舞蹈是音乐的姊妹艺术。音乐是时间与声音的艺术,舞蹈是时间与空间的艺术;音乐是用声音作为工具塑造艺术形象,舞蹈则是用典型的人体动作以四肢和身体作为工具来塑造艺术形象的。俗话说:“歌舞不分家。”但作为两种艺术门类,它们是有着本质区别的。 以前师范院校音乐专业的舞蹈课只是为学生在唱累了、坐累了时调剂身体、情绪、松松肌肉而开设的,为学生在唱奏时提高风度、改变气质,为音乐会、文艺晚会调剂观众口味而开设的。舞蹈课在音乐专业不作为主课或遭到冷遇是可以理解的。以前报考师范院校音乐专业的学生,只能报考声乐与器乐专业。舞蹈再好,也只能作为加试记入总成绩。大批舞蹈较出色,因为声音差一点的学生被关在校门外。反之不少声音一般其他方面较差的学生大量地被招了进来。 随着教育的不断改革,社会对具有舞蹈特长的师范院校音专毕业生需求量越来越大,要求不断提高,舞蹈教学在音乐专业中的地位也逐步上升。省教委在1988年正式通过决议把舞蹈课作为音乐专业的必修课,在高考中报师范院校音乐专业的考生可以舞蹈专业为主。一个好的音乐老师既要会唱、会弹又要会跳,力求一专多能。实践证明,音专学生毕业后要上好一堂音乐课并不难,难的是在抓课外活动上,所以我们培养学生的重点应 Dance is a sister art of music. Music is the art of time and sound, and dance is the art of time and space. Music shapes the artistic image with sound as a tool, and the dance shapes the artistic image with the use of limbs and body as a typical tool for body movements. As the saying goes: “The song and dance do not divide the family.” But as the two art categories, they are essentially different. In the past, the dance courses in music major of normal universities were only designed for the students to sing tired and to adjust their bodies, emotions and loose muscles when they were tired. As a result, students could improve their style and temperament while singing, The party adjusted the taste of the audience opened. It is understandable that dance classes are not major subjects or are discouraged by music major. Before applying for a normal college students majoring in music, can only apply for vocal and instrumental professional. No matter how good the dance can only be added as a test into the total score. A large number of dance is excellent, because almost the sound of the students were kept outside the school. On the contrary, a lot of voices generally poor students in other areas have been recruited into it. With the constant reform of education, society has a growing demand for college graduates with normal dance skills and their demands are constantly increasing. The status of dance teaching in music major also gradually rises. Provincial Board of Education in 1988 formally adopted the resolution of the dance class as a compulsory course of music major, college entrance examination in normal college music major candidates can dance major. A good music teacher should not only sing but also play and jump, and strive to be multi-skill. Practice has proved that it is not difficult for a major major to complete a good music lesson after graduation, and the difficulty is to catch extracurricular activities, so we should train the students to focus on
