The offender: Your Honour, I am a professional musician. I used to teach music at
school. I just adore it. I like all kinds of music: classical, pop music, rock, jazz.
I can’t say that I’m a sick man. In the morning I’m full of energy. But when my neighbour Den comes from school and starts listening to this awful music, my health gets worse. My blood pressure is rising and I often have heart attacks.
The music, my neighbour listens to, can’t be called music. It’s just the repetition of dreadful sounds . When I hear them, I get angry, lose my temper and want to break Den’s recorder. I called the doctor. He explained that all these symptoms
are caused by modern music. I can show the court the certificate to prove that
I’m right.

I think he is a quite strange person. I usually come home and start listening to my favourite music. Every time when I do it he starts knocking at the wall and cries “Stop it! Stop it!” Then an ambulance appears near our block of flat. After that I hear that someone comes to his flat. Once I wanted to see who it was. I looked into the peephole and saw a doctor standing at my neighbour’s door.

The offender 3: I’m a very smart student. I study very hard. I’m especially interested in literature. Our teachers of English and Ukrainian demand using
perfect language and lots of synonyms. But when I hear the song “Сірьожине пирожино’ by band TIK I ask myself “What language is it?” It’s a mixture of Ukrainian and Russian.
At my university we are punished by bad marks if we use the same words. We must use synonyms. The song like this makes me nervous.
More over I can’t slee
Тhе judge: Have you got any questions to the offender? The side of defending?
The side of prosecuting?
The prosecutor : I’ve got a question, your Honour.
The Judge: It’s your right. Ask the offender.
The prosecutor: Tell the court, Olga, does the accused( the modern music)
Influence your state of health?
The offender 3:
Judge: Are the sides ready for debates?
The prosecutor: Yes, your Honour.
The defender: Yes, your Honour.
The Judge: Now, the prosecutor will speak.
The prosecutor: Thanks.Your Honour, respected jury. We’ve heard the case.
Don’t get lost. We have a dangerous criminal, who doesn’t want to change his way of life. Today the modern music has caused the depravation of physical and mental health of only four people. But tomorrow it can threaten the health of
all the mankind. Modern music deserves a severe punishment.
Judge: Is that all?
The prosecutor: Yes. That’s all, your Honour.
Judge: The defender,please.
The defender: Thank you, your Honour. Our music is in the hands of business. The music is not for people. It’s the way to earn money. Nobody wants to pay for good music. The producers of the concerts would better show the group that plays bad music rather than to pay for good one. To write good music , it’s necessary to work constantly at it. But a musician has to do all kinds of work besides music. Because nobody pays for music.
The culture should be under the state control. A committee of qualified specialists should be in charge of checking the content of the songs and the level of music. For a song to be perfect a talented composer must compose music, an experienced author should write the words and then a qualified singer should sing. Now we have here in one. Not a very good musician is a composer, an author and a singer. And the result is a song that can live for only a month.
The problem is a commercial approach to music. Businessmen but not musicians work at producing centres. Music is just a product for them. Their task is to install little money but to sell it for a good price.
Modern music mustn’t be punished. It’s a victim that should be helped and supported.
The Judge: Now, the accused, you have listened to all the accusations against you. Do you confess you are guilty?
The accused: No, I don’t. I’m not guilty.
The Judge: You have the last word. What can you say in your defense?
The accused: Am I guilty? Me? You are always listening to me when you are happy or in a bad mood. You sing and dance. And now you want to blame me?
My task is to teach , to make people better, to lift them to a higher level. It’s
difficult. It’s much easier to descend them to the lower level. For business it’s beneficial to feed customers with not qualified music. It’s easier to sell it.
Now there are lots of talented singers and wonderful songs. I am not to blamed
that they are not on the stage and you can’t admire them.
I need your help but not accusation.
The judge: The Jury, now you will come into the jury room to make a single right
decision.
(……a short pause for jury…….)
