Musical competitions for birthdays. Music connected us: the best music competitions for weddings

The participants stand in a circle, and the leader asks them the question: “The neighbor has good ones...” and then names one of the body parts, for example, the elbows. The participants say in response: “Yes!”, take each other by the elbows and dance in a circle. The next question names another part of the body, holding which the participants must make a round dance circle.

The game is designed for fun company. Participants divided into pairs hang transparent bags with three chicken eggs in everyone. To the music, the couples begin a dance with elements of squats. The couple in which all the eggs are broken leaves the game. The winner is the couple with the most eggs left.

Required: Eggs

The participants of the game line up. Music is turned on, preferably cheerful. The participants begin to dance. At this time, any two people from the guests pull the rope and go towards the dancers. The players' task is to step over each time without touching the rope, which is raised higher and higher each time. The participant who lasts the longest is the winner. To make the game funnier, you can invite girls in long skirts.

Required: Rope

2-5 girls participate. A long thread reaching the floor is attached to the belt, at the end of which is attached a matchbox with a photograph of a famous actor glued to it (Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, etc.). Music starts playing. The girls' task: moving to the beat of the music, step on the box in order to break it off (beat the guy off). The one whose boxes are torn off is eliminated from the game. The winner is the one who “beats off” the largest number of guys, while at the same time preserving “her love.” She is awarded the title "Temptress".

Required: Threads, photographs of stars

You need to form a circle in which all participants stand at a distance of about one meter from each other. During the game, the music should change many times.

Music is playing. One of the guests will be the first presenter. He begins to move to the rhythm of the given music, trying to convey its character and rhythm with free, graceful movements. Everyone else repeats his movements. As soon as the music changes, the next player becomes the leader, standing, for example, to the right of the first. His task is to express new dance music in movements, and everyone else will repeat after him.

The dancing continues until all the guests try themselves as a dance master.

Required: Discs with a variety of music

The players stand in two circles: the inner one is formed by women, the outer one by men. There should be one more person in the outer circle than in the inner circle. To the music, both circles move in different sides. The music has ended - the players from the outer circle must embrace the player from the inner circle. A woman is a “lucky ticket”. Whoever didn’t get the “ticket” is the “hare” and performs some task.

This simple children's fun is also successful in adult company. A broom is launched across the hall. The presenter says at this time: “You fly, cheerful broom, further and further along the hands. Whoever has a broom left dances for us!” Thus, 5-6 people are selected. They dance the “Dance of the Little Swans” together. At the end everyone gets small prizes.

The traditional Russian way of having fun: singing your favorite songs in chorus with an accordion (or without it) is still popular, especially among the older generation, but new musical entertainment, games and competitions are being added that add variety, warmth and enthusiasm to the holiday entertainment programs.

The most favorite musical entertainment at the holiday is: karaoke, various adaptations of songs, music quizzes, song re-renditions with tasks, or performance of the text of a famous song in a different style: rap ,folk, musical, etc. If going music company, then the whole scenario can be conceived as a show, let the guests demonstrate their talents all evening - for example, “Become a Star” (you can watch).

Musical games and competitions from our selection are very diverse: completely new and long-loved, lyrical and funny, table and game.

1. Musical game "Noise Makers".

(to download - click on the file)

6. Musical warm-up.

Remember the KVN “Warm-up” competition, and arrange the same improvisation at the festival, only not from jokes, but from songs. Teams must exchange questions and answers from songs, i.e. one team remembers a question line from songs, the other an affirmative line that matches the meaning. Then they change roles. For example, the question: “Why are you standing there, swaying, thin rowan?”, the answer: “I’m drunk and drunk, I won’t make it home!” Or: “Where are you, Marusya, who are you walking with?” - “...I’m walking along the sleepers, again walking home along the sleepers out of habit.”

You can play until your imagination runs out.

7. Musical compliments.

The program of any holiday, and especially a corporate one, can include a musical exchange of compliments between the male and female half of the room. This is very simple to do: the female team remembers flattering lines from songs about men, and the men, on the contrary, sing excerpts from songs that can be regarded as compliments to the ladies. And one by one they begin to exchange these musical compliments.

As an example of praise to gentlemen, the presenter can recite the following lines from A. Sviridova’s song:

“How good! You can trust the man!

How good! And don’t think about anything!”

Like a song nod to beautiful ladies - a verse from Yu. Antonov’s hit:

“Attention, men! There is no reason to laugh!

Today, women are a match for us in every task,

And we, of our own free will, teach the roles of others,

The winner is the team that names the most musical compliments within ten minutes, although there is no need to count, let friendship win.

This stream of song compliments can be directed in one direction, for example, to women's holiday March 8, arrange musical congratulations- a medley that will consist of excerpts of compliment songs.

8. Song encyclopedia.

For this song rehearsal, you can divide the hall into several teams (depending on the number of guests) and prepare cards in advance with the intended themes of the songs: animals, birds, plants, travel, love, and so on. Each team draws three to five cards. Five to seven minutes are given to think.

Then, by drawing lots for themes, each team presents its musical illustrations, for example, the theme “Stones”: “Give me a moonstone”, “He has a granite pebble in his chest”, “I can do everything, I can do everything - my heart is not a stone.” It is allowed to sing either one line from a song or an entire verse or chorus. The main thing is that it corresponds to the meaning of the task.

For each answer given to the topic - a point. The winners are determined by the amount of points earned.

9. "Orchestra of virtual instruments."

From the guests (10 - 15 people) we create an Orchestra of virtual instruments - everyone draws a card with a written instrument, each of them, of course, has a different one. Participants must depict playing instruments very expressively, so that it is clear who is playing what music.

Then the presenter explains that he will be a conductor, but also play the drum. However, the leading conductor will always “switch” to any other instrument, and the player whose instrument is this moment portrayed by the presenter, must immediately stop his movements.

In this way, those “musicians” who “missed” the leader’s new movement gradually drop out of the game of the virtual orchestra. The most attentive player wins.

10. Musical ABC.

A wedding is not only a registration of marriage and a feast, but also entertainment. What else, besides music, fits so organically into the cheerful and noisy atmosphere of the festival? Music competitions at weddings are the most popular. They do not require specific skills or abilities, because popular musical compositions are heard everywhere.

Regardless of whether the bride and groom choose a traditional celebration or prefer a more informal setting, there are many music competitions to suit each style of celebration.

There are many games that are played to music; you can choose from competitions that have already been tested over the years, or come up with your own.

The main thing is that they coincide with the theme of the celebration, the worldview of the guests and newlyweds. Therefore, it is worth choosing modern songs or those that were so popular before that older relatives constantly sing them.

Otherwise, the contestants may not recognize the melody or the meaning of the words.

The simplest and at the same time famous music competition is “Guess the Melody”. To do this, you need to stock up on music from which the words have been removed.

If there are many older guests at the wedding, then preference is given to Russian-language songs that were popular 10-20 years ago.

But if the holiday is created for young people, then you should choose modern songs, foreign or domestic. National compositions that are well known enough to be able to guess their motive are also good. It is better not to use melodies from rap, most often they are very similar to each other.

In such songs, the emphasis is on words, so the arrangement is rather sparse and can mislead guests.

The second competition, which will appeal to both guests and newlyweds, is “Remember the Song.”

To do this, several teams are created that must take turns singing the words of a composition on a given topic.

• Those who remember the most songs will win.
• Topics for the competition:
• wedding songs;
• where they sing about love;

those that mention the names of the newlyweds; telling about the profession of the newlyweds (if it is popular). This competition has more

difficult option

Song competitions - the funniest options

In addition to competitions related to music, there are also games that are based on the lyrics of songs. And it doesn’t matter who wins, the main thing is that all the guests laugh during the process.

For such competitions, it is advisable to invite a qualified presenter - it is almost impossible to conduct them yourself.

Without special training and developed skills, even the most fun situation will look boring. In order to involve all the guests, only a few sheets of paper with selected words are needed in the competition to congratulate the newlyweds.

According to the rules, the invitees must create a song in which they congratulate the newlyweds on this significant day, but to do this, use only the given words or phrases.

There can be 2 teams, but 3 is best to maintain excitement, but not provoke rivalry between guests.

Depending on the complexity and number of words, 5-10 minutes are given for writing. After this, each team chooses one representative who will sing it to the newlyweds.

It is best to warn guests that they will evaluate not only the text itself, but also how artistically it was presented.

The main judges in this competition are the bride and groom, who will decide who to give the prize to.

You will not need any special props to run this competition.

To begin with, the host forms several teams, each of which should have 3-5 guests. After that, he explains the rules and says a phrase from any song, the first team must answer it with a line from another song. The next group does the same, but for the words of the previous one. This creates a unique and funny song. According to the rules, you must answer very quickly.

Those who do not answer within 5 seconds receive a penalty; if half a minute is reached, the team is eliminated.

This happens until the last group remains, or if two teams cannot continue the battle. This is very fun competition

, it is important that the operator captures it as a memory. Therefore, it is necessary to warn him in advance about long-term filming. To play the “Broadcasting Crown” you will need a paper hat or crown and a piece of music. The host first asks what the bride is thinking about, pretending to put a crown on her head. On background

The first excerpt is included. The toastmaster does the same with the groom and guests. There are no winners or losers in this competition, it is aimed at entertaining everyone present.

How to hold a dance competition at a wedding

Every holiday involves dancing, and weddings are no exception. But the advantages of this celebration are that, in addition to simple traditional dances, various competitions can be held. The tasks that guests perform to the music can be very different: from serious, requiring concentration, to absolutely comical.

It all depends on general atmosphere and what kind of reaction you want to evoke from others.

To conduct the “Strange Movements” competition you will need:

1. 4-5 chairs, depending on the number of participants.
2. 4-5 cuts of melodies.
3. Participants.

Chairs are placed on the platform at intervals of 50 cm. Participants are asked to sit on chairs, explaining that they will have to dance to music without getting up from them. The one who does it least artistically is eliminated.

At the next stage, the task is made more difficult for those remaining - they should not move their legs, they can only move their torso and arms. Again, the weakest performance guarantees elimination. After this, they are prohibited from moving their arms; they can only move their head or torso. When only two remain, they are given the task of “dancing” with facial expressions.

The one who does it the most funny will win.

To conduct the “Balls” competition you will need:

1. Several pairs of guests.
2. Balloons filled with helium.
3. Ribbons or thick threads, 1.5 m long.
4. Music for slow dancing.

One end of the tape is attached to the ball, and the other is tied to the woman's ankle. The girl and the guy stand opposite each other and clasp their hands. After this, the music is turned on and the couples begin to dance. The main task is to burst the opponents' balloons, but at the same time save your own. You can use everything for this except your hands, which should not open. If one of the pair lets go of the partner’s hand, then the pair is considered eliminated.

The winners are those who are left alone on the dance floor.

Very funny competition for the wedding “Musical Hat”:

It is important to select competitions and music so that they are suitable for the age of the competitors. The younger the guests, the more active they can be. This means that the melodies can be more incendiary.

Music competitions are important because they amuse guests and newlyweds, so they must be performed at any wedding so that guests do not get bored. For this, it is best to hire a toastmaster, because he has experience and can present the most boring situation as funny and amusing. It’s impossible not to consider cool instruments that will lift the mood of the guests and remain in the memory of each of the participants. Would you like to see music competitions at your wedding?

The heads of enterprises, to the best of their ideas about joint organized recreation, amazed the imagination of those present with the scale of the events and became heroes of their time. Gradually, the tendency towards scale balanced out " production necessity“, and today corporate parties themselves and music competitions for corporate parties are an important component of the life of the company, which, nevertheless, is associated with great responsibility.

What was it like 30 years ago?

The idea of ​​spending leisure time together is much more time-consuming than the word “corporate party” that is already familiar to many. The scenarios for such events were not varied, and often everything happened like this:

• At the trade union meeting, a person responsible for holding the holiday was appointed (he, in fact, was the “chief out of breath”, who gave instructions and controlled their implementation).
• Members of the team received tasks to organize the feast (some purchased food, others had to impress with their own culinary masterpieces).
• It was necessary to indicate who the main speaker would be (the speech was prepared especially carefully, improvisations were allowed only occasionally).
• The “cultural sector” took over the entertainment side.

Music competitions for corporate events. And from now on, in more detail...

Naturally, Soviet time“imprinted” on entertainment, which previously consisted of a few standard competitions and a couple of lively songs. An accordion, button accordion, piano, and accordion were used as the background. What can we say, musical games for “corporate parties” of that time were fun, but monotonous and predictable. Creativity was categorically excluded - everything had to fit within the framework of the “code of the Soviet man.”

In rare cases (usually for large-scale events), enterprises allowed themselves to invite some artist, and such events were necessarily captured in general photographs and in newspapers of a district or regional scale.

Later, in the 90s, when the word “corporate” burst into the countries of the former CIS, small and large firms Celebrating significant holidays was considered a matter of honor. And, I must say, many spared no expense for this! Famous artists, professional presenters, chic restaurants - the scale of some corporate events was grandiose. What can we say, there was a certain amount of ostentation in all of this...

“Obligation” or a long-awaited event?

The attitude towards corporate events today is ambiguous: many perceive them as an “obligation”, which, moreover, is sometimes associated with not very unpleasant events (the “heroes” of the celebration learn from their employees on the second day). Needless to say, such an opinion is a natural result of a poorly organized event?

But let's not talk about sad things. There is a celebration ahead, which means it’s time to think about it, prepare music competitions for corporate events and do a lot of other things. First, decide whether you will do it yourself or give the “reins of power” to professionals.

We create an entertainment program

Whether this will be done with the help of third parties, or whether it will be done by proactive employees of the company, it is important to consider the following factors:

• Specifics of the event. They will dictate both the theme of the entertainment numbers and the contingent of their participants. For example, a New Year’s corporate party can be safely “diluted” cool games with revealing attributes like men's underpants. But you should still congratulate women on March 8 gallantly, and save a couple of “frank” competitions just in case.
• The scale of the corporate event. If it involves the participation of guests and is of a light official nature, then a pile of competitions is unlikely to be appropriate. And in general: before selecting numbers, it wouldn’t hurt to at least “virtually” get to know the guests.
• Type of activity of the company. In fact, this point is not decisive, since lawyers, doctors, and builders all want to have a good time during their vacation. However, this point can be taken as a basis when preparing an entertainment program.

What would surprise you?

Actually, no one has canceled personal initiative, and today there are no strict limits set for corporate competitions. On the contrary, creativity is encouraged! Will it be original musical number for a corporate event performed by employees, or professionals will be involved in the event - it all depends on the goals and capabilities. So don't let it get lost interesting ideas– and the holiday will not be boring and monotonous.

We are sure that your team will embrace the original idea with a bang—surprise to your heart’s content! And we offer a selection best competitions for various corporate events. Use them in “ready form” or take them as a basis for “author’s” numbers – it’s up to you.

Games with music

Essentially, these are competitions that do not assume the musical abilities of the participants. Fast compositions serve as a “groovy” background in games.

"Sweetie"

A simple but very exciting competition involves everyone present. To the accompaniment of fast music, guests pass candy to each other under the table. The driver must catch some player in her pass. Taken by surprise, he takes the “reins of power” into his own hands.

"In a plate"

The competition is held during the feast. The driver pronounces any letter, and the participants in the game quickly name the object starting with it. The main condition: these items must be on the plate. The one who called first is the one who leads. The main prize goes to the one whose letter does not “found” an object.

"Ring Throw"

You need several to play empty bottles and the same number of full ones (with different drinks). Participants must throw a ring, previously cut out of thick cardboard, from a distance of three meters. There will be exactly as many winners as there are full bottles prepared.

"Crocodile"

2 teams take part in the game. The task of the first team is to depict some concept using pantomime. Members of the second team must “decipher” it in no more than 3 attempts. The competition does not involve winners, although it can be determined by the results of the points scored. It's best to make a wish idioms, names of celebrities, proverbs.

"Burenka"

For the competition you need medical gloves, in which holes must first be made with a thin needle. Water is poured into the gloves, and the participants in the game must “milk” as much milk as possible. The one who does it best wins.

"Corporate Bunny"

The popular raffle competition requires little preparation and has several variations. Here is one of them. The main role is given to some guest who has left the hall. During his absence, the presenter warns those present about the upcoming competition and asks them not to use the word “hare” under any circumstances. The returning guest is declared a fugitive who has been at fault and will have to “atone for his guilt” by participating in the competition. The guest must portray a hare (the host informs the main character of the competition about this in a whisper), and those present will have to “guess” what kind of animal it is. The “torment” of the hare continues until the guests’ imagination runs out.

Singing, singing along, re-singing, or playing music to the fullest!

Musical competitions for corporate events, where the vocal abilities of guests will be used, need to be approached especially responsibly. Not everyone present is able to overcome the barrier that involves “testing” for vocal abilities, albeit in such an informal setting. Therefore, when preparing music competitions, take into account the following important points:

• It is best to choose several neutral games related to collective performance. As practice shows, such rooms are received with a bang by all guests, and no one experiences any complexes.
• For individual competitions where solo singing is expected, the right way out will pre-determine the participants. You can find out about their readiness to perform something in public during the communication process.

Such music competitions will help to diversify a corporate event.

"Medley"

Participants are selected from among those who love to sing. The presenter voices the first verse (the song is chosen randomly), the players continue it sequentially. In this competition, two conditions are required: there should be no pauses between verses, and each subsequent performance includes at least one word from the previous one.

"Choral singing"

Under the guidance of the presenter, a song is selected that will be performed in chorus by those present at the corporate party. When the command “Quiet!” is heard, the guests shut up and continue singing the song to themselves. At the command “Loud!” choral performance resumes. Since the tempo changes during the “quiet” singing, it turns out that “some go to the forest, some go for firewood” - the game ends with friendly laughter.

"Small Choir"

Those wishing to participate in the competition should be prepared for the fact that the “main participants” of the game will be...their knees, where funny faces will be drawn. The continuation of the “image” will be the shins, which are decorated with various available materials. Next, a sheet is used, which the assistants first pull in front of the participants and then raise to their knees after the leader announces: “From behind the forest, from behind the mountains, a small choir has come to us.” The performance of ditties, children's songs and popular compositions in this way goes off with a bang. This is a competition from the category of music competitions for corporate events.

"The Reluctant Stripper"

The number of players is odd. After pairs are formed, the “odd one” becomes a stripper. Couples dance for 2-3 minutes, and when the music stops, partners change. At this time, the stripper has the right to grab the first participant he comes across and create a dance couple with him. So you need to do everything very quickly! Those who are left “out of work” will have to try themselves as a stripper. It’s easy to imagine what kind of “suits” the players end up in.

A little about prizes

Corporate events provide special semantic content, so prizes for competition winners should have “subtext”. The material component is in last place. The main thing is that it is fun and “cool”. The winner of a music competition gets a tray of eggs (to improve his vocal abilities), the stripper gets a pole... for a boat (let him practice on it). In general, there is no limit to your imagination! The main desire!

Music always and everywhere accompanies us, reflecting our mood like no other form of art. There are few people who do not at least mentally hum their favorite melodies.

It is impossible to imagine a holiday without music. Of course, competitions that require encyclopedic knowledge and musical education are not suitable for an ordinary group of fun-loving friends, relatives, or colleagues: why put someone in an awkward position? Musical games for adults should be fun, relaxed, and focused solely on the love of singing and music.

National music game karaoke

In recent decades, the musical entertainment of karaoke has truly become popular. In a holiday park, on the coast, in a square on a fair day, at a birthday party, at a wedding, a microphone and a ticker screen attract crowds of people who want to try their hand at singing, support performers or just have fun. There are even television projects in which all interested passersby are invited to participate.

Guess the melody

On corporate parties men and women willingly participate in the game, which also became popular thanks to the famous TV show “Guess the Melody.” Two participants or two teams declare to the presenter how many first notes they can guess a well-known melody from. If players manage to do this, they receive points. If the melody is not guessed from the first three to five notes (I must say that three is not enough even for an expert), the opponent makes his bid.

The round lasts until the melody is called or until 10-12 notes, when the presenter, having not received an answer, calls the piece himself. Then it is performed by backing players or professional vocalists, which decorates the event.

A simpler version of the game is to guess the artist or. To do this, the toastmaster selects fragments of not the most famous hits. The age of the participants must be taken into account. Those who are 30-40 are not interested in the music of teenagers, just as they will not know the songs of the 60s and 70s.

Musical casino

4-5 players are invited to participate. The equipment you will need is the familiar top with an arrow, as in “What? Where? When?”, and a table with sectors for tasks. Tasks are two or three clues contained in thesis or questions that will help players guess the name of the singer.

The trick is that the questions should not be too serious, rather humorous. For example: “He thinks that it’s better in no way instead of somehow” (A. Buynov), “Because of his shocking appearance and hoarseness in his voice, this singer scares naughty children” (N. Dzhigurda), “He’s the only one like that in the whole country” (N . Basque).

If the player guesses correctly, a section of the song is played. The winner will be rewarded with the right to order the next musical composition evenings.

Song in pantomime

One of the players must exclusively use gestures to depict the content of some lines of the song. His teammates must guess what kind of song the “suffering” one is trying to “voice” with their pantomime. In order to “make fun” of the wriggling pantomime performer, you can persuade the guessing participants in advance not to name the correct answer under any circumstances, but in order, on the contrary, to simplify the task, you can simply say the name of the performer or. Two or three teams play, 2 songs are offered for each team. The reward for winning is the honorable right to sing karaoke together.

Musical games for adults at the table

Musical table games for adults keep an audience as long as it's interesting. Therefore, to the famous competition "Who will outsing whom" you need to be creative. These should not just be songs that contain feminine or feminine lyrics. male names, names of colors, dishes, cities...
It’s more interesting when the toastmaster suggests the beginning: “What!..” The players sing “Why are you standing, swaying, thin rowan tree...” or another song with such a word at the beginning. Meanwhile, the maestro, as if by chance, can play several notes from different songs - sometimes this hint helps to avoid unwanted pauses.

By the way, a video example of such a game is a scene of a wolf with a choir of bunny boys from the famous series of cartoons “Well, wait a minute!” Let's look and be moved!

Another fun music game just for fun is "Add-ons". The toastmaster offers everyone a familiar song. While he explains the conditions, this melody plays quietly. While performing the song, the participants add funny phrases at the end of each line, for example, “with socks”, “without socks”, alternating them. (With a tail, without a tail, under the table, on the table, under a pine tree, on a pine tree...). It will turn out like this: “In the field there was a birch tree... in socks. The curly-haired woman stood in the field... without socks...” You can invite one team to prepare phrases for “adding”, and the other to choose a song and then sing together.

Musical games for adult parties are good because they quickly lift the mood of the whole company and help you relax, leaving behind only pleasant emotions and vivid impressions of the occasion. great holiday spent in the company of friends.
