Download or read book Machine Musicianship written by Robert Rowe and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2004-01-30 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Musicians begin formal training by acquiring a body of musical concepts commonly known as musicianship. These concepts underlie the musical skills of listening, performance, and composition. Like humans, computer music programs can benefit from a systematic foundation of musical knowledge. This book explores the technology of implementing musical processes such as segmentation, pattern processing, and interactive improvisation in computer programs. It shows how the resulting applications can be used to accomplish tasks ranging from the solution of simple musical problems to the live performance of interactive compositions and the design of musically responsive installations and Web sites. Machine Musicianship is both a programming tutorial and an exploration of the foundational concepts of musical analysis, performance, and composition. The theoretical foundations are derived from the fields of music theory, computer music, music cognition, and artificial intelligence. The book will be of interest to practitioners of those fields, as well as to performers and composers.The concepts are programmed using C++ and Max. The accompanying CD-ROM includes working versions of the examples, as well as source code and a hypertext document showing how the code leads to the program's musical functionality.

Book Teaching Healthy Musicianship

Download or read book Teaching Healthy Musicianship written by Nancy Taylor and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by a professional musician who is also a certified occupational therapist, Teaching Healthy Musicianship first and foremost help music educators avoid common injuries that they themselves encounter, and in the process it also equips them with the tools they need to instill healthy musicianship practices in their students. Author Nancy Taylor combines her two unique skill sets to provide a model for injury prevention that is equally cognizant of the needs of music educators and their students. Through practical explanation of body mechanics, ergonomics, and the performance-related health problems and risk factors unique to musicianship, she gives music educators the tools they need to first practice healthy posture, body mechanics, environmental safety, and ergonomics, and then to introduce these same practices to their students. Thoroughly illustrated with 125 photographs, this book is a key resource for preservice and inservice teachers of middle school and high school band, orchestra, choir and general music.

Book Developing Musicianship With Listening Excerpts

Download or read book Developing Musicianship With Listening Excerpts written by Jim Childers and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-04-19 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents information about how to be organized and efficient in using a small but effective amount of listening to develop students' musical concepts. Words, and their connotative meanings often fall short and fail to produce what a director hopes to hear. Having great bands playing those desired elements from within great pieces of music can and will improve your students. I feel listening has been a great benefit to my students. I have spent a lot of time attempting to be more efficient in how I present listening excerpts. The main section of this book contains many tables that list the time stamps of excerpts from numerous recordings. Incorporate listening excerpts into your teaching. You and your students will benefit greatly.

Book Robotic Musicianship

Download or read book Robotic Musicianship written by Gil Weinberg and published by Springer. This book was released on 2020-02-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the principles, methodologies, and challenges of robotic musicianship through an in-depth review of the work conducted at the Georgia Tech Center for Music Technology (GTCMT), where the concept was first developed. Robotic musicianship is a relatively new research field that focuses on the design and development of intelligent music-making machines. The motivation behind the field is to develop robots that not only generate music, but also collaborate with humans by listening and responding in an expressive and creative manner. This combination of human and machine creativity has the potential to surprise and inspire us to play, listen, compose, and think about music in new ways. The book provides an in-depth view of the robotic platforms designed at the GTCMT Robotic Musicianship Group, including the improvisational robotic percussionists Haile and Shimon, the personal robotic companion Shimi, and a number of wearable robots, such as the Robotic Drumming Prosthesis, The Third Drumming Arm, and the Skywalker Piano Hand. The book discusses numerous research studies based on these platforms in the context of five main principles: Listen like a Human, Play Like a Machine, Be Social, Watch and Learn, and Wear It.
