Moritz Hauptmann in München. Hochschuldidaktik im 19. Jahrhundert
2014
Dass Moritz Hauptmanns Buch Die Natur der Harmonik und der Metrik zur Basis institutionalisierter musiktheoretischer Unterweisung wurde, wie an der Koniglich bayerischen Musikschule in Munchen nachweisbar, mag angesichts des hohen Abstraktionsgrads dieser Schrift verwundern. Besonders der Unterricht in der ersten Dekade an der Musikschule kann als einzigartiges Exempel der systematischen Anwendung Hauptmanns in der Lehre verstanden werden. Der Beitrag erortert die Bedeutung der Schrift Hauptmanns fur die Lehre der wichtigsten Fachvertreter nach Grundung der Musikschule (Peter Cornelius und Josef Gabriel Rheinberger), sowie – als Verfallsgeschichte – in der Zeit nach Cornelius’ fruhem Tod un…
Crítica musical y pensamiento estético en la España de la Restauración: José María Esperanza y Sola (1834-1905)
2015
One of the most outstanding figures of music criticism in the Spanish Restoration was José María Esperanza y Sola (1834-1905), active for thirty years, from the late 1860s until the end of the century. During this period, Esperanza collaborated in different periodical publications and, particularly, “La Ilustración Española y Americana”, from whose pages he informed about the most important musical events celebrated in Madrid, judged according to a conservative aesthetic criterion, opposed to any novelty that infringe the traditional music system. On the basis of Esperanza´s thought, our study analyzes the different subjects that constitute his journalistic production.La crítica musical en …
Estudio comparativo de dos metodologías aplicadas para la comprensión de la música contemporánea en la educación secundaria obligatoria
2016
In this paper we try to discover which methodology is more appropriate for the comprehension of the contemporary music in the Secondary Education. For that purpose by a quasi-experiment, mixed, qualitative and quantitative, the preserved results through the application of two different methodologies have been compared: a traditional one base on the masterly class and another based in different kinds of audition. The obtained results after the didactical application on the quantitative level weren´t significant, however, on the qualitative level we could also observe that the pupils who subjected to that methodology had more advantageous results regarding to the comprehension of the contempo…
Das kompositorische Verfahren in Jean Moutons Quadrupelkanon Nesciens mater virgo virum
2012
Anhand der kompositorischen Probleme, die sich bei der Konzeption mehr als zweistimmiger Kanons ergeben, wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie der konkrete Kompositionsprozess um 1500 ausgesehen haben konnte. Eine Analyse von Jean Moutons Motette Nesciens mater zeigt, dass die Wechselwirkungen zwischen Kanonkonzeption, Klangfolge und melodischer Gestaltung eine simultane Kompositionsweise voraussetzen, in der die Klangfolge wechselnde Verhaltnisbestimmungen als Resultat und Voraussetzung der kontrapunktischen Konfiguration erfahrt: Der Wechsel von der Sukzessiv- zur Simultankonzeption erscheint in Bezug auf komplexe Kanonbildungen als ein verfahrenstechnisches Erfordernis.
The process of nonverbal communication between choir and conductor
2015
El objetivo de este trabajo ha sido comprobar la influencia de los elementos de comunicación no verbal entre cantantes de coro y el director en los resultados de la interpretación musical. Se realizó un experimento con un coro no profesional (N=25; 15 mujeres y 10 hombres). El coro que realizó el experimento (Lulea Kammerkor) es considerado un excelente coro de extracción social media-alta con estrictas condiciones de admisión. Se dirigió una obra musical en dos formas: expresiva e inexpresiva. El experimento fue grabado con dos cámaras de vídeo con el fin de estudiar el papel del director y de observar al coro. Después de la interpretación, los cantantes cumplimentaron una encuesta de modo…
Mental training, relaxation techniques and pedagogical instructions to reduce Music Performance Anxiety (MPA) in flute students
2016
El miedo escénico es, con frecuencia, uno de los problemas con los que se enfrenta un intérprete musical en su profesión. En este estudio se observa de qué manera el miedo escénico afecta a los músicos, cuáles son los posibles factores que lo desencadenan y cómo podemos intervenir para paliar o reducir sus efectos. Se realiza una entrevista inicial a cuatro estudiantes de Grado Superior de flauta travesera y se procede a una intervención de varios meses de duración aplicando varias técnicas en el aprendizaje de una obra musical: relajación, entrenamiento mental e intervenciones educativas basadas en la evaluación y la secuenciación de objetivos. Después de la intervención se realiza de nuev…
“Waiting for the Bass to Drop”: Correlations Between Intense Emotional Experiences and Production Techniques in Build-up and Drop Sections of Electro…
2014
This study investigates the correlations between theories of intense emotional experiences and production techniques used in the electronic dance music (EDM) sections “build-up” and “drop”, which are designed to build tension and create a heightened emotional intensity among clubbers. This is done by descriptive and interpretive music analysis, where spectrograms and a schematic model visually represent the dominant production techniques. Through a theoretical framework consisting of musical expectancy and gravity, the analysis suggests that i) extensive use of uplifters, ii) the “drum roll effect”, iii) large frequency changes, iv) removal and reintroduction of bass and bass drum and v) a …
Pleasurable and Intersubjectively Embodied Experiences of Electronic Dance Music
2016
How do dancers engage with electronic dance music (EDM) when dancing? This paper reports on an empirical study of dancers' pleasurable engagement with three structural properties of EDM: (1) breakdown, (2) build-up, and (3) drop. Sixteen participants danced to a DJ mix in a club-like environment, and the group’s bodily activity was recorded with an infrared, marker-based motion capture system. After they danced, the subjects filled out questionnaires about the pleasure they experienced and their relative desire to move while dancing. Subsequent analyses revealed associations between the group’s quantity of motion and self-reported experiences of pleasure. Associations were also found betwee…
Theoretical Proposals on How Vertical Harmony May Convey Nostalgia and Longing in Music
2015
<p>Music is often associated with the emotions of nostalgia and longing. According to previous survey studies both nostalgia and longing are among the most commonly evoked emotions by music (Juslin, 2011). Despite nostalgia&rsquo;s significance as a musical emotion, research on the specific properties of music that might contribute to this particular emotion has been scarce. A recent empirical experiment by Lahdelma and Eerola (2014) sought to explore whether single chords could be effective at conveying musical emotions to listeners, which spanned complex emotions such as nostalgia. According to the results single chords such as the minor triad, the minor seventh and the major se…
Report on the 10th International Conference of Students of Systematic Musicology (SysMus17)
2018
The 10th annual International Conference of Students of Systematic Musicology (SysMus) took place on September 13–15, 2017, at Queen Mary University of London (UoL). The SysMus series has established itself as an international, student-run conference series aimed at introducing graduate students to networking and discussing their work in an academic conference environment. The term “Systematic Musicology,” first coined by Guido Adler (1885), nowadays covers a wide range of systematic or empirical approaches to theoretical, psychological, neuroscientific, ethnographic, and computational methodologies in music research. Presentations for SysMus17 focused on three central topics in relation t…
