Phantom of the Paradise de Brian De Palma ou comment la captation sauve de la mort
2004
J’ai récemment lu sur un site web consacré à Brian De Palma, qu’il avait eu l’idée du film après qu’il ait entendu une version instrumentale d’une chanson des Beatles dans un ascenseur, ce que l’on appelait dans les années soixante-dix la muzak, une musique d’ambiance réalisée pour les lieux publics à base de tubes réarrangés.Mais Brian de Palma n’a pas seulement réalisé un film sur les relations du rock et du show-bizz et une parodie féroce des producteurs. Le film est également une réflexion très aboutie sur la façon dont les supports d’enregistrements (qu’il s’agisse de la pellicule ou du disque) ont profondément modifié les rapports entre les auteurs (au sens large), les éditeurs, les i…
Sur l’importance des disques et du recording dans la musique populaire et la techno
2005
International audience; Depuis qu'Edison a inventé le phonographe un nouveau mode de stockage de la musique est venu s'ajouter au corps des individus et à la notation : les disques. Cela signifie, qu'en plus d'aller à la musique (jouer d'un instrument ou assister à un évènement musical), la musique vient à nous. C'est donc par l'intermédiaire des enregistrements que, dans une très grande mesure, nous découvrons, aimons, apprenons et transmettons la musique. Autrement dit, ce que l'on appelait jadis, et assez improprement, la culture orale, a trouvé son médium, un objet léger et bourré d'informations précieuses qui circule et s'échange facilement.

Parole, parole, parole. Un’analisi testuale delle canzoni più vendute in Italia (1960-2019)
2023
Questo articolo esplora il contenuto delle cento canzoni italiane più vendute, nel periodo che va dal 1960 al 2019, utilizzando un approccio computazionale inedito che combina analisi testuale e analisi musicale automatica. I brani italiani da classifica hanno intercettato alcuni dei principali trend storici, culturali e sociali degli ultimi sessant’anni. Dalla ricerca emergono sei temi ricorrenti (perdono, fuga, amore passione, fatica, fantasia e vitalità) e due dimensioni di senso latenti (patire vs. agire e divertirsi vs. riflettere), che caratterizzano i testi analizzati. Dal punto di vista metodologico, emerge l’importanza discriminate del sound per comprendere sia il clima emotivo dei…
"The woman that we all need" : Kate Bush in the eyes of American fans
2015
Populaarimusiikin fanittaminen on yksi jokapäiväisistä ilmiöistä länsimaisessa kulttuurissa ja yhteiskunnassa. Kate Bush, brittiläinen muusikko, jonka ura on kestänyt yli kolme vuosikymmentä, on saavuttanut vankan fanipohjan ympäri maailmaa. Yhdysvaltalaisten Kate Bush -fanien ajatellaan kuitenkin olevan harvinaisia, sillä Bush ei ole saavuttanut Yhdysvalloissa musiikillisesti samanlaista asemaa kuten vaikkapa Euroopassa. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on tuoda esiin Kate Bushin amerikkalaisia faneja, ja tutkia, kuinka he näkevät Kate Bushin artistina. Tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan Kate Bushin statusta osallistujien elämässä ja heidän emotionaalista suhtautumistaan Bushiin ja hänen musiikkii…

Influences of rhythm- and timbre-related musical features on characteristics of music-induced movement
2013
Music makes us move. Several factors can affect the characteristics of such movements, including individual factors or musical features. For this study, we investigated the effect of rhythm- and timbre-related musical features as well as tempo on movement characteristics. Sixty participants were presented with 30 musical stimuli representing different styles of popular music, and instructed to move along with the music. Optical motion capture was used to record participants’ movements. Subsequently, eight movement features and four rhythm- and timbre-related musical features were computationally extracted from the data, while the tempo was assessed in a perceptual experiment. A subsequent c…
Las Preferencias Musicales de los Estudiantes: hacia un reconocimiento de sus Identidades Culturales
2021
Diversas tradiciones de educación musical crítica sostienen la necesidad de reconocer las identidades de los estudiantes mediante la incorporación curricular de sus preferencias musicales, las cuales pertenecen principalmente a la música popular urbana. Sin embargo, esta todavía no es utilizada de manera generalizada en los diferentes sistemas educativos y es comúnmente rechazada por los docentes, quienes la consideran estéticamente inferior. No obstante, un conocimiento en profundidad de la construcción e implicaciones psicosociales de dichas preferencias podría contribuir a aumentar su inclusión en el ámbito educativo. En este sentido, este artículo realiza una revisión bibliográfica de 1…
Music in school teaching processes through the centuries
2015
Acquisition of music terms is a significant component in a contemporary music lesson in a comprehensive school nowadays. Methodology of teaching music as a separate branch in Latvia started developing in the beginning of the 20th century with the analysis of music educators’ experience published by I. Palevics. However, music as a subject at school has a longer history therefore it would be important to explore the pedagogic role of music in different periods because during music lessons not only students’ musicality and personal development are facilitated but also the tradition of singing which includes the tradition of Song Festival is maintained. In 2008 the tradition of Baltic Song and…
