Melodic Heating as a Basic Ability in the formation of Musical Intonation Thinking

Abstract

The article highlights the problem of the significance of such basic skills as melodic hearing in the musical intonation thinking. Analyzed various theoretical and methodological approaches to the development of melodic hearing. It showed how this sense is important in music teaching and creative activities.Analyzing the formation of musical intonation thinking most researchers focusing primarily on its individual components (perception, reflection, creativity). They prove their priority in the process of thinking. However, the complex mechanism of musical thinking could not exist without some basic music skills, such as melodic hearing (intonation hearing), sense of rhythm and memory. In the process of musical intonation thought advisable to rely on the methodicalprovisions on melodic development of intonation hearing. Among them: education system and sense modal connections sounds; learning and auditory representations fixing elements of musical language; formation good singers skills; ability to operate hearing ideas for using them in singing; ability to listen and assess the quality of singing. It is proved that developed intonation hearing depends on the availability of internal hearing, the ability to anticipate sound, music and operate auditory representations. Due to the internal hearing musicians represent mentally sound before performance, and during performance, which allows to control the actual sound.
