Download or read book E Z Notation Through Rhythm Method written by Beverly Marie Nelson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music, Methods, and Me The notes of music are wonders in themselves. These little, round, circles, sometimes with stems and flags, are the symbols of the metaphysical scales of tones that surround us. We must realize the infinitude of these note symbols. Like numbers they live and work forever. They can be grasped out of thin air to be used for our imagination, creativity, and compositions. They are infinite, never to die. They have lived forever before, and will live forever after. It is a marvelous way to capture what we otherwise could not see, but only hear, and probably ignorantly or carelessly keep tuned out. Someone once said that the train whistles in England tooted in B flat. She was obviously keen on the music of the world. And what notes can be used for the many other sounds that surround us? How can the waves washing the shore, or crashing over cragged rocks be expressed with note symbols on a music score? What notes does the wind's whistle use, or its rush as it bursts through all trees? And do the leaves answer with yet another stream of melodies? Has their voices been inked on paper using the symbols, named notes? Our four methods of easy composing found in this book, can meaningfully promote the capability to do so. Nature sings to us through bird songs, thunder clashes, lightning flashes, roaring lions, barking dogs, meowing kittens, all with different tones and pitches. Do we hear them, and their music? Let's find how to catch and understand their music. In a unique way we try with the E-Z "Notation Through Rhythm" Methods of Music. And so we have included eight sets of the same puppet-doll incentive to music awareness. Familiarity with the colorful individuals who have journeyed from the Music Rainbow means familiarity with music notation in a fun, yet effective method for motivation and learning retention. Puppets are recognized teaching tools. Sesame Street proves that, and alphabet puppets have been useful. Why not have Music Puppets each with the letter names of a food, and each portraying an individual personality characteristic. We believe them to be so important we have included three sets. B.

Download or read book Applying Karnatic Rhythmical Techniques to Western Music written by Rafael Reina and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most classical musicians, whether in orchestral or ensemble situations, will have to face a piece by composers such as Ligeti, Messiaen, Varèse or Xenakis, while improvisers face music influenced by Dave Holland, Steve Coleman, Aka Moon, Weather Report, Irakere or elements from the Balkans, India, Africa or Cuba. Rafael Reina argues that today’s music demands a new approach to rhythmical training, a training that will provide musicians with the necessary tools to face, with accuracy, more varied and complex rhythmical concepts, while keeping the emotional content. Reina uses the architecture of the South Indian Karnatic rhythmical system to enhance and radically change the teaching of rhythmical solfege at a higher education level and demonstrates how this learning can influence the creation and interpretation of complex contemporary classical and jazz music. The book is designed for classical and jazz performers as well as creators, be they composers or improvisers, and is a clear and complete guide that will enable future solfege teachers and students to use these techniques and their methodology to greatly improve their rhythmical skills. An accompanying website of audio examples helps to explain each technique. For examples of composed and improvised pieces by students who have studied this book, as well as concerts by highly acclaimed karnatic musicians, please copy this link to your browser: http://www.contemporary-music-through-non-western-techniques.com/pages/1587-video-recordings

Download or read book The Evolution of Rhythm Cognition Timing in Music and Speech written by Andrea Ravignani and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-07-24 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human speech and music share a number of similarities and differences. One of the closest similarities is their temporal nature as both (i) develop over time, (ii) form sequences of temporal intervals, possibly differing in duration and acoustical marking by different spectral properties, which are perceived as a rhythm, and (iii) generate metrical expectations. Human brains are particularly efficient in perceiving, producing, and processing fine rhythmic information in music and speech. However a number of critical questions remain to be answered: Where does this human sensitivity for rhythm arise? How did rhythm cognition develop in human evolution? How did environmental rhythms affect the evolution of brain rhythms? Which rhythm-specific neural circuits are shared between speech and music, or even with other domains? Evolutionary processes’ long time scales often prevent direct observation: understanding the psychology of rhythm and its evolution requires a close-fitting integration of different perspectives. First, empirical observations of music and speech in the field are contrasted and generate testable hypotheses. Experiments exploring linguistic and musical rhythm are performed across sensory modalities, ages, and animal species to address questions about domain-specificity, development, and an evolutionary path of rhythm. Finally, experimental insights are integrated via synthetic modeling, generating testable predictions about brain oscillations underlying rhythm cognition and its evolution. Our understanding of the cognitive, neurobiological, and evolutionary bases of rhythm is rapidly increasing. However, researchers in different fields often work on parallel, potentially converging strands with little mutual awareness. This research topic builds a bridge across several disciplines, focusing on the cognitive neuroscience of rhythm as an evolutionary process. It includes contributions encompassing, although not limited to: (1) developmental and comparative studies of rhythm (e.g. critical acquisition periods, innateness); (2) evidence of rhythmic behavior in other species, both spontaneous and in controlled experiments; (3) comparisons of rhythm processing in music and speech (e.g. behavioral experiments, systems neuroscience perspectives on music-speech networks); (4) evidence on rhythm processing across modalities and domains; (5) studies on rhythm in interaction and context (social, affective, etc.); (6) mathematical and computational (e.g. connectionist, symbolic) models of “rhythmicity” as an evolved behavior.
