Abstract
La existencia de un vínculo entre la destreza lectora, la capacidad auditiva y
la música ha sido descrita en numerosos estudios. Leer un texto significa
sonorizar un mensaje escrito, ya que sin sonidos, en la lectura silenciosa es
la voz interior del lector, no puede haber acceso desde los símbolos escritos
al léxico y a la comprensión del mismo. Tanto en la lectura en voz alta como
en la lectura silenciosa, las grafías que descifra el ojo necesitan apoyarse
en elementos sonoros como lo son los fonemas o sonidos, el acento, el
ritmo, la duración silábica y la entonación. Además los elementos acústicos
como la intensidad, la duración, el tono y el timbre contribuyen a la
expresión de las emociones. Todos ellos son parámetros acústicos que se
encuentran también en las melodías. Con el objeto de mostrar que el
trabajar en la enseñanza de lenguas con elementos sonoro-musicales
constituye un paso inicial de gran relevancia para después ir desarrollando
la comprensión lectora, analizaremos la interrelación entre lenguaje y
música, identificaremos los 5 componentes de la destreza lectora y
explicaremos el cómo las melodías pueden optimizar el desarrollo de la
capacidad lectora.
The existence of a link between reading and listening skills and music has been described in numerous studies. To read a text means to provide a sound system for a written message as without sounds, in silent reading it is the reader’s inner voice, no access from written symbols to lexical items can occur, what would hinder comprehension. Both in reading aloud and silent reading, the graphemes which the eye deciphers are supported by the sound elements: phonemes or sounds, accent, rhythm, and intonation. Acoustic elements such as intensity, duration, tone and pitch contribute to the expression of emotions, as well. They are all acoustic parameters that are also present in melodies. With the aim of showing that working with these musical elements in foreign language teaching constitutes a first step of great relevance in order to develop reading comprehension, we analyze the interrelationship between language and music, identify the five components of the reading skill and explain how melodies can optimize the development of learners’ reading ability.
