The study of musical literacy must be associated with the auditory images and concepts of the child. In other words, notes must be studied sequentially with different durations.

The study of musical notation usually starts from the note “to”. As the student learns the seven basic sounds of the natural scale, the student practically masters the key of C major, its stable and main steps. Learn to play as early as possible without constant looking at the keyboard. This will become possible when you know well the location of the notes on the button accordion keyboard. Moreover, to know not virtually, but by touch. For this you will have to work hard. The best way to learn the keyboard is to use one octave.

I recommend the first one. By placing our fingers on one octave, we will automatically know the notes of other octaves. Some students need hundreds of repetitions to memorize the basic sounds of one octave. Someone remembers the location of the notes very quickly. But I repeat: it is not enough to remember the location of the notes, you need to distinguish them by sound, accurately determine their location on the keyboard.

The main task of the initial practical work for the study bayan keyboards: remember the nature of the sound in the natural scale, hear it in reality and have an auditory idea of ​​​​it. In addition, it is important to learn the relative duration of whole, half and quarter notes.

Along with memorizing the notes on the keyboard, the student receives an understanding of the location of the notes on the stave, learns how to correctly record sounds of different durations. Here he works out the first skills of sound production and mechanical science.

We memorize the location and sound of the note "to" the first octave. Press the "to" button. Let's pull the sound, listen to it carefully. Let's try to reproduce it with a voice. Then along with the tool. We do this procedure 10-15 times. Press the next button - the corresponding note "re". We do not touch the semitones yet.

Our task for initial stage learn the location of the main notes. So, we play the sequence of notes "to" - "re". We play this sequence in whole, in half. If possible, use a metronome. But even with a metronome, we always count the beats or stamp the count with our foot.

Be sure to sing the exercises performed. When we confidently take the notes “do” and “re” on the keyboard, we proceed to work out the next combination of buttons corresponding to the notes “do” - “si”. We press the “do” button with the second finger, the “si” note with the third.

We concentrate as much as possible, strain our hearing, absorb the sounds being played. We carefully monitor transitions, transfusions from sound to sound. The next combination of sounds to learn the right keyboard: "do-re-si-do".

I remind you that all these manipulations are aimed at studying the location of the “do” note on the keyboard. After you begin to find and play the note “do” absolutely freely, you can move on to mastering the note “re”. By analogy with the previous lessons, we compose a sequence of buttons from the “re” button down and up.

These sequences will look like this: “re-mi”, “re-do”, “re-mi-re-do”. How many times do the sequences need to be repeated before they are completely memorized? For each student individually. It could be ten repetitions, or it could be a hundred.

Similarly, we work out the rest of the main sounds up to the note "si". This will be the first step in learning the right keyboard. In the next step, we will deal with intervals, i.e. Let's continue to study the notes (buttons) of the main scale on the right keyboard using intervals as an example.

Musical instrument: Bayan

The timbre palette of currently existing musical instruments is extremely rich, because each of them has its own unique voice. For example, in the violin it is melodiously charming, in the trumpet it is piercingly brilliant, in the celesta it is transparent crystal. However, there is one instrument that has the rare ability to imitate various timbres. It can sound like a flute, clarinet, bassoon, and even like an organ. This instrument is called button accordion and it can rightfully be called a small orchestra. Bayan, with its great artistic potential, is capable of much - from the accompaniment of simple folk songs to complex masterpieces of world classics. Enjoying great popularity, it also sounds on large concert stages and is an invariable participant in festive feasts; it is not for nothing that the button accordion is called the “soul of the Russian people”.

Bayan is one of the most advanced varieties of harmonica, which has a chromatic scale.

history and many interesting facts read about this musical instrument on our page.

Sound

Bayan, which has a rich musical and expressive potential, opens up great opportunities for performers for creativity. The bright sound is rich, expressive and melodious, and the thinnest thinning gives the timbre a special brilliance. The instrument can play beautiful romantic melodies, as well as dramatic dark pieces of music.


The sound on the button accordion is formed due to the vibration of the reeds in the voice bars under the action of air, which creates a fur chamber and is characterized by a special dynamic plasticity. It is possible to perform the most delicate transparent piano and fanfare forte on the instrument.

Bayan, by virtue of its design feature(the presence of registers), has a diverse timbre palette of sound - from full-sounding organ to soft and warm violin. The accordion tremolo is very similar to the violin tremolo, and the dynamic volume of the instrument gives the impression that a full orchestra is playing.


Button accordion range quite large and is 5 octaves, starting from "mi" of a large octave and ending with "la" of the fourth.

Button accordion design

Bayan, which is a rather complex structure, consists of two main sections: left and right, interconnected with fur.

1. Right side of the instrument- this is a rectangular box, with a neck and a soundboard attached to it, with mechanisms built into it. When a key is pressed, the mechanism raises the valves, thereby passing air to the resonators with voice bars and reeds.

For the manufacture of the box and the deck, resonant wood species are used: spruce, birch, maple.

A grill is attached to the box, as well as register switches (if any are provided by the design) that serve to change the timbre. The box also contains two large straps to secure the instrument during performance.

On the fretboard, in chromatic order, there are playing keys in three, four or five rows.

2. Left body- this is also a rectangular box, in which on the outside there is the left keyboard of the instrument, containing five, and sometimes six rows of buttons: two are basses, the remaining rows are ready-made chords (major, minor, seventh chords and reduced seventh chords). On the left body there is a register for switching a ready-made or selective sound extraction system, as well as a small strap with which the left hand sets the fur chamber in motion.

In the left case there is a deck with complex mechanisms for extracting sounds in two systems for the left hand: ready-made and ready-elective.

The fur chamber, attached to the body with frames, is made of special cardboard and pasted over with a cloth on top.

The weight of a multi-timbre concert button accordion reaches 15 kg.

Bayan varieties


The large bayan family is divided into two groups: ordinary bayans and orchestral ones.

Ordinary ones have two types, which differ from each other in the accompaniment systems in the left hand: ready-made and ready-selective.

  • A ready-made accompaniment system consists of basses and ready-made chords.
  • Ready-to-elective has two systems: ready-made and elective, which are changed using a special register. The selective system has a full chromatic scale, which increases the performance capabilities of the instrument, but at the same time complicates the playing technique.

Orchestral button accordions, due to their design features, having a keyboard only on the right side of the body, are also divided into two types:

  • first - the instruments differ in their pitch range: double bass, bass, tenor, alto, prima, and piccolo;
  • the second - differ in timbre: bayan-pipe, bassoon , the flute, clarinet , oboe.

Application and repertoire


The range of application of the button accordion is very wide, it can also be heard on the stages of large concert halls as a solo, ensemble, orchestral instrument and in amateur ensembles and orchestras of folk instruments. Groups consisting only of accordion players are very popular. Very often, the button accordion is used as an accompanying instrument or just in everyday life at various family holidays.

The instrument is very versatile, it performs works by composers of past eras, as well as music of modern genres: jazz, rock and techno.

The compositions of I.S. Bach V.A. Mozart , N. Paganini, L.V. Beethoven , I. Brahms, F. Liszt , C. Debussy, D. Verdi , J. Bizet. D. Gershwin, G. Mahler, M. Mussorgsky, M. Ravel, N. Rimsky-Korsakov, A. Scriabin, D. Shostakovich, P. Tchaikovsky, D. Verdi and many other classics.

Today, more and more modern composers write different works for the instrument: sonatas, concertos and original pop plays. L. Prigozhin, G. Banshchikov, S. Gubaidulina, S. Akhunov, H. Valpola, P. Makkonen, M. Murto – their musical compositions for accordion sound very impressive on the concert stage.

Performers


Since the button accordion was gaining popularity very quickly in Russia, the performing arts on it developed very intensively. In connection with the constant improvement of the instrument, more and more creative possibilities. Particularly noteworthy is the contribution to the development of the performing skills of innovative accordionists: A. Paletaev, who was the first to switch to a five-finger fingering instead of the previously used four-finger fingering, thereby increasing technical capabilities tool; Y. Kazakov - the first performer on a multi-timbre ready-to-select button accordion.

The Russian bayan school is now very well known throughout the world, and the performing arts are now increasingly flourishing. Our musicians constantly become laureates of various international competitions. A lot of young performers enter the big concert stage, but it is necessary to single out the names of such outstanding musicians as I. Panitsky, F. Lips, A. Sklyarov, Yu. Vostrelov, Yu. Tkachev, V. Petrov, G. Zaitsev, V. Gridin , V. Besfamilnov, V. Zubitsky, O. Sharov, A. Belyaev, V. Romanko, V. Galkin, I. Zavadsky, E. Mitchenko, V. Rozanov, A. Poletaev, who contributed a significant contribution to the development of the modern performing school.

History of button accordion


Each instrument has its own history, and the button accordion also has a backstory. It began in ancient China in the 2-3 millennium BC. It was there that the instrument was born, which is the progenitor of the modern button accordion. Sheng is a reed wind musical instrument representing a body with bamboo or reed tubes attached in a circle with copper reeds inside. In Russia, he appeared during the Mongol-Tatar yoke, and then along the trade routes came to European countries.

In Europe at the beginning of the 19th century, using the principle of sheng sound production, the German organ maker Friedrich Buschmann invented a mechanism that helped him in tuning instruments, and which later became the forerunner of the accordion. Somewhat later, the Austrian of Armenian origin K. Demian modified the invention of F. Bushman, transforming it into the first accordion.

In Russia, the harmonica appeared in the second quarter of the 19th century, it was brought from abroad, bought at fairs from foreign merchants as a curiosity. The instrument, which could play a melody and accompany, quickly gained popularity among urban and rural residents. Not a single festival took place without her participation, the accordion, along with the balalaika, became a symbol of Russian culture.

In many Russian provinces, workshops began to be created, and then factories that made their own local varieties of accordions: Tula, Saratov, Vyatka, Lebanese, Bologoev, Cherepovets, Kasimov, Yelets.

The first Russian accordions had only one row of buttons, they became two-row in the second half of the 19th century, by analogy with the design, which was then improved in Europe.

The musicians-harmonists were mostly self-taught, but they performed miracles of performing skills, despite the fact that the instrument was rather primitive in design. One of these nuggets was a worker from the city of Tula N.I. Beloborodov. Being an avid harmonist, he dreamed of creating an instrument that would have more performance possibilities.

In 1871, under the leadership of N.I. Beloborodov, master P. Chulkov created a two-row accordion with a full chromatic scale.


At the end of the 19th century, in 1891, after improvement by the German master G. Mirwald, the accordion became three-row, with a chromatic scale arranged in series along oblique rows. Somewhat later, in 1897, the Italian master P. Soprani patented his new invention - the extraction of ready-made major and minor triads, dominant seventh chords on the left keyboard. In the same year, but in Russia, the master P. Chulkov presented at the exhibition an instrument with bent mechanics in the "left hand", which also made it possible to extract ready-made chords with one keystroke. Thus, the accordion was gradually transformed and became an accordion.

In 1907, the master designer P. Sterligov. on behalf of the musician-harmonist Orlansky-Titarenko. a complex four-row instrument was made, called "Bayan", in memory of the ancient Russian storyteller. The instrument was rapidly improved and already in 1929 P. Sterligov invented the button accordion with a ready-to-select system on the left keyboard.

The growing popularity of the tool is accompanied by its constant development and improvement. The timbre capabilities of the button accordion make it truly unique, because it can sound like an organ or like wind and string instruments. Accordion in Russia we are popularly loved - this is both an academic instrument that sounds from the stage in a large concert hall, and a symbol Have a good mood, amusing people on a rural mound.

In fact, the button accordion is a kind of accordion.

Everyone has their flaw

Your habits, hobbies.

And there are directions in music

But there can be no doubt

What is dearest to me is the button accordion.

You say, “But how is that? He is old

And you'll be wrong.

Smile at your mistake

When he comes back to our life.

Let his sound not so loud,

Like electric guitars

The roar is coming from the speakers,

But he has something in him...

And this "something" even the most,

Rock band fanatics headstrong

Sometimes it takes to the soul.

And, believe me, the years will fly by

Windy fashion will change,

And only the button accordion will not be silent.

He will pass all fires and waters.

And together with the "Russian round dance"

Bayan will sound on Mars!

Riddles:

Stretch the fur, Seryozhka,

So that the legs start dancing.

To Petya and Tolyan

Praise your...

He has a pleated shirt

He loves to squat,

He dances and sings -

If it gets into your hands.

Forty buttons on it

With mother-of-pearl fire.

The box is on its knees

She sings, she cries loudly.

Sting on the keys Anton,

Sting on the buttons Ivan,

And the accordion sounded

And played (accordion)

Bayan is a musical instrument, a kind of harmonica with a full chromatic scale on the right keyboard, basses and ready-made chord or ready-to-select accompaniment on the left. Named after the ancient Russian singer-storyteller Boyan.

The modern bayan is equipped with a five- or three-row right keyboard, sometimes with register-switches (depending on the number of simultaneously sounding voices when one button is pressed in the right keyboard mechanism) and a ready-selectable five- or six-row left keyboard and has excellent artistic and performance capabilities, allows play not only the simplest melodies, but also masterpieces of world classics. There are two-, three-, four- and five-part button accordions.

Bayan consists of three parts - the right half-body, the left half-body, the fur chamber. The sound in the bayan arises due to the vibration of the reeds in the openings of the voice bar under the influence of an air stream from the fur chamber or into the fur chamber.

Conversations with BAYAN.

Bayan can tell a lot about himself. Look at Bayan - what a handsome man!
It's amazing how much it looks like an accordion.

Still, - the instrument boomed in a juicy, thick bass. - The accordion is my blood brother. Confuses us who does not look closely. Indeed, the Accordion
on the side of the key, like a piano, on the other - buttons. And Bayan has buttons on both the right and left. That's like the whole difference.

And when were you born?

Rarely anyone from musical instruments to such a question
ready to answer. And I know for sure that he appeared in 1907.

Yes, you are still a child! other musical instruments, such as the harp, are thousands of years old. - And such successes! World fame! Must be ability
extraordinary!

The instrument was touched, sobbed in basses:

You respect me, and I will open my soul to you. - And opened it. . . The soul of this tool is a special pneumatic device, in other words, a device that acts by force. compressed air. Air is pumped by furs, it vibrates elastic metal plates-tongues.
The instrument pronounces something gloomy in bass - only reeds are in motion.
It will fill with a gentle nightingale trill - others are moving. The instrument is having fun - the tongues are dancing merrily, sad - the tongues are trembling in thought.
- So that's your secret!
- Let's clarify: not mine, but all pneumatic reed instruments, and the Accordion too.
- A you something personally than such special?
- Without false modesty I will say - improved me. So advanced that perhaps the most perfect of all pneumatic reeds.
Here the tool told its story.

It turns out that he comes from the ancient Russian city of Tula, famous for all kinds of crafts. Came out of a large family of accordions. And it was created by master Pyotr Sterligov, an accordionist. Yes, not on a whim, but by order of the artist Orlandsky-Titarenko. This artist played Russian folk songs unusually well on the accordions. But he had a dream to play even more skillfully. Thus, our hero was born. And they gave him a name, not some kind of newborn, but a proud, epic one (By the way, the name of this epic singer is found in Pushkin's poem "Ruslan and Lyudmila".) Yes, the instrument turned out to be so dexterous, sonorous, that he went for a walk all over Russia. And then they recognized him abroad, and everywhere he conquered hearts with a Russian melody. As time went on - the instrument matured, and he wanted to try everything in the world.
“I feel a heroic strength in myself,” said the instrument, finishing the story. - I can play any music, the most difficult. I compete with the famous Piano and the mighty Organ.
I almost forgot. . .
The name of this instrument is BAYAN.

(I draw your attention: the name of the epic singer is sometimes written through "o" - Boyan, the name of the instrument is always written through "a" - Bayan.)

It is very difficult to talk about the time of the birth of a musical instrument, since music, and therefore musical instruments, have accompanied a person since ancient times. And no one can say for sure - when a person first blew into a bamboo reed and a pipe appeared, which later turned into a flute. Or when a person noticed that a stretched bow string sounds beautiful, he added a few more to it, and a lyre appeared - the predecessor of the harp and guitar.

Today we will talk about one amazing musical instrument. You know that each instrument has its own voice, its own timbre individuality, that is, a special coloring of the sound. Is it possible to confuse the sound of a violin, an organ or a flute? ... But there is one musical instrument that, as it were, absorbed the voices of many instruments, for example, flute, bassoon, organ and others. You probably know this tool well. No wonder it is called "the soul of the Russian people." Guessed? ...... Yes, this is a button accordion Full name modern button accordion - multi-timbre ready - elective button accordion.

Today he is known and loved in many countries of the world. It is not for nothing that international bayan competitions are held, in which foreign musicians participate. But this is today ... And what was at the beginning of his journey?

You probably know that the button accordion originated from the harmonica. First came the harmonica. In ancient China, there was an instrument called "sheng". And the first hand harmonica was invented in Berlin in 1822. The name of the inventor of the hand harmonica is Friedrich Buschmann. He worked as an organ and piano tuner. To facilitate the tuning of organ pipes, he designed a small box with a metal tongue. When Friedrich breathed air into the box with his mouth, the tongue sounded, emitted a tone of a certain pitch. Several of these boxes, which gave sounds of a certain height, simplified the tuning of the organ. But the master did not like that one hand was busy. Then he made each tongue into the fur. He put the device next to him, stretched the fur up and let it go, shrinking under the pressure of its own weight, the fur supplied air to the tongue, and it sounded. Both hands remained free, it was not necessary to blow with the mouth, which made the work easier. Then Friedrich guessed to build all the tongues into the fur, and so that they did not sound at the same time, he equipped them with valves. Now, to obtain the desired tone, it was necessary to open one valve above the corresponding tongue, and leave the rest closed. A little later, he realized that the design he invented could be turned into an independent musical instrument. At first, it looked more like a child's toy than a musical instrument - it only had 5 buttons on the right and 5 on the left. Only very simple melodies without accompaniment could be played on it. Despite this, the accordion quickly spread throughout the world, hitting the Tula fair as well. The overseas curiosity was so fond of in Tula that it spread throughout Russia and turned into a Russian folk instrument. Moreover, in each region it changed, adjusting to local tunes. This is how the Saratov, Liven, Cherepovets, Vyatka, Bologoev harmonicas appeared. Thanks to the Russian masters appeared, in fact new tool, in which only the principle of sound extraction remained from the former harmonica.

AT In 1830, music master Ivan Sizov went to a fair in Nizhny Novgorod, and there he heard an harmonica. bought Like any inquisitive artisan, he first dismantled and studied the structure of the instrument. After making sure that there was nothing particularly complicated in it, especially for a Tula gunsmith, he took it and made the same one with his own hands. Of course, relatives and acquaintances immediately learned about this, and among them there were many craftsmen. Tula has always been famous for its craftsmen. Very soon, making harmonicas became a craze.

The path to perfection of the harmonica was long and difficult. At first it was very simple and primitive (5-7 buttons per right side and two basses on the left side). The time has come, and in this form it could no longer satisfy the increased skill of the performers. And in 1871, the Tula musician - a nugget Nikolai Ivanovich Beloborodov designed a new type of instrument - a chromatic harmonica. It already had an extended accompaniment (consisted of basses, three major and two minor chords), two rows of buttons in the right keyboard. And now 42 sounds could be played on the instrument! But the search for a more convenient design continued. And so one of the musicians, Yakov Fedorovich Orlansky - Titarenko, shared with the harmonica master Peter Yegorovich Sterligov the idea of ​​a new instrument. Or, if the language of today's production, formulated technical task. It was in 1905. The idea inspired the master, and two years later, in 1907, an instrument was built that had more than four octaves for the right keyboard - twelve sounds each, and for the left hand - full set basses and chords for all keys without exception. In honor of the legendary ancient Russian singer-storyteller Boyan, he was named bayan. Bayan is a name accepted only in our country. So the laurels of the invention of the button accordion equally belong to both the musician and the master. They created a tool that was so perfect from the very beginning that in principle it has not changed so far, although, of course, there have been improvements. And everything became available to this instrument, up to a concert with a symphony orchestra. Bayan is a name accepted only in our country. Abroad, all chromatic harmonicas, whether they have keys or buttons, are called accordions. Work on improving the instrument continued for many more years. Yes, it actually continues to this day.

We have wonderful factories in Russia where they make special technology to order modern concert button accordions of the latest generation "Jupiter", "Appassionata", "Lefsha", "Russia", which are played by outstanding musicians. A multi-timbre ready-to-select button accordion is an instrument of great dynamic, timbre and acoustic capabilities, which is capable of performing the most complex works written for various tools. The level of accordion performance today is extremely high. The names of the wonderful bayan players Ivan Panitsky, Yuri Kazakov, Vladimir Besfamilny, Friedrich Lips, Vyacheslav Semenny, Yuri Shishkin and many others are known all over the world. The most complex original compositions are written for the modern button accordion. International competitions and festivals are held, talented composers write new interesting works, accordionists tour all over the world, gathering huge concert halls

Bayan belongs to a rather small group of instruments that have a wide sound range and do not require accompaniment. As is well known, this group primarily includes the piano, organ, harp, and folk harmonica, guitar, and some others. It is the versatility of the instrument, its compactness, combined with excellent sound qualities, among which the controllability of sound is the most valuable, that determined its democratic character and immense popularity, both in our country and abroad. The bayan is rightfully considered one of the most advanced and widespread types of harmonica. This is a reed keyboard-pneumatic musical instrument with a twelve-step equal temperament system.

The body of the button accordion consists of two parts (right and left), which are connected by a fur chamber (fur), it is made of beech or spruce. The outer surface is carefully polished or glued with celluloid. The fur chamber, which has 14-15 folds (borin), is made of electric cardboard, glued with silk and granitol and fixed with rounded metal corners. On the right semi-body there is a fingerboard with a keyboard for playing right hand. The most common bayans have three rows on the right keyboard and the number of keys is from 52 to 61.

Its range is from B-flat or G of the big octave to C-sharp or G of the fourth octave. Low sounds are produced by the keys located at the top of the fretboard, and the highest sounds are at the bottom of the fretboard. Having four or five rows on the right keyboard does not increase the instrument's range. These additional rows, called auxiliary, are a repetition of the main ones and enable the performer to easily transpose a piece of music into any other key.

On the outer side of the left semi-body there is a keyboard for the left hand with five or six rows of key-buttons. Their number is usually 100-120. On the side of the semi-body there is a belt for the left hand, which, in addition to the game function, also performs the function of mechanical science. Two shoulder straps hold the instrument in place while playing. Another strap can be used connecting them on the back.
The basis of sound production on the button accordion is the vibration of metal reeds (voices) under the influence of an air stream. The tongue, rigidly attached at one end to the metal frame, slips freely in it under air pressure from the side of its rivet. Under the influence of pressure from the other side, it is not excited due to the overlapping of the opening for the sounding voice with a glued strip of husky (skin).

Therefore, to extract the same sound by expanding and compressing the fur, two identical tongues are needed, attached on different sides of two identical openings in the frame. The frames together with the tongues are called slats.
The slats are mounted on special frames - resonators, divided into cells - air or resonator chambers. The entrance to each chamber is called a resonator socket. Through the openings of the socket, air is supplied from the fur chamber to the vocal reeds fixed on the walls of the air chambers of the resonators. For good tightness of the structure, the contact surface of the socket with the soundboard and the voice strips with resonators is pasted over with a husky. Resonators are attached to the deck wooden blocks and special bolts.

The loudness of the sound depends on the amplitude of the oscillation of the reed: the stronger the pressure of the air jet, the louder the sound, and vice versa. The pitch of the sound depends on the length of the tongue: shorter ones produce high-pitched sounds, longer ones - low ones. To prevent the reeds of low register sounds from being excessively large, additional weights are riveted onto them.

The timbre of the sound depends on the design of the soundboard and resonator, the shape and volume of the resonator chambers, as well as on the thickness and material of the bar, on the quality of the metal from which the voice is made, and on the profile of the voice.
