Topic «Music in our life» (Топик на английском языке Музыка в нашей жизни)

We listening to the music every day and everywhere. But who can tell us what is it music ? Some people think that it’s just arrangement of sounds or voices. But I think it’s something more. Some people even say that there is no practical use for mankind in music. It’s not a food, shelter, medicines and you cannot even touch it. But the other spend all their lives to create it. May be their are wrong? Let’s try to check this out.
Music is what follows us almost everywhere — at home, at work, in shops, we listen to it while travelling, dreaming, and playing on the computer… As far as I’m concerned music is a necessary part of my life. I suppose all of us wouldn’t be able to live in a way we live now if music didn’t exist. And it’s all because of the enormous influence of music on our lives.
Well, music evokes all kinds of emotions — your temper goes up when you listen to a cheerful piece of music, doesn’t it? Some songs make you recollect various events — and you feel nostalgia, sometimes even anguish. Hundreds of songs are about love — and when you’re in love you feel these songs are natural for you and the melody and lyrics express exactly what you feel. Serene and clear music washes away your sorrow, soul-elevating songs help to understand that life goes on. On the other hand, music can make you feel anxiety, boredom or even rage if it’s not the «right» music for you. I believe that music influences my life a lot. It helps me to grow up, to overcome difficulties, to feel various emotions more deeply. I also listen to songs as background music and, if to choose the right piece of music, it’s a very useful collaboration. For example, right now I’m listening to peaceful sweet melodies and it stimulates my activity. I like listening to my favourite songs, very eloquent and striking, while drawing and painting. Here I should say that the topic and the mood of my pictures usually depend on this music. And I often enjoy listening to music while going somewhere or just strolling down the streets. Firstly it entertains me and makes the trip shorter, secondly it helps to notice the beauty of our town. How wonderful it’s to watch yellow leaves falling, the sun shining and listen to your favourite songs at the same time.
But the influence of music can be negative, even destructive sometimes. Some «musical» bands are not musical at all, they don’t play music but only make some noise and a monotonous succession of sounds. Scientists say that listening to it may even make your spatial reasoning more difficult. Moreover, the lyrics are not of a high-quality, they are very rude, violent, primitive and sometimes preach fascism and ruthlessness. Certainly the intake of such «music» can’t appeal to good feelings. Music can also become an obsession. Tn this case we can say that music is destructive because these people can’t enjoy the life entirely.
So, why do different people prefer various kinds of music? The reason for it is that we all have different mental, physical and emotional tendencies. The physical and psychological reactions will differ because of the varying characteristics we have inherited. Each of us has his own spiritual world and chooses the music which is natural for him. In my opinion the choice of music also depends on our age and gender. For instance, children like simple cheerful songs, young lads prefer either rock or rap — it entertains them, its lyrics help to find the solution to problems. Lots of teenager-girls are fond of calm songs about love, adults listen to rather simple music as background music while driving to work or reading newspapers. Our Grannies and Granddads like old songs which remind them of their past. That’s why sometimes there is misunderstanding between fathers and sons, girls and boys — people don’t want to listen to other opinions, don’t want to understand we all have different perception of the world.
Nowadays there are numerous genres of music but the main are classical, pop, rock and rap music. The majority of people listen to all kinds of music — the name of the genres doesn’t play any role for them,’songs themselves should be attractive — it can be heavy-metal music or a tender clear pop hit. But some people prefer only one genre (for example, classical music) and try to convince everybody that rock or rap are not worth listening to. I can’t stand such declarations — if a person finds classical music boring it doesn’t mean he is stupid! At the same time rock-fans are not always rude as many people think. And I reckon that if more people could make allowances for other opinions there would be fewer conflicts and offences. I think that people refer different music to various genres because music needs to be classified. Without it people just cannot find the song they want. So the aim of classification is comfort not offences. I listen to various music, usually rock, but I also like classical and high-quality pop music. Perhaps I don’t listen to rap and hip-hop only, maybe
because I am not fond of its lyrics, Nowadays rock is a very wide notion: I suppose no one knows all its genres.
I prefer indie-rock. Indie means something strange, not usual, something new. It’s not like heavy metal, for example, it’s much more melodic and personal, I think. Tndie-rock musicians sing about friendship, growing up, growing old, love, politics, the meaning of life — so their lyrics aren’t primitive (like the lyrics of most pop songs), they make you reason. I believe you can find there the answers to your questions. Another reason for my appreciation of Tndie-rock is that the sounds of their music know no bounds — besides guitars and drams they can use the piano, the violin, the woodwinds, even the organ! I know lots of songs which were recorded with a symphony orchestra. So we can see that even rock and classical music can «get along with» each other.
From time to time I listen to light cheerful songs with almost senseless lyrics — they raise my mood and help to relax. All in all, my choice of music depends on the situation.
Taking everything into account I’d like to say that music is something personal for each human — it’s not just an entertainment but a part of your soul and mind. That’s why choose what you like, not what is popular or considered to be good. You’ll be very surprised with results — maybe you’ll see everything from another point of view. And — who knows? — music will encourage you to do what you have never dared to do or inspire you to create something so striking that it will change many people’s lives.

People cannot live without music. They can listen to music everywhere even in the forest, when they walk and listen to birds singing.

Music can be classical and modern. Classical music is performed by symphonic orchestras in great halls. There are a lot of famous composers whose music is played nowadays. Classical music is serious and requires good understanding that"s why it may seem to be boring and dull for someone.

Most people prefer modern music. Modern music is performed on TV and radio. Modern music has different genres: pop, rock, disco, rap, techno and others. Most young people like dance and pop. Older people are fond of jazz, rock and pop. There are a lot of singers and music bands who perform this or that kind of music.Now there are a lot of discs and records of different performers.

The last achievement in music production is a clip. Musical clips are short films accompanied by the melody. It may be a short story telling about the message of the song or simply a great number of different pictures. People like to watch clips because it’s not only listening to music but also watching interesting things. I’m fond of music and like to listen to it because it helps me to have good relaxation.

Музыка в нашей жизни

Люди не могут жить без музыки. Её можно услышать везде, даже в лесу, когда люди гуляют и слушают пение птиц.

Музыка может быть классической и современной. Классическая музыка исполняется симфоническим оркестрами в больших залах. Есть много известных композиторов, чья музыка исполняется в наши дни. Классическая музыка - серьезная и требует хорошего понимания, поэтому некоторым людям она может показаться скучной и тупой.

Есть много певцов и музыкальных групп, которые исполняют ту или иную музыку.Сейчас есть много дисков и записей разных исполнителей.

Последнее достижение в музыке- производство клипов. Музыкальные клипы это короткометражные фильмы, сопровождаемые мелодией. Это может быть рассказ, о смысле песни или просто большое количество различных изображений. Людям нравится смотреть клипы, потому что они не только слушают музыку, но и смотрят что-то интересное.

Essay on About music

"If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music." - Albert Einstein

To my mind, people cannot live without music. We hear it everywhere: at home, in the street, in shopping malls, in any concert halls. We compose the music, listen to it and dance to it.

But what is music? Specialists explain that music isn"t only a combination of pleasant sounds. It is an art that reflects life. There are a lot of different kinds of music. Some of them appeared a long time ago, and some are modern. For example, pop and rap music, rock and indie music, industrial, disco and techno music, and, of course, never forget classic music and folk. Folk songs are very melodious and pleasant. Classical music is often associated with the music of the past. However, this style also includes music being written now, we call it neo-classical music. Rap is a modern musical style where the performer speaks or shouts out the words in rhymes to a certain drum loop. I think everyone knows Eminem or Beastie Boys.

Music plays an important role in movies. It emphasizes the depth of feelings of actors. It makes tense moments more exciting and pleasant moments more tender. Films would be boring and not interesting without music.

When I was a teenager I liked listening to pop music. I think you remember Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, Nsync and their songs about unrequited love. Recently I’m keen on rock and indie music. When I need to focus on an important task I turn on the Queen or Aerosmith. When I want to relax after a stressful day I listen to classical music. It gives me delight, pleasure and a feeling of happiness. Some pieces of classical music are really wonderful. By the way, I used to play the piano some time ago.

Music is beauty in sounds and our magic source of inspiration.

Сочинение на тему О музыке

«Если бы я не был физиком, я бы, наверное, был музыкантом». Я часто думаю в музыке. Я живу своими мечтами в музыке. Я вижу свою жизнь с точки зрения музыки». - Альберт Эйнштейн

На мой взгляд, люди не могут жить без музыки. Мы слышим ее повсюду: дома, на улице, в торговых центрах, в концертных залах. Мы сочиняем музыку, слушаем ее и танцуем под нее.

Но что такое музыка? Специалисты объясняют, что музыка — это не только сочетание приятных звуков. Это искусство, которое отражает жизнь. Существует много разных видов музыки. Некоторые из них появились давно, а некоторые совсем недавно. Например, поп и рэп-музыка, рок и инди-музыка, индустриальная, диско и техно-музыка и, конечно же, никогда не забываем классическую музыку и фолк (народная).
Народные песни очень мелодичны и приятны для прослушивания. Классическая музыка часто ассоциируется с музыкой прошлого. Однако этот стиль также включает в себя музыку, написанную сейчас, мы называем ее неоклассикой. Рэп — это современный музыкальный стиль, в котором исполнитель говорит или выкрикивает слова в рифмах под определенный цикл ударных. Я думаю, все знают Эминема или Бисти Бойс.

Музыка играет важную роль в кино. Она подчеркивает глубину чувств актеров. Она делает напряженные моменты более захватывающими, a приятные моменты — более нежными. Фильмы были бы скучными и неинтересными без музыки.

Когда я была подростком, мне нравилось слушать поп-музыку. Думаю, вы помните Backstreet Boys, Бритни Спирс, Nsync и их песни о безответной любви. В последнее время я увлекаюсь рок и инди-музыкой. Когда мне нужно сосредоточиться на важной задаче, я включаю Queen или Aerosmith. Когда я хочу расслабиться после напряженного дня, то слушаю классическую музыку. Это доставляет мне радость, удовольствие и ощущение счастья. Некоторые части классической музыки действительно замечательны. Кстати, я когда-то я играла на пианино.

Музыка — это красота в звуках и наш волшебный источник вдохновения.

The role of music in our life

I would like to tell you about the role of music in our life. The beneficial effect of music on people is well known – music evokes good feelings, removes lethargy, tiredness, cheers up and normalizes all physiological functions. It is difficult to imagine our life without music, which excites all our senses and emotions.
The connection between music and medicine dates back to the ancient history. For example, Ancient Arabs gathered musicians in hospitals. Ancient Greeks’ Apollo, the patron of arts, and his son Aesculapius, the patron of healing, symbolized the close connection between music and medicine. Our ancestors learned to select the most harmonious combinations of nature sound rhythms that would help to raise the emotional tone and to induce a person to act.

It is proved that the music of Bach and Beethoven has a therapeutic effect. It is also useful to listen to birdsongs – it creates a powerful therapeutic effect. Birdsongs create harmony in the human soul because we are genetically linked with the sounds of birds singing.

In conclusion, I want to say that role of music in human life is really far greater than we can imagine. Musical preferences of each person are different, but it does not prevent us from enjoying the music we are listening to.

Я хотел бы рассказать вам о роли музыки в нашей жизни. Благотворное влияние музыки на людей всем хорошо известно – музыка пробуждает добрые чувства, снимает вялость, усталость, поднимает настроение и нормализует все физиологические функции. Трудно представить себе жизнь без музыки, которая захватывает все наши чувства и эмоции.

Связь между музыкой и медициной уходит в древнюю историю. Например, древние арабы собирали музыкантов в больницах. Древнегреческие Аполлон, покровитель искусства, и его сын Эскулап, покровитель врачевания, символизировали тесную связь между музыкой и медициной. Наши предки научились отбирать наиболее гармоничные сочетания звуковых ритмов природы, которые бы способствовали поднять эмоциональный тонус и побудить человека к действию.

Доказано, что музыка Баха и Бетховена оказывает лечебное действие. Не менее полезно слушать пение птиц – это создает мощный терапевтический эффект. Песни птиц создают гармонию в душе человека, потому что мы генетически связаны со звуками птичьего пения.

В заключение, я хочу сказать, что роль музыки в жизни человека гораздо значительнее, чем мы себе представляем. Музыкальные предпочтения у всех разные, но это не мешает нам наслаждать музыкой, которую мы слушаем.

Can you think of a day without music? We can hear music everywhere: in the streets and at home, over the radio and on TV, in the shops and in the parks. People all over the world are fond of music. They listen to music, they dance to music, they learn to play musical instruments.

But what is music? Specialists explain that music isn"t only a combination of pleasant sounds. It is an art which reflects life. There are a lot of different kinds of music. Some of them appeared long ago, and some are modern. For example, folk music appeared long ago, but it is still alive. There are many local performers, choirs and folk groups in Russia; but perhaps the most famous singer is Nadezhda Babkina. Folk songs are very tuneful and pleasant to listen to. Classical music is often associated with the music of the past. However, this style also includes music being written now, and we may speak of modern classical music. Rap is a modern musical style where the singer speaks or shouts the words in time to music with a steady beat. Such groups as Public Enemy or House of Pain are leaders in this style.

Great Britain has produced more popular music stars than any other country. Over the last 30 years rock and pop music have been very popular in Britain. The Beatles, with their style of singing, eloquent and exciting, is still one of the most popular groups. British groups often set new trends in music. New styles, groups and singers continue to appear. Some of the more recent pop groups are Dire Straits, Eurhythmics and Spice Girls. Many of the new bands have been able to use the changes in technology to develop their music. Computerized drum machines, synthesizers and other electronic instruments are now just as popular as the piano and electric guitars.

Tastes differ. So people"s musical interests range from pop and rock music, which are extremely popular nowadays, especially among young people, to classical music and opera.

My favourite style of music is pop music, because it is breathtaking and full of energy. When I listen to pop music it makes me remember happy times and forget the problems of everyday life. It helps me to relax when I"m tired, and entertains me when I"d like to have fun. My favourite group is Abba. It was formed in 1973 in Sweden. Abba"s cheerful tunes made them international pop stars and one of the most successful groups of the seventies. Their most famous songs ("Waterloo", "Money, Money, Money", "Knowing Me, Knowing You", etc.) often topped European charts. Though the group doesn"t exist any more, it is still popular with people of all ages. I can"t but admire their style of singing. I find it fascinating and overwhelming. When I have free time I listen to their records. I also like having background music while I am working.

I don"t mind listening to dance music, especially when I go to disco clubs. This style of music is catchy and I like catchy tunes. It makes me more energetic.

It"s a pity that many young people like to listen only to modern music. As for me, I also enjoy listening to classical music. I find it tuneful and appealing. Classical music is always a complex of emotions. It gives me delight, pleasure and a sense of happiness. Some pieces of classical music are really wonderful. Not long ago I listened to the First Piano Concerto, composed by Tchaikovsky. The power of his music captivated me. The impression was overwhelming.

The music I hate is heavy metal. I find it noisy and dreadful. When I listen to this style of music it presents to my mind pictures of dark days. Though some young people are fond of this style of music, it is not to everyone"s taste. To my mind, music too loud can destroy our ears. I am indifferent to other styles of music. For example, I don"t mind listening to jazz. Improvisation is an important part of this style, that"s why a jazz song may sound a little different each time it is played. I think that jazz is a mixture of many different kinds of music, but I consider it a bit complicated.

My mother and father approve of my tastes in music. Though they prefer to listen to classical and "bard music", they think that, on the whole, modern music is not too bad. My parents agree that each generation has its own tastes.

It goes without saying that music plays a very important role in people"s lives. It reflects our moods and emotions. Music appeals to our hearts and transforms our feelings. It conquers our souls and enriches our minds. Besides, listening to music is the perfect way to spend free time and not to feel bored. You can hardly find a person who doesn"t like or need music and who never sings or dances. Music is beauty in sounds; it is our magic source of inspiration.
