Psychological impacts of different types of music
On May 16 the English elective groups of 10th and 11th graders under the leadership of Silva Harutyunyan carried out an open class. They told about the psychological effects that different types of music have on people. The most interesting thing was that at first they talked about the psychological effects of music, and then they substantiated what was said practically by playing a musical instrument.
Nane Martirosyan and Levon Tsaturyan talked about how classical music calms the human nervous system, relieves tension and inspires hope for the future. Nane delivered the first pleasant and practical surprise. She sat down at the piano and played Chopin's Prelude. The impression was stunning. First, you hear how 10-11 graders of an Armenian school talk about classical music in English with a fairly high level of knowledge of the language, and then they play Chopin on the piano to make what they say more solid.
Hasmik Varderesyan spoke about Armenian national musical instruments and music. She said that Armenia is a small country, but the landscape of our country is diverse: mountains, foothills, plains. So is music. It is brave and fighting in one case, and in another case it is mild and expresses tenderness. Hasmik spoke with particular enthusiasm about duduk.
The students and teachers in
the audience of that day sitting in the small hall got great satisfaction when
Emil Harutyunyan started his performance with his electric guitar. He showed
without words the influence of the Progressive Alternative Metal music style. I
didn't really understand that new style of music, but it was obvious that the
people of the 21st century, the learners, liked it very much.
Aram Minasyan got on the
stage and started talking about Flamenco guitar musical style. There was so
much seriousness, love and dedication in Aram's words and guitar sounds. The
psychological effect of flamenco is just that: self-expression and devotion of
the seriousness of romantic love.
