauss.

This is how (by no means an angel, but a living person) Romain Rolland saw him: “He still looks like an adult distracted child with pouted lips. Tall, slender, rather elegant, arrogant, he seems to belong to a finer race than the other German musicians among whom he is found. Contemptuous, satiated with success, very demanding, he is far from being with the rest of the musicians in a peaceful, modest relationship, like Mahler. Strauss is no less nervous than he is... But he has a great advantage over Mahler: he knows how to rest. it has features of Bavarian looseness. I am sure that after the expiration of those hours when he lives an intense life and when his energy is expended extremely, he has hours, as it were, of non-existence. Then you notice his wandering and half-asleep eyes.


Two other portraits of the composer - sound ones - were "painted" by him in the symphonic poem "The Life of a Hero" and in the "Home Symphony". Musical self-portraits are in many ways similar to the description of R. Rolland. However, let's think about which aspects of the personality are "voiced". It is unlikely that, listening to music, we would have guessed that the prototype is “tall, slender, rather elegant”, that he has “the appearance of an adult sensible child with pouted lips” and “wandering and sleepy eyes”. But here are other features of Strauss-man, revealing his emotional world (nervousness, slight excitability and drowsiness) and important character traits (arrogance, narcissism) are convincingly conveyed by music.

Comparison of the portraits of R. Strauss illustrates a more general pattern. The language of music is not particularly conducive to visual associations, but it would be reckless to completely discard such a possibility. Most likely, the external, physical parameters of the personality can only partially be reflected in the portrait, but only indirectly, indirectly, and to the extent that they are in harmony with the mental properties of the personality.

It is easy to make one more observation. A picturesque portrait seeks to capture the deepest traits of a person through appearance, while a musical portrait has the opposite possibility - “grasping the essence” of a person (his emotional nature and character), allows enrichment with visual associations. The literary portrait, occupying an intermediate place between them, contains an informative description of both the appearance and the emotional-characteristic "core" of the personality.

So, any portrait contains emotion, but it is especially significant in a musical portrait. We are convinced of this by a noticeable phenomenon in the world musical culture - miniatures by the French composer of the late 17th - early 18th centuries Francois Couperin, composed for the forerunner of the modern pianoforte, the harpsichord. Many of them depict people well known to the composer: the wife of one of the organists of the royal church, Gabriel Garnier ("La Garnier"), the wife of the composer Antoine Forcret ("Magnificent, or Forcret"), the bride of Louis XV Maria Leshchinska ("Princess Marie") , the young daughter of the Prince of Monaco, Antoine I Grimaldi ("Princess de Chabay, or the Muse of Monaco"). Among the "models" there are people who obviously surrounded the composer ("Manon", "Angelica", "Nanette"), and even relatives. In any case, the method of recreating a human personality is the same: through individual emotion. His Manon is cheerful and carefree, solemnly majestic appears in the ceremonial portrait of Antonin, Mimi's appearance is painted in more lyrical tones. And all of them are like a continuation of the portrait gallery collected in the book of the great writer and philosopher Jacques de La Bruyère "Characters, or Morals of the present century."

An opera aria is also located to a detailed description of the emotional world of a person. It is curious that in the Italian opera of the 17th - early 18th centuries, a tradition developed to single out the main emotion of the character in the aria, the main affect. The main emotions gave life to the types of arias: arias of sorrow, arias of anger, arias of horror, arias-elegies, bravura arias and others. Later, composers try to convey not one all-encompassing state of a person, but a complex of emotions inherent in him, and thereby achieve a more individual and deep characterization. Such as in the cavatina (that is, the exit aria) of Lyudmila from the opera Ruslan and Lyudmila by Glinka. The composer is clearly inspired by Pushkin's image:

She is sensitive, modest,

Faithful conjugal love,

A little windy ... so what?

She is even cuter.

Ludmila's aria consists of two sections. The first, introductory, - an appeal to the father - is imbued with light sadness, lyricism. The wide melody, sounding at a slow pace, is interrupted, however, by flirtatious phrases.

In the second, main section, we learn the main features of the heroine: cheerfulness, carelessness. Accompanied by "dancing" polka chords, the melody quickly overcomes complex leaps and rhythmic "slips" (syncopes). Ringing, shimmering high coloratura soprano Lyudmila.

Here is another musical portrait, "written" already without the participation of the voice - the play "Mercutio" by Sergei Prokofiev from the piano cycle "Romeo and Juliet". Music radiates overflowing energy. Fast tempo, elastic rhythms, free transfers from the lower register to the upper register and vice versa, bold intonation breaks in the melody “revive” the image of a merry fellow, a “daring young man” who “talks more in one minute than he listens to in a month”, a joker, a joker, not able to remain idle.

Thus, it turns out that a person in music is not simply endowed with some emotion invented by the author, but certainly with one that is especially indicative of the original (literary prototype, if such, of course, exists). And one more important conclusion: realizing that “one, but fiery passion” nevertheless schematizes the personality, “drives” it into a two-dimensional planar space, the composer tries to come to a certain set of emotional touches; the multi-colored "palette" of emotions allows us to describe not only the emotional world of the character, but, in fact, something much more - the character.

Musical portrait. Mikhail Yavorsky.

We have a lot of strange things in life,
For example, I dreamed for many years
Even tried more than once
Write a musical portrait.

For nature, I found a person -
The standard of nobility and honor,
A contemporary from our century
Lived a life without lies and without flattery.

And today, I'm painting a portrait,
Not an easy job, believe me
The music stand will replace my easel
Instead of paints, brushes - only notes.

The stave will be better than the canvas,
I will write everything on it and play it,
This drawing will not be simple,
But I don't lose my hope.

To make the features look softer,
There will be more minor sounds,
And the opportunities here are great.
Not to the detriment of musical science.

The score will not be simple,
Only I will not break the musical law,
And this portrait will be like this -
Everyone will hear his heart and soul in him.

It won't hang on the wall
He is not afraid of moisture and light,
And, of course, I would like
May he live for many years.

The power is still evil. The music is powerful, which means that the hero is very powerful, at the same time rampant, cruel, everyone is afraid of him.

Teacher.

What means of musical expression does the composer use when depicting this “hero”?

Students.

Teacher.

And the intonation of which song is used by the composer to portray this character?

Students.

Russian folk dance

Teacher.

Based on the means of musical expression you have listed, what do you think this person looks like outwardly?

Students.

This man is elderly, with a beard, the look is angry and domineering.

A portrait of I. Repin "Protodeacon" is shown.

Teacher.

Let's think, is there any similarity between our “musical hero” and the person depicted in this picture? And if there is, then which one?

Students.

There is a resemblance. The man depicted in the picture is also elderly, with a beard.

Teacher.

Guys, pay attention to the look of this man. Try to portray this look. What is he?

Students.

The look is sharp, predatory, evil. Eyebrows are thick, black, wide apart, which makes the look heavy and domineering. The picture, as in music, is in dark colors.

Teacher.

We have compared two portraits - musical and artistic. The musical portrait belongs to the pen of the Russian composer M.P. Mussorgsky (Varlaam's song from the opera "Boris Godunov"), the second portrait belongs to the brilliant Russian portrait painter I. Repin (the portrait is called "Protodeacon"). Moreover, these portraits were created independently of each other.

Viewing an excerpt from the opera “Boris Godunov” (“Song of Varlaam”).

Teacher.

Guys, why do you think such portraits as Varlaam, the archdeacon, appeared?

Students.

The composer and the artist saw such people and portrayed them.

Teacher.

Listening to the “Song of Varlaam” and looking at the painting “Protodeacon”, what do you think, how do the artist and composer treat such people, equally or differently. Justify your answer.

Students.

Both the composer and the artist do not like such people.

Teacher.

Indeed, when Mussorgsky saw the “Protodeacon,” he exclaimed: “Yes, this is my Varlaamishche! This is a whole fire-breathing mountain!”

I.E. Repin in the portrait of “Protodeacon” immortalized the image of deacon Ivan Ulanov, from his native village of Chuguevo, about whom he wrote: “... nothing spiritual - he is all flesh and blood, pop-eyed, yawning and roaring ...”.

Teacher.

Tell me, did we get the attitude of the authors towards their characters?

Students.

Kon

Teacher.

Have you met such portraits in our time?

Students.

No.

Teacher.

And why don't they create such portraits in our time?

Students.

Because there are no such people today. There were many such “heroes” in past centuries. Such priests were typical for that time. Today there are no such priests.

Teacher.

That is, art reflects the reality around us.

Now we will get acquainted with one more musical portrait.

Listening to Kutuzov's aria from S.S. Prokofiev "War and Peace".

Learning an aria.

The class is divided into three groups and receives the following tasks:

1st group - gives a verbal portrait of the character (external and “internal”);

2nd group - selects one portrait corresponding to the given piece of music from the proposed video sequence, substantiates the answer;

3rd group - compares the resulting portrait with the given piece of music.

Students justify their answers based on the means of musical and artistic expression used by the composer and artist.

Teacher.

You and I met with another portrait, directly opposite to Varlaam. Kutuzov's aria from the opera by S.S. Prokofiev's "War and Peace" and before us is the painting by Roman Maksimovich Volkov "Kutuzov".

Who is Kutuzov.

Students.

General who defeated Napoleon in the War of 1812.

Teacher.

What character traits of the hero are emphasized by the composer, and which ones by the artist?

Students.

The composer emphasizes majesty, strength, nobility, feeling for the Motherland. The artist emphasizes his services to the Motherland, nobility, intelligence.

Teacher.

And how do both the composer and the artist relate to this hero?

Students.

They respect him, are proud that he is their compatriot.

Teacher.

Students.

Of course

Teacher.

To what previously studied piece of music is this aria close in spirit?

Hearing or singing an excerpt from an aria.

Students.

To the “Bogatyr Symphony” by A.P. Borodin.

Teacher.

Listening to the aria and looking at the picture, can Kutuzov be called a hero. Justify your answer.

Students.

Yes, because it combines all three qualities - Strength, Mind, Good.

Teacher.

Can Varlaam be called a hero?

Students.

No, it has Strength, Mind, but no Good.

(Both portraits on the board)

Teacher.

And why were the portrait of Kutuzov created by Prokofiev and Volkov and Borodin's "Bogatyr" symphony and Vasnetsov's painting "Bogatyrs"?

Students.

Because such people, heroes really existed.

Teacher.

Today we will learn a song, the heroes of which have Strength, Mind, Goodness. And their main strength is friendship. Song from the movie "Midshipmen, forward!" "Song of Friendship"

Song learning.

Take your pick, friend
Just one circle."
