Download or read book Musical Instruments in the 21st Century written by Till Bovermann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-09 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By exploring the many different types and forms of contemporary musical instruments, this book contributes to a better understanding of the conditions of instrumentality in the 21st century. Providing insights from science, humanities and the arts, authors from a wide range of disciplines discuss the following questions: · What are the conditions under which an object is recognized as a musical instrument? · What are the actions and procedures typically associated with musical instruments? · What kind of (mental and physical) knowledge do we access in order to recognize or use something as a musical instrument? · How is this knowledge being shaped by cultural conventions and temporal conditions? · How do algorithmic processes 'change the game' of musical performance, and as a result, how do they affect notions of instrumentality? · How do we address the question of instrumental identity within an instrument's design process? · What properties can be used to differentiate successful and unsuccessful instruments? Do these properties also contribute to the instrumentality of an object in general? What does success mean within an artistic, commercial, technological, or scientific context?

Book Synopsis Higher Education in Music in the Twenty-First Century by : Björn Heile
Download or read book Higher Education in Music in the Twenty-First Century written by Björn Heile and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the contributors reconsider the fundamentals of Music as a university discipline by engaging with the questions: What should university study of music consist of? Are there any aspects, repertoires, pieces, composers and musicians that we want all students to know about? Are there any skills that we expect them to be able to master? How can we guarantee the relevance, rigour and cohesiveness of our curriculum? What is specific to higher education in music and what does it mean now and for the future? The book addresses many of the challenges students and teachers face in current higher education; indeed, the majority of today’s music students undoubtedly encounter a greater diversity of musical traditions and critical approaches to their study as well as a wider set of skills than their forebears. Welcome as these developments may be, they pose some risks too: more material cannot be added to the curriculum without either sacrificing depth for breadth or making much of it optional. The former provides students with a superficial and deceptive familiarity with a wide range of subject matter, but without the analytical skills and intellectual discipline required to truly master any of it. The latter easily results in a fragmentation of knowledge and skills, without a realistic opportunity for students to draw meaningful connections and arrive at a synthesis. The authors, Music academics from the University of Glasgow, provide case studies from their own extensive experience, which are complemented by an Afterword from Nicholas Cook, 1684 Professor of Music at the University of Cambridge. Together, they examine what students can and should learn about and from music and what skills and knowledge music graduates could or should possess in order to operate successfully in professional and public life. Coupled with these considerations are reflections on music’s social function and universities’ role in public life, concluding with the conviction that a university education in music is more than a personal investment in one’s future; it contributes to the public good.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technological innovations, evolving demographics in the school-age population, and students' omnipresent access to music and music making all suggest that contemporary teaching and learning occurs in environments that are much more complex than those of the nineteenth century that served as music education's primary model.

Book Synopsis 21st Century Innovation in Music Education by : Kun Setyaning Astuti
Download or read book 21st Century Innovation in Music Education written by Kun Setyaning Astuti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music is an expression of feelings of the soul conveyed through the medium of sound. But not all sounds are music. It might be said that only an organised sound or series of sounds can be called music. Thus, music is connected to the eternal and constant flow and order of the universe, to the laws and rhythms of nature. It can also be said that musical order is comparable to the natural order of the universe. There are laws of a certain nature in the natural sciences and likewise in music there are structures and procedures, or even rules, that should be followed to produce beautiful music. The International Conference "Innovations for 21st Century Music Education and Research" provided a timely opportunity to take stock of the latest developments in music education and brought together educators, researchers and members of the broader community in a welcoming forum in which they were able to express theoretical and practical views, concepts, research results and principles to help support the further development of music education.

Book Synopsis Live Looping in Musical Performance by : Alexsander Duarte
Download or read book Live Looping in Musical Performance written by Alexsander Duarte and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-08-23 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Live Looping in Musical Performance offers a diverse range of interdisciplinary perspectives on the application of live looping technology by lusophone performers and composers. This book explores various aspects, including the aesthetic component, instrumentation, and setup, highlighting the versatility of this technology in music-making. Written by musicians and researchers from Portuguese-speaking countries, this book comprises eleven chapters that delve into various musical contexts, genres, and practices. The novelty of including collaborative texts written alongside non-professional researchers offers the possibility of drawing from real experience to consider how live looping has been changing and "cyborguising" the concept of music, the ritual of the performance, the identity of the musicians, and the public's expectations. Live Looping in Musical Performance provides cutting-edge reading for composers and performers, as well as ethnomusicologists, students, and researchers working in the areas of music production, technology, and performance. This book addresses a broader audience, both academic and non-academic, who are interested in new processes of musical creativity in a post-human world.
Book Synopsis Worship Music in the 21st Century by : Marius E. Marton
Download or read book Worship Music in the 21st Century written by Marius E. Marton and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-09-09 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was born out of necessity and desire of the author to learn about proper church music in regards to melody, harmony, lyrics, instrumentation, and rhythm. The necessity is for clearer guidelines for pastors and musicians since there are many debates and divisions over worship music. The author desired a deeper understanding since he is a professional musician who was criticized for his choice of instruments, style, and genre. This book informs the reader of the musicological and theological aspect of worship music. It examines and explains the role of electric instruments and drums in 21st century worship. It helps music leaders make better decisions when it comes to building a church band and selecting proper music. This book also helps answering some myths people have about instrumentation, style, rhythm, lyrics and harmony in respect to theology, culture, and musicology vs. personal preference. This book will encourage today's musicians to explore, invent, develop, and enrich worship with their music. It will also help mend the gap between generations in regards to change, as good Christians will realize that drums were not invented by the devil and, if rightly used, could be a wonderful addition to the church band.
Download or read book iPractice written by Jennifer Mishra and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides new practical tools that bridge the gap between familiar, easy-to-use technology and musical practice to enhance musicianship and motivate students. Authors Jennifer Mishra and Barbara Fast provide ideas for use with students of all levels, from beginners to musicians performing advanced repertoire. This book is written for teachers (both studio teachers and ensemble directors), but can be read by performers to help give new guidance to their own practice sessions. Some strategies in this book would not have been possible without advances in technology; others expand tried-and-true practice strategies with the use of technology. Most of the technologies discussed are free or inexpensive and don't require extensive specialist equipment or learning. Rather than replacing quality practice strategies, technology brings new tools to the practicing tool box. The strategies lay the foundation for how technology can be used in the practice room and are intended to spark creativity. The book encourages teachers and students to vary the integration of practice strategies with technology in personal ways to fit their own studios or practice routines. This book is all about exploring our musical practice through technology. The ideas in this book will invigorate your musical practice and lead to even more creativity between you and your students
