Appreciation of the song "Where is Spring"
"Where is Spring" is a hymn of spring, and the author skillfully uses the chirping of orioles to express the beauty of spring. The song is cheerful and lively, and a lot of pauses make the music look cheerful and capable.
The lyrics describe the colorful spring scenery in the form of question and answer, which is a combination of dynamic and static, with distinct levels, showing a beautiful picture of spring scenery; Tell children to love nature, be good at observing life and find beautiful things in life.
This song is in a natural major mode and has two parts. The melody is fresh and natural, cheerful and hearty, and the rhythm is dominated by quarter notes. However, the rhythm pattern of "the first sixteen and the last eight" appears many times in the "going round and round" of the interlining, which seems to imitate the crisp singing of orioles and is lifelike, which increases the jumping of music.
