“SOLFEGGIO COURSE” BY TEACHERS OF THE CHINESE CONSERVATORY AS PART OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A MODERN APPROACH TO TEACHING SOLFEGGIO IN THE PRC

The purpose of the article is to analyse the “Solfeggio Course” textbook by teachers of the Chinese Conservatory of Music, which is the basis for teaching solfeggio at the highest level of music education in China. The textbook is based on the idea of a step-by-step system of teaching solfeggio; it synthesises the best aspects of Western methods of teaching this academic discipline with national traditions. This is manifested in the parallel mastering of the European major-minor tonality and pentatonic modes with the involvement of musical material from the works of European composers and Chinese music. When choosing teaching methods, the specifics of thinking of Chinese musicians are taken into account, and integrative connections of solfeggio with other academic disciplines of the musical-theoretical cycle are also involved. The “Solfeggio Course” textbook allows you to effectively master the discipline of solfeggio in accordance with modern European requirements for it.
