Full textThis thesis discusses the use of deep generative models for symbolic music generation. We will be focused on devising interactive generative models which are able to create new creative processes through a fruitful dialogue between a human composer and a computer. Recent advances in artificial intelligence led to the development of powerful generative models able to generate musical content without the need of human intervention. I believe that this practice cannot be thriving in the future since the human experience and human appreciation are at the crux of the artistic production. However, the need of both flexible and expressive tools which could enhance content creators' creativity is patent; the development and the potential of such novel A.I.-augmented computer music tools are promising. In this manuscript, I propose novel architectures that are able to put artists back in the loop. The proposed models share the common characteristic that they are devised so that a user can control the generated musical contents in a creative way. In order to create a user-friendly interaction with these interactive deep generative models, user interfaces were developed. I believe that new compositional paradigms will emerge from the possibilities offered by these enhanced controls. This thesis ends on the presentation of genuine musical projects like concerts featuring these new creative tools

Full textThis dissertation describes the development of choir singing in France since the 1940’s. Collective vocal practices are studied here as an “art world”, as defined by Howard Becker. This work analyses the networks of interactions involved in the production of choir works. It is based on both qualitative data and statistical analysis of quantitative surveys. It mobilises both sociology of culture and economic sociology perspectives, to explain the dynamics of this art world. This dissertation focuses successively on four questions to analyse the world of choral music. Choir singing is first considered with regard of the symbolic hierarchies that structure artistic worlds. Choir music results from the fusion of highbrow and lowbrow musical repertoires. To that extent, it can be described as a “middle brow art”. The question of artistic cooperation is hen considered. The specificity of the choral world lies in the fact that its unity does not depend on a unique system of conventions, but on the definition of local equilibriums within choirs. A third part is devoted to the economy of amateur choir singing. This dissertation proposes a typology of economic forms. This theoretical frame is a tool which can be used to organize the diversity of an economy which does not relies exclusively on market forms nor on monetary exchanges. The last part of the dissertation is devoted to professionalization processes which transformed the production of choral works during the 1980’s

This report is for the beginning choral music educator or music education student who seeks guidance when selecting repertoire for their advanced elementary or beginning middle school choir. I attended the 2011 Kansas Choral Directors Association conference. Conferences such as these are great resources for the novice choral educator and even the veteran teacher. Choral reading sessions are excellent ways to find new and quality repertoire, because the directors that select the music spend a good amount of time researching and selecting songs. In determining what factors directors use to choose repertoire for their choirs, a survey was developed and administered to forty Kansas music educators at one of the reading sessions which asked the following three questions: 1) What is the likelihood that you would use this song in a concert or program? The next two are questions in which I asked (these two were based on a ‘disagree or agree’ scale): ‘This song has good educational value for the students’ and ‘I can teach many elements of music within this song.’ Evidence is shown from other master educators of various levels that choosing appropriate, worthy, and challenging repertoire is crucial to the success of the choral program.

Full textAutism is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects 1% of the world's population. The manifestations of this disorder particularly affect the social and language spheres. Several intervention methods have been developed to alleviate the challenges encountered by these individuals. Artistic methods, such as music, have also been considered. Various interventions and musical programs have been presented to autistic populations in order to observe their effects on their social development. However, among these interventions, a group singing activity was little exploited. The objective of this dissertation was to understand how an extracurricular choral activity can contribute to the development of social skills in children with autism. The methodology of the qualitative case study was favoured in order to answer this question. Three children with ASD aged 6 to 12 years were recruited. These children participated in an extracurricular choir activity at their special school. Observations were made during choir sessions in the winter of 2020. However, the global Covid-19 pandemic has forced the closure of schools. Therefore, only four observation sessions were conducted. According to the analysis of the results, the choir seems to be a context where children can satisfy their social curiosity. It is also a place where stereotypical behaviours are expressed to a lesser extent and where children can become familiar with changes in a safe context. Research avenues are also formulated at the end of this paper.

Full textThe purpose of this study was to (a) examine influences on choral music adjudicators’ rating decisions of choral performance quality and (b) to see if differences existed among those influences by participants’ years of adjudication experience and academic training (degree focus). Part One of the study included eight randomly selected participants (N = 8), comprised of choral adjudication experts, to aid in the construction of the data collection instrument. Part Two of the study included a convenience sample (N = 71) comprised of choral music performance adjudicators within the southeastern United States.
For the primary purpose, the Choral Adjudicator Preference Scale (CAPS), a researcher-constructed data-gathering instrument, was developed to determine influences on choral adjudicators’ rating decisions of choral performance. A Cronbach’s Coefficient Alpha measure of internal consistency was calculated to establish reliability of the CAPS data collection instrument. A coefficient of .934 was found for the CAPS, which indicated a high level of internal consistency. Validity for the data-gathering instrument was established through three sources, (a) an open-ended questionnaire sent to the eight choral adjudicators, (b) a thorough review of the related literature and (c) verification by choral activities chairpersons among the southeastern states. For research question one (What factors influence adjudicators’ decisions when adjudicating choirs?) a principal component analysis revealed 23 items that coalesced among four factors of influence: (a) the ensemble’s performance, (b) visual aspects, (c) extra-musical aspects, and (d) the conductor’s contributions. These four factors accounted for 61.49 percent of the total variance in participants’ responses.
For the secondary purpose, a two-way repeated measures analysis of variance was calculated to determine if differences existed among factors of influence by participants’ years of adjudication experience and academic training (degree focus). For research question two (Do differences exist among adjudicators’ influences on rating decisions by years of adjudication experience?) a significant main effect was found for the factors, F (3, 189) = 216.581, p = .000, η2 = .775; however, there was no main effect for years of adjudication experience, nor an interaction effect among the factors and years of adjudication experience. For research question three (Do differences exist among adjudicators’ influences on rating decisions by academic training?) a significant main effect was found for the factors, F (3, 201) = 195.326, p = .000, η2 = .745; however, there was no main effect for academic training, nor an interaction effect among the factors and academic training.
A discussion of the influences on choral adjudicators’ rating decisions was presented. Recommendations for future research were suggested regarding music performance adjudication, influences on rating decisions, and characteristics of evaluators.

Full textThe work consists in a study related to the field of choral direction. The study focuses on the competences and the conditions of choir directors to achieve optimum performance in the opinion of constituents of the choral world as desired by choir members and directors. Choice of repertoire, social and historical context of choral direction, and epistemological issues of the musical interpretation have been addressed.The origins of the concept of competences, their evolution and approach according to different perspectives and their educational use precede the empirical observation. The latter study consists of a wide survey in six countries, namely Austria, France, Germany, Spain, United States of America and Venezuela. The critical analysis of this study reflects the psychological image of choir director’s competences, describing the cultural position and its performance in the social context. This study triggers assumptions relating to the historical legacy of choral direction as well as a framework of considerations related to the professional qualification of choir directors

Full textAn ad hoc choir, composed of 22 university voice majors, was recorded singing 4 choral pieces under each experimental condition. Thirty-seven choral conductors, 33 voice teachers and 32 nonvocal musicians rated the performances according to 7 standard evaluative criteria, and wrote comments. Eight of the choristers were recorded individually during the performances. These choristers was also recorded singing their parts as solo songs. Twelve voice teachers evaluated the vocal production of these a choristers. They ranked the 5 performances of each piece (4 choral and solo) by each chorister, and wrote comments. All choristers rated the 4 choral experimental conditions for each piece on a 5-point scale, according to vocal comfort and choral sound, and wrote comments.
Analysis of choral performance ratings revealed a significant seating arrangement effect in favor of acoustic seating over random seating. Singing mode had a significant effect in favor of blended singing over soloistic singing on choral conductors' ratings for all seven criteria. This effect was observed in the voice teachers only "blend/homogeneity." Otherwise, no significant singing mode effect was voice teachers and nonvocal musicians.
On the basis of individual vocal production, voice teachers ranked solo singing significantly higher than the 2 choral singing modes, and soloistic choral singing higher than blended choral singing. Moreover, they ranked acoustic seating higher than random seating.
Choristers rated acoustic seating higher than random seating for vocal comfort and choral sound. They preferred blended singing to soloistic singing for choral sound. For vocal comfort, sopranos preferred soloistic singing to blended singing, tenors preferred blended singing to soloistic singing. Altos and basses showed no singing mode preference for vocal comfort.

Full textThis work concerns the educative function of caseworkers in institution. Despite the caseworkers‘ different profiles and their different frameworks (time and space related), the educative function could be described as a choral function in reference to the Greek tragedy’s choir, in its institution first quality. The tragic metaphor made it possible to think this function according to the group paradigm offered by metapsychology(psychoanalysis). Group psychoanalytical theories made it possible to examine the inter‐subjective link and the question of transfer in social work, so much for the caseworkers than the “users”. The educative function, as a choral function, function of group psyche, allowed us to think the plural educative relationship in their conformation potential, contributing to the primary task. The inter‐subjective link problematic turns out to be relevant to found a “clinic of education”
