  • TVS.005628_TT_Lois Svard - The Musical Brain_ What Students, Teachers, and Performers Need to Know-Oxford University Press (2023).pdf.jpg
  • Sách/Book


  • Authors: Svard, Lois (2023)

  • For centuries, poets and philosophers have written about the power of music, often suggesting that music is the essence of life itself, that music lives within us, that we are music. Scientists have dismissed these writings as flights of poetic fancy, or perhaps metaphor or artistic license. They have considered music to be a product of culture, and that's the way musicians have studied music as well. But have poets and philosophers perhaps had a better sense of the true nature of music? Have they been right all along in suggesting that music is life itself?

  • TVS.005629_TT_John Rink - The Practice of Performance_ Studies in Musical Interpretation (2005).pdf.jpg
  • Sách/Book


  • Authors: - (1995)

  • The 12 essays in this volume represent the most important trends in the study of musical performance. Three areas are investigated: the psychology of performance, the semantics of performance, and the relation between performance and analysis. The first section broaches fundamental issues such as text, expression, musical motion and the role of practice in the acquisition of expertise. The next four chapters address the shaping of structure and the projection of meaning in performance, while the last four consider performance as analytical paradigm, as dramatic narrative, as act of criticism, as temporal process.
