Elements of Music Harmony in Compositions by Fernando Sor and their Implementation in Songs for Children on the Guitar

Cilj ovog diplomskog rada je upoznati studente Učiteljskih fakulteta, buduće učitelje i odgajatelje koji u svojem glazbenom obrazovanju i kasnije u radu upotrebljavaju gitaru, s elementima harmonizacije u skladbama Fernanda Sora te ih potaknuti na njihovu primjenu u obogaćivanju obrada pjesama za djecu. U ovom diplomskom radu predstavlja se jedan od najvažnijih skladatelja za gitaru, posebice razdoblja klasicizma u gitarskoj literaturi. Fernando Sor veliki je skladatelj 19. stoljeća za gitaru i najveći majstor klasične harmonizacije u povijesti gitare. Elementi harmonizacije koji su analizirani u odabranim skladbama iz opsežnog repertoara Fernanda Sora primijenjeni su u obogaćivanju odabranih pjesama za djecu koje su u programu kolegija Glazbeni praktikum – gitara 1, 2, 3 i 4; kolegijima Gitara 1 i 2 te Instrumentalna pratnja s pjevanjem – gitara 1 i 2 na Učiteljskom fakultetu Sveučilišta u Zagrebu. Pri tome se nije željelo previše izaći iz očekivanog nivoa koje učitelj odnosno odgajatelj stekne kroz cjelokupnu nastavu instrumenta jer je namjera rada da bude upotrebljiv te da oplemeni nastavu Glazbene kulture. Na taj način moguće je produbiti percepciju učenika naspram gitare i glazbe općenito.The aim of this paper is to introduce students of the Faculties of Teacher Education, future teachers and preschool teachers who use the guitar in their music education and later in work, with the elements of music harmony in compositions by Fernando Sor and to encourage students to implement those elements in order to enrich arranged songs for children. In this paper, one of the most important guitar composers is presented, particularly from the period of classicism in the guitar literature. Fernando Sor is the great composer of the 19th century for the guitar and the biggest maestro of classical harmonization in the history of the guitar. Elements of music harmony which are analyzed in the chosen songs from the extensive repertoire of Fernando Sor are implemented into the chosen songs for children which are prescribed for the course Music Practicum – Guitar 1, 2, 3, 4; courses Guitar 1 and 2 as well as Musical Accompaniment with Voice – Guitar 1 and 2 at the Faculty of Teacher Education, University of Zagreb. Thereby, the intention was not to overly step out from the expected level which the teacher, that is, the preschool teacher acquire throughout the entire academic education for the instrument because the intention of the paper is to be usable and to improve the Music culture lessons. In that way, it is possible to deepen the perception of learners about the guitar and music in general
