FEATURES OF THE MUSICAL POETIC TEXT OF A LULLABY ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE URAL TRADITION

Abstract

At all times, the mother becomes the main educator of a person from early childhood. The peculiarity of lullabies is that they are created and performed by adults, without the direct influence of the child. The main task of a lullaby is to directly lull and calm the child; the performance of lullabies also has a developmental function that can harmoniously develop the mental and physical state of the baby, as well as create a positive emotional background in him. The article studies one of the most important genres of maternal folklore – a lullaby, which examines the features of a musical poetic text using the example of the Ural tradition. A lullaby is chosen as the object of study; the subject of the study is features of the musical poetic text. The article discusses issues of collecting and classifying lullabies, characters and images of lullabies, identifying poetic features, as well as verse and syllabary forms of lullabies. The basic support for the research material is the work of T.I. Kaluzhnikova “Traditional maternal and children’s song folklore of the Russian population of the Middle Urals”, as well as the textbook by F.I. Kapitsa, T.M. Kolyadich “Russian children’s folklore”.
