ORGANIZATION OF THE WORK OF Amateurs

FOLK COLLECTIVES

for cultural workers

Dyurtyuli, 2015

Folklore(from English folk-lore- “folk wisdom”) – folk art, most often oral. Artistic, collective, creative activity people, reflecting their life, views, ideals, principles; created by the people and existing among the masses.

Modern cultural and leisure institutions can work on the use of folklore and other types of traditional folk art in several directions.

1. Cultural and leisure institutions should orient people, especially young people, towards the assimilation of spiritual values contained in folk art, for which it is necessary to use folklore and folk fine and decorative arts as widely as possible in mass artistic work.

2. Cultural and leisure institutions are designed to facilitate the search, collection, preservation and study of works of traditional folk art, for which it is necessary to organize search and research associations of ethnographers and amateurs folk art, folklore lovers, local historians, history buffs.

3. Workers of cultural and leisure institutions should act as organizers of direct artistic creativity in traditional folklore forms, which is possible within the framework of an amateur art group using folklore and folklore fine arts in your work.

When folklore is used in the work of amateur artistic groups, its development proceeds in the following way:

collecting - creative processing - execution - creation.

As a result of such development, comprehensive creative development participants of amateur groups, there is an educational impact on spectators and listeners present at concerts, as well as the development of folk art itself.

Contemporary folk group

A modern folklore group is an artistic and creative group whose repertoire is based on works of traditional folklore, received from authentic performers directly or indirectly through technical means. A folklore ensemble represents one or more local (local) singing, choreographic, instrumental folklore traditions(one of them in some cases is basic). Authentic groups are predominantly rural performers of traditional folk music, bearers of the local tradition of folk culture, transmitting and perceiving it orally from generation to generation and formed under the influence of three factors: continuity, variability, environmental selection.

Performing a folk song on stage is one of the effective ways to promote folk traditions. Transferring musical and song folklore to the stage is always difficult, since the stage version of a folk song is divorced from the original environment of birth and development. When reproducing musical and song folklore, it becomes necessary to take into account the laws that have been developed by other stage genres, in particular dramatic art. The interpretation of traditional rituals and scenes of folk festivals requires a lot of directorial work; they combine all types of folk art: singing, dancing, dramatic action. When working on the stage embodiment of musical and song folklore, the director is faced with both choirmaster tasks and the requirement of knowledge of the laws of theatricalization. These laws dictate

firstly, the formation artistic image through identifying the conflict, which is expressed in the relationships of the heroes of the poetic text, in their personal experiences.

Secondly, the organization stage action through the system expressive means theatrical art.

Basic methods of working with folklore groups

In their activities, the leaders of most amateur folklore groups are faced, on the one hand, with problems relating to vocal technique, on the other hand, with folklore problems, such as the development and reconstruction of folklore and ethnographic materials, mastering the peculiarities of the sound and dialect of a particular local tradition, the specifics of implementation elements of folk traditions into modern cultural life, features of displaying folklore samples and ritual fragments on stage, etc.

Differences in folklore traditions different areas relate not only to the repertoire of singing village ensembles, but mainly to the features of the poetic dialect (dialect), musical patterns of folklore samples (texture, rhythm, intonation structure, performing techniques), types of choreographic movement, structure of ritual complexes, etc. That is why at the present stage the closest attention should be directed to identifying the specific patterns of local traditions of one district, village council and even one village.

Depending on the type of institution on the basis of which it is organized, a folklore group can solve a number of the following tasks:

– scientific research: study of stylistic patterns of local traditions of the area, reconstruction and restoration of forms of musical and song folklore, choreographic and ceremonial forms traditional culture(teams created by research and educational institutions);

– educational and methodological: development of methods for restoring traditional folklore in modern conditions, providing educational and methodological assistance to amateur folklore groups within the framework of seminars, internships, and advanced training courses (teams created under the Republican Cultural Center);

– artistic and creative: implementation of restored forms of traditional musical culture in the modern ritual and everyday context and artistic practice(traditional rituals, holidays, celebrations, etc., concerts, lectures, educational activities) (all types of folklore groups).

Methods of work of a folklore group whose main task is reconstruction and restoration folk song traditions, are formed in the process in-depth study meaningful and formative patterns of folklore phenomena. First of all, in the process of studying song traditions, the members of the group are tasked with the most complete mastering a variety of “languages” traditional music and song culture - verbal, musical, performing, choreographic. When solving this problem, the main principle of work should be constant “contact” with the ethnographic primary source - working with expeditionary records of authentic folklore samples, as well as, if possible, communication with the bearers of the tradition themselves. Possession musical language folk song implies knowledge of the most complete body of possible variants (melodic, rhythmic, textured, etc.) of the same song, genre within local tradition and the ability to use them freely in the process of singing. The study of the choreographic language of the local tradition includes identifying the features and types of choreographic movement (round dances, dances), plasticity, “language” of gestures, etc.

In a folklore ensemble (as in an ethnographic ensemble), the lead singer is not a soloist, he is the “ringleader”, on whom the beginning of the song or even each song stanza depends. At the same time, the rest of the ensemble members are equal “doers” of the song; the quality of performance and its compliance with a particular situation (ritual, festive, etc.), the tone of the collective sound, the emotional state of the entire ensemble, as well as its energy “field” and much more, fully depends on each of them.

One of the difficult problems that most folklore groups face is the display of folklore samples on stage, and even more so the staging of fragments of ritual complexes. The stage embodiment of a folklore phenomenon is always secondary in relation to the natural situation of its existence - ritual or festive. If a collective strives for the authenticity of its performance, for compliance with tradition, then undoubtedly, at least at the initial stage of mastering folklore samples, it should look for the possibility of implementing them in a natural ritual and everyday situation - at a wedding, in rituals of the calendar cycle, in community (village or city) holidays and celebrations, in the sphere of family communication, etc.
