Download or read book Musical Creativity written by Irène Deliège and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2006-10-16 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection initiates a resolutely interdisciplinary research dynamic specifically concerning musical creativity. Creativity is one of the most challenging issues currently facing scientific psychology and its study has been relatively rare in the cognitive sciences, especially in artificial intelligence. This book will address the need for a coherent and thorough exploration. Musical Creativity: Multidisciplinary Research in Theory and Practice comprises seven sections, each viewing musical creativity from a different scientific vantage point, from the philosophy of computer modelling, through music education, interpretation, neuroscience, and music therapy, to experimental psychology. Each section contains discussions by eminent international specialists of the issues raised, and the book concludes with a postlude discussing how we can understand creativity in the work of eminent composer, Jonathan Harvey. This unique volume presents an up-to-date snapshot of the scientific study of musical creativity, in conjunction with ESCOM (the European Society for the Cognitive Sciences of Music). Describing many of the different aspects of musical creativity and their study, it will form a useful springboard for further such study in future years, and will be of interest to academics and practitioners in music, psychology, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, neuroscience and other fields concerning the study of human cognition in this most human of behaviours.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roy Harris’s thoroughgoing attack on the presuppositions underpinning the dominant traditions of Western thought about language, and his advocacy of a radically reconceived linguistics focused on the idea that the linguistic sign is contextually created and interpreted as a function of the meaningful integration of communicative behaviour, have made him one of the most controversial figures in the field today. In the essays in this volume Naomi S. Baron, Bob Borsley, Philip Carr, David Fleming, Rom Harré, Anthony Holiday, John E. Joseph, Frederick J. Newmeyer, David R. Olson, Trevor Pateman, John Sören Pettersson and John R. Taylor offer a critical examination of various aspects and implications of Harris’s views, in reponse to which Harris contributes an article that both engages with his critics and develops some of the major themes of his work.
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Early Childhood Learning and Development in Music written by Head of the Sir Zelman Cowen School of Music Margaret S Barrett and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-11-15 with total page 1073 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investigation of the role of music in early life and learning has been somewhat fragmented, with studies being undertaken within a range of fields with little apparent conversation across disciplinary boundaries, and with an emphasis on pre-schoolers' and school-aged childrens' learning and engagement. The Oxford Handbook of Early Childhood Learning and Development in Music brings together leading researchers in infant and early childhood cognition, music education, music therapy, neuroscience, cultural and developmental psychology, and music sociology to interrogate questions of how our capacity for music develops from birth, and its contributions to learning and development. Researchers in cultural psychology and sociology of musical childhoods investigate those factors that shape children's musical learning and development and the places and spaces in which children encounter and engage with music. These issues are complemented with consideration of the policy environment at local, national and global levels in relation to music early learning and development and the ways in which these shape young children's music experiences and opportunities. The volume also explores issues of music provision and developmental contributions for children with Special Education Needs, children living in medical settings and participating in music therapy, and those living in sites of trauma and conflict. Consideration of these environments provides a context to examine music learning and development in family, community and school settings including general and specialized school environments. Authors trace the trajectories of development within and across cultures and settings and in that process identify those factors that facilitate or constrain children's early music learning and development.
Download or read book Filosofia della musica written by Giovanni Piana and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-01-03 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questa "Filosofia della musica", pubblicata nel 1991, è apparsa in un contesto in cui era vivamente sentita da parte di filosofi e musicisti l'esigenza di un confronto sulle questioni che stanno alle radici del fenomeno musicale nel suo complesso. La critica che qui viene condotta contro le implicazioni filosofiche della semiologia musicale fa da sfondo ad un percorso che intende sperimentare nuove vie nella delimitazione delle nozioni elementari che rappresentano le strutture portanti dell'universo dei suoni. Il libro si conclude con una discussione che mostra come solo attraverso l'operare dell'immaginazione simbolica la musica possa mantenere la presa sulla realtà. Che questo percorso si muova spesso ai margini del musicale ha le sue ragioni all'interno del punto di vista adottato, ma anche ripete e riprende sul piano della riflessione filosofica quel ritorno alle origini che fa parte del senso profondo della straordinaria avventura della musica novecentesca.
Download or read book Teoria del sogno e dramma musicale La metafisica della musica di Schopenhauer written by Giovanni Piana and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-01-02 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La posizione di Schopenhauer sulla musica è considerata una delle espressioni teoriche più alte della concezione della musica in età romantica. E tuttavia né la teoria né i gusti musicali sembrano incontrarsi con il romanticismo. Questo libro di Giovanni Piana propone una concisa esposizione della metafisica della musica di Schopenhauer, nella quale viene accentuato il riferimento al passato musicale, ma viene anche fatto emergere quel rapporto tra musica come passione della volontà e natura come affettività diffusa, che rappresenta il punto di incontro con Wagner. Questi riesce a fornire un'interpretazione in termini musicali della straordinaria teoria del sogno presentata da Schopenhauer nel suo saggio dedicato all'"oscuro regno" dei fenomeni paranormali. Ne risulta una potente risignificazione della concezione di Schopenhauer, capace di gettare su di essa bagliori che contribuiscono a illuminare il suo senso più profondo.

Download or read book Problemi di estetica e di teoria musicale written by Giovanni Piana and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-01-19 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Per un lungo periodo, la critica musicale ha subito il dominio incontrastato di Adorno e della sua posizione sociologizzante. In questo libro è contenuto un saggio di vasto respiro, che ha suscitato non poche ostilità all'autore, contro Adorno e l'adornismo, nel quale si fornisce non una vacua polemica, ma una vasta documentazione del contesto culturale in cui il successo italiano di Adorno può essere, se non giustificato, almeno compreso. Ma questi saggi discutono anche altri nomi significativi nella filosofia della musica novecentesca, in particolare, Jankélévitch e Langer. Più pronunciatamente orientati in direzione della teoria della musica sono i saggi su Hindemith e Danielou, entrambi autori ben poco frequentati dalla critica corrente. Il volume si chiude con una sintesi che Giovanni Piana(http: //www.filosofia.unimi.it/piana/) propone del proprio itinerario nel campo della filosofia della musica.
Download or read book Music and Esotericism written by Laurence Wuidar and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-05-15 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays analyzes the relationships that exist between esotericism and music from Antiquity to the 20th century, investigating ways in which magic, astrology, alchemy, divination, and cabbala interact with music. The volume seeks to dissolve artificial barriers between the history of art, music, science, and intellectual history by establishing an interdisciplinary dialogue about music as viewed against a specific cultural background. The synthesis of scientific and historical contexts with respect to music, explored here on a large scale for the first time, opens up a wealth of new approaches to music historical research, music performance, and musical composition. Each chapter presents either a unique example of music functioning within esoteric and scientific traditions or a demonstration of the influence of those traditions upon selected musical works. L’ouvrage analyse les relations entre l’ésotérisme et la musique de l’Antiquité au 20ème siècle étudiant comment la magie, l’astrologie, l’alchimie, la divination et la cabale ont interagit avec la musique. Il vise à dépasser les frontières entre l’histoire de l’art, l’histoire de la musique et l’histoire des sciences et des idées afin de nouer un dialogue interdisciplinaire sur la musique autour de contextes historiques et scientifiques précis. L’ouvrage offre une première synthèse sur les rapports entre ésotérisme et musique ainsi que diverses pistes de recherche à poursuivre.

Download or read book Saggi di filosofia della musica written by Giovanni Piana and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-01-14 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pur constando di saggi ben differenziati, questo libro può essere considerato suddiviso in due parti: la prima riguarda tematiche di ordine generale che toccano l'idea di filosofia della musica che Giovanni Piana ha più ampiamente sviluppato altrove. In particolare la discussione verte sul modo di concepire l'arte del comporre e la distinzione di fondo tra continuità e discontinuità che tanta parte ha nel campo dell'espressione musicale. Nella seconda parte, l'autore si avventura invece spericolatamente in una riflessione che coinvolge da diversi punti di vista la musica, la magia e il mito culminando in un saggio, il primo scritto in Italia, che chiama in causa uno dei più celebri trattatisti musicali dell'antica India intrecciando nella discussione la dodecafonia schoenberghiana ed il concetto di serie dodecafonica. Rispetto alla letteratura musicologica corrente le novità sono molte, e possono interessare sia l'appassionato cultore di musica sia il musicista praticante.
