Music, Analysis, Experience
Transdisciplinary and intermedial analysis of the experience of music Nowadays musical semiotics no longer ignores the fundamental challenges raised by cognitive sciences, ethology, or linguistics. Creation, action and experience play an increasing role in how we understand music, a sounding structure impinging upon our body, our mind, and the world we live in. Not discarding music as a closed system, an integral experience of music demands a transdisciplinary dialogue with other domains as well. Music, Analysis, Experience brings together contributions by semioticians, performers, and scholars from cognitive sciences, philosophy, and cultural studies, and deals with these fundamental questi...
Art as experience of the living body / L’art comme experience du corps vivant
This book analyses the dynamic relationship between art and subjective consciousness, following a phenomenological, pragmatist and enactive approach. It brings out a new approach to the role of the body in art, not as a speculative object or symbolic material but as the living source of the imaginary. It contains theoretical contributions and case studies taken from various artistic practices (visual art, theatre, literature and music), Western and Eastern, the latter concerning China, India and Japan. These contributions allow us to nourish the debate on embodied cognition and aesthetics, using theory–philosophy, art history, neuroscience–and the authors’ personal experience as artist...
Highlights in Performance Science: Music Performance Anxiety
VIEW BOOK DETAILS We are pleased to introduce the collection Frontiers in Psychology – Highlights in Performance Science: Music Performance Anxiety. Music performance anxiety (MPA) has been defined as “the experience of marked and persistent anxious apprehension related to musical performance”. For musicians performing in public is a demanding activity and the MPA can cause potential debilitating effects on their career and health, regardless of age, gender, experience, practicing time, and music genre. A greater understanding of the predicting factors of MPA has implications not only for theories of MPA but also for its prevention and management and more broadly for teaching and learning. This collection will welcome and showcase a selection of articles about Music Performance Anxiety (MPA), authored by leaders in the field. The work presented here highlights the broad diversity of research performed across the Performance Science field and aims to put a spotlight on the main areas of interest. This collection aims to further support Frontiers’ strong community by shining a spotlight on our authors' highly impactful research.
Variants and Variance in Classical Textual Cultures
Given the limited durability of most textual supports, texts must be reproduced if they are to survive. And given the proliferation over time of users, practices, and places which need to have access to the texts that are important for cultural institutions, this is particularly true for authoritative texts. But the reproduction of texts by traditional means – either orally or by hand – inevitably produces variations. These variations can arise because of inattention, confusion, misunderstanding, deliberate modification, physical damage, and many other factors. In general, the more a text is reproduced, the more variations are likely to occur. But although the fact of textual variation i...
O alcance da teoria de Heinrich Schenker no Brasil
O objetivo desta obra é demonstrar o alcance do pensamento de Heinrich Schenker no Brasil. O levantamento realizado obedece a três eixos básicos: 1. O trabalho do professor Georg Wassermann, aluno de Schenker, no Rio de Janeiro, entre os anos de 1941 e 1968; 2. Jamary Oliveira e Cristina Gerling, o início da introdução da teoria de Schenker nas Universidades Públicas do Brasil; e 3. O ensino da teoria de Schenker nas Universidades Públicas do Brasil e os livros publicados por autores brasileiros sobre a análise schenkeriana. As metodologias envolvidas na pesquisa incluíram verificação em documentos de época, bibliotecas de teses e dissertações, repositórios digitais de univer...
Claude Debussy
En cette année du 100e anniversaire de la mort de Claude Debussy, ce livre accompagné de deux CD a l'ambition d'une exploration dans l'univers debussyste sous des angles pluriels, inédits, originaux ou inattendus parfois, sans exclure quelques échappées d'humour faunesque... faites par une pléiade de grands debussystes, chercheurs, professeurs, compositeurs, interprètes. Refusant comme le préconisait Debussy de « démonter les oeuvres comme de curieuses montres », ils ont choisi d'investiguer les traces que la musique de Debussy a laissées chez quelques compositeurs contemporains majeurs.
Éclairages
Ce livre présente de manière détaillée chacune des partitions composées par Nicolas Bacri : au fil des oeuvres, le compositeur se prête à une véritable introspection et révèle la construction de sa pensée musicale; les entretiens menés par la pianiste Sabine Weyer complètent cette réfl exion d'envergure sur son travail créatif. Ces « éclairages » serviront de référence à tous les interprètes et exégètes souhaitant se rapprocher des origines techniques, esthétiques et philosophiques de la musique de Nicolas Bacri.
Extrême-Orient et Occident
Les relations culturelles entre l'Occident et l'Extrême-Orient intéressent depuis longtemps les intellectuels, qui ont cherché parfois à renouveler leurs langages et leurs pensées au contact de civilisations différentes. Voici quelques aspects de la relation complexe entre la musique et la culture occidentales et extrême-orientales. Une première partie retrace les relations franco-asiatiques dans le domaine culturel, une deuxième traite de l'inspiration extrême-orientale dans la musique occidentale et une troisième montre la permanence de cette influence et des échanges réciproques entre les deux cultures aux XXe et XXIe siècles au travers d'œuvres de compositeurs chinois.
Mallarmé et la Chine
Mallarmé s'est donné pour modèle d'artiste idéal le peintre chinois, qui incarne tout son projet esthétique. Pour lui, tous les arts visent le nec plus ultra de la figuration esthétique : "une ligne fine, comme tracée à l'encre de Chine". La prééminence du blanc, du vide et du silence est au coeur de la méditation esthétique du poète et trouve ses échos dans la culture chinoise, faisant de Mallarmé un précurseur en Europe de l'idée que l'art offre une vision d'autant plus riche et parlante à l'imagination qu'elle est raréfiée, simplifiée.
