Book Synopsis Discovering the musical mind by : Jeanne Bamberger
Download or read book Discovering the musical mind written by Jeanne Bamberger and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-10-10 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following her distinguished earlier career as a concert pianist and later as a music theorist, Jeanne Bamberger conducted countless case studies analysing musical development and creativity the results of which were published in important scientific journals. Discovering musical mind draws together in one source these classic studies, offering the chance to revisit and reconsider some of her conclusions. Reviewing the data in light of current theories of cognitive development, she discusses how some of the conclusions she drew stand up to scrutiny, whilst in other cases, anomalies turn out to have greater significance than expected. The book is a collection of Bamberger's papers from 1975 to 2011. It includes her first study of Beethoven's original fingerings, her beginning work with children's invented notations, close observations and analysis of children in the Laboratory for Making Things, studies of musically gifted children, and the emergent musical development of students in elementary-secondary school and university undergraduate and graduate studies. The observations and research lead to the development of an interactive, computer-based music environment that uses her pragmatic theory of musical development as the basis for a project-oriented program for teaching and learning. Unlike other collections, the book is both interdisciplinary and strongly practical. It brings together and integrates Bamberger's background in music theory, research in music perception and music education, performance, cognitive development, artificial intelligence, and procedural music composition. Her multi-faceted approach to music theory and music pedagogy is guided throughout by her commitment to an understanding and respect for an individual's natural, creative musical intelligence. This natural competence becomes the formative ground on which to help people of all ages build an ever growing understanding and engagement with the evolving structures of the world's music. Bringing together a body of research currently scattered across a range of journals, or simply no longer available, the book will make fascinating reading for those in the fields of musical developmental and educational psychology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summary: In a cozy little town surrounded by towering mountains and lush forests, there lived a curious young kid named Alex. One day, while exploring the dusty corners of their attic, Alex stumbled upon something truly extraordinary—a magical musical instrument, hidden away beneath old boxes and cobwebs. This wasn't just any instrument; it was unique, with the amazing ability to make drawings and stories come to life just by playing its enchanting melodies. As Alex began to play this mysterious instrument, they noticed something incredible. The music didn't just fill the room with beautiful sounds; it also brought their drawings to life! Imagine drawing a bird and then, as you play a tune, watching it flutter off the paper and around your room. That's exactly what happened to Alex. Each note played on the instrument was like a key, unlocking the door to a world where imagination became reality. This magical discovery marked the beginning of a series of adventures for Alex. With the magical instrument in hand, Alex embarked on a journey unlike any other. Along the way, Alex met new friends who were just as curious and adventurous. Together, they explored the depths of their imagination, facing challenges and solving problems with the help of the instrument's magical melodies. These adventures were more than just exciting escapades; they were also filled with valuable lessons. Alex and their friends learned about the importance of friendship, courage, and creativity. They discovered that, sometimes, the answer to a problem lies in looking at it from a different perspective or trying out a creative solution. But the most important lesson of all was about the magic within. Through the journey, Alex realized that the true magic didn't just come from the instrument. Instead, it was inside them all along. It was the magic of believing in oneself, the power of imagination, and the strength that comes from the heart. This story of Alex and the magical musical instrument teaches us that within each of us lies the potential to create wonder, to face challenges with courage, and to discover the magic that resides within our own hearts. It's a reminder that, sometimes, the greatest adventures and the most powerful magic are found not in the world around us, but within ourselves. Chapter 1: Little Alex was from Harmony, a great, quiet neighborhood, and he was always excited to try new things. Alex found something interesting one day while playing in their attic, which is full of old things and lost treasures. A dirty old musical instrument was hidden behind some old boxes. There is something about this instrument. It looked like the threads caught the last of the sun's rays and sparkled and shone in the dim attic light. It was so clear and different that Alex couldn't help but be drawn to it, like it was calling them. Alex was shocked and concentrated hard on his guitar. It looked strange and almost magical when they touched it. Alex started to play the strings because he couldn't play the instrument. When the first note was played, a spectacular event began. There seemed to be life in the space around them as the song spread color and light all over. No one in Harmony had ever heard that music before. It was the first time Alex had heard sounds that sparkled and moved. It was so beautiful, it sounded like angels singing. The pure and sweet music from the heart shocked and calmed everyone. Alex knew this wasn't a normal garage gift as the music went on. You're drawn in by this instrument's beautiful sound. Alex thought that the beauty of the music went beyond the everyday and took him to a world of fun and adventure he had never been to before. The instrument looked like it was full of harmony and was hiding secrets and riddles that were just waiting to be found. It reflected the peace and beauty of the town. Because of this, Alex's life changed in a way that was full of magic, excitement, and the power of music. We learned that the most amazing things can happen in places we least expect them to. Alex saw the old, dusty instrument in the attic as the key to a world where magic and truth lived together, and dreams come true. Alex knew right then that the great instrument they had just bought would change their lives forever. It offered adventures that were as beautiful and endless as the music it played. Chapter 2: When Alex found the magical instrument in the attic, he became even more interested. They were amazed by how well the instrument could play and all the cool things it could do. To deal with this important issue, Alex decided to do a simple test. With a pencil, they drew a simple butterfly form on some paper. The butterfly on the paper looked calm, and its wings were spread out like it was looking forward to something great. When Alex picked up the guitar again, he was both excited and nervous. What would happen if they played a tune? Will the picture stay just a sketch, or will something interesting happen?

Book Synopsis The Art and Practice of Musical Theatre Choreography by : Cassie Abate
Download or read book The Art and Practice of Musical Theatre Choreography written by Cassie Abate and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-07-28 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does a musical theatre choreographer actually do? They just 'make up the steps', right? This book firstly debunks the misunderstandings around what musical theatre choreographers actually do, demonstrating their need to have an in-depth understanding of storytelling, music theory, performance practices and plot structure in order to create movement that enhances and enlivens the musical. Secondly, it equips the musical theatre choreographer with all the tools needed to create nuanced, informed and inspired movement for productions, through structured activities that build specific skills (such as 'notating the script' and 'scoring the score'). Traditionally, this training has been something of a series of secrets, passed from mentor to apprentice. The author demystifies the process to make the previously undisclosed “tricks of the trade” accessible to all choreographers, everywhere. Covering the entire process of choreographing a musical from the first script reading to the final curtain call, this book makes case for the absolute integrity of the choreographer to any musical theatre production and sets out the theoretical principles of choreography alongside the practical application during every step of the production process.
