Previous issue date: 2008<br>Resumo: Esse trabalho é resultado de uma pesquisa sobre a obra musical do músico e compositor Tião Carreiro (José Dias Nunes, 1934-1993). O enfoque principal foi identificar os elementos constitutivos e as características do estilo desse artista como instrumentista de viola, instrumento reconhecido como o símbolo da chamada música caipira. Para tanto, foram analisados musicalmente os dois LPs instrumentais do violeiro gravados em 1976 e 1979. Além disso, foram abordados os aspetos históricos da viola caipira, do segmento instrumental sertanejo e da trajetória do artista no mercado fonográfico. A partir das análises musicais, foi identificado um conjunto de elementos e técnicas utilizados pelo músico para construir seus toques e solos. A pesquisa também relacionou e caracterizou musicalmente as matrizes e gêneros, caipiras ou não, utilizados pelo violeiro na gravação desses dois discos. Entre eles, destaca-se o pagode de viola, gênero criado no final dos anos cinqüenta a partir da combinação de algumas matrizes musicais e que, por ter se tornado a marca principal do violeiro, foi objeto de uma investigação mais aprofundada.<br>Abstract: This work is the result of a research on the musical work of the musician and composer Tião Carreiro (José Dias Nunes, 1934-1993). The main focus was to identify the constituent elements and the characteristics of the style of this artist as a viola (Brazilian ten-string guitar) instrumentalist, considering the viola a recognized instrument as the symbol of what is so called música caipira (typical rural music of the central-southern region of Brazil). For that, the two first instrumental LPS of the artist, recorded in 1976 and 1979, were musically analysed. Besides that, historical aspects of viola caipira, also from the instrumental sertanejo segment and the trajectory of the artist in the phonographic market were approached. From these musical analyses a group of elements and techniques used by the musician to build his touches and solos was identified. The research also related and musically characterized the origins and genders, caipira or not, used by the violeiro in the recordings of these two records. Among them, there is one in particular, the pagode de viola, gender created at the end of the fifties's, from the combination of some musical origins and that, for having become the main mark of the violeiro, was the subject of a deepened investigation.<br>Mestrado<br>Mestre em Música

Full textAbstract:
The seventeenth century in England produced a large and historically significant body of music for the viola da gamba played "lyra-way." Broadly defined, playing "lyra-way" on the viol meant playing from tablature notation in a polyphonic style. Most players of plucked strings such as lute and guitar are familiar with tablature and, as a result, have a decisive advantage when attempting to explore this music. Other factors that make lyra viol repertory potentially attractive to the modern guitarist are its chordal textures, similarities in physical properties of the instruments, and many points of connection regarding the principles of left hand technique. The purpose of this study is two-fold: 1) to illuminate the historical and cultural context of the seventeenth-century English lyra viol music in general and that of Tobias Hume (c. 1579-1645) in particular; and 2) to present an idiomatic transcription for the modern guitar of four representative pieces from Hume's 1605 collection Musicall Humours. Musicall Humours, published in London in 1605, is one of the first and most significant collections of music for the lyra viol. The collection is both ambitious and groundbreaking, being the largest repertory of solo music for the lyra viol by a single composer in the early seventeenth century. Since the modern guitar, although not as contrapuntally facile as the keyboard, is nevertheless capable of executing two- or three-voice polyphony, reconstruction of the polyphonic implications of solo lyra viol music becomes the first step in creating an idiomatic arrangement. The differences in acoustical properties and technical capabilities between the viol and the modern guitar have to be taken into consideration when deciding on the degree to which harmony must be filled in. Generally, thinner textures of the lyra viol music, when transferred directly to the guitar, tend to sound incomplete. The arranger's musical sensitivity and intimate familiarity with both instruments must guide the final stages of the transcription process.

Previous issue date: 2013<br>Resumo: Atualmente, um importante aspecto da pesquisa em acústica musical consiste em relacionar propriedades físicas mensuráveis de um instrumento musical e a avaliação subjetiva de sua qualidade sonora ou tonal. Tem sido necessário, portanto, o desenvolvimento de métodos analíticos e numéricos para previsão do comportamento vibroacústico do instrumento, possibilitando a determinação de parâmetros objetivos que possam ser usados para controlar a sua qualidade tonal. Dessa forma, o presente trabalho realiza análises modais acústica, estrutural e vibroacústica (acoplamento entre fluido e estrutura), calculadas pelo método de elementos finitos (MEF), com o objetivo de determinar o comportamento dinâmico da caixa de ressonância da viola em termos de frequências naturais e as correspondentes formas dos modos. Primeiramente, é apresentado um modelo simplificado, que despreza as estruturas internas de reforço, mas adota as dimensões principais de uma viola real. Depois o mesmo modelo foi expandido, sendo acrescentados os reforços internos, porém com dimensões ainda aproximadas. Por fim, o terceiro modelo foi elaborado em relação às dimensões de uma viola real e seus respectivos reforços internos. Com isso, também foram realizados procedimentos experimentais a fim de verificar as capacidades e limitações do método computacional empregado. Finalmente, os resultados obtidos pelos métodos numéricos e experimentais são comparados e discutidos<br>Abstract: An important aspect of musical acoustics research is to identify the relationship of measurable physical properties of a musical instrument with the subjective evaluation of their sound quality or tone. Therefore, for musical instruments including resonance box, it is important to develop analytical or numerical methods to predict accurately its vibroacoustic behavior. These methods will enable the determination of key parameters that can be used to control the tone and sound quality. This work uses theoretical modal analysis with finite element method (FEM) to determine the dynamic behavior of a Brazilian guitar resonance box in terms of natural frequency and mode shapes. At first, is presented a simplified model that neglects the internal structures of reinforcement (struts, ribs, brackets, etc.), but adopts the main dimensions of a real Brazilian guitar. Then the same model was expanded with the addition of the internal reinforcements, but with approximate dimensions yet. Finally, the third model was designed regarding the dimensions of a real Brazilian guitar and their internal reinforcements. Experimental procedures were also performed to verify the capabilities and limitations of the computational method employed. The results obtained by numerical and experimental methods are compared and discussed<br>Mestrado<br>Mecanica dos Sólidos e Projeto Mecanico<br>Mestre em Engenharia Mecânica

Previous issue date: 2011<br>Resumo: Em meados da década de 1970, o compositor e instrumentista mineiro Renato Andrade lança seu primeiro disco solo intitulado A fantástica viola de Renato Andrade. No repertório, composições instrumentais interpretadas com muito virtuosismo na viola caipira. Esse é o início de uma produção precursora dentro da música sertaneja e que acabou por criar um novo segmento desse gênero. Resultado das transformações formais e estéticas da música popular brasileira a partir dos anos 70, a obra de Renato Andrade reflete o surgimento de fronteiras tênues entre a esfera popular e erudita, na qual compositores e instrumentistas vão buscar nas "tradições" populares elementos destinados a dar "autenticidade" e "legitimidade" às suas produções, ao mesmo tempo adotam procedimentos da música erudita para dar corpo e organicidade a suas músicas. Esta dissertação buscou investigar a obra do compositor e violeiro Renato Andrade. Para isso, partiu dos dados biográficos do artista, do levantamento de sua produção fonográfica e a partir desses dados procurou compreender as estratégias criativas de Renato Andrade, a maneira com qual o músico organiza o material musical na viola caipira e a consolidação daquilo que identificamos como sendo o seu idioma composicional. Num segundo momento, o foco deste trabalho foi compreender o performer Renato Andrade, sua atuação nos palcos e a construção do que identificamos como o personagem Renato Andrade<br>Abstract: In the 1970's, the composer and performer from Minas Gerais Renato Andrade releases his first record playing solo. It was called A fantástica viola de Renato Andrade. The album was made of instrumental compositions for viola caipira (Brazilian Ten String Guitar), an instrument that he played with a great virtuosity. This was the beginning of a one of a kind production in Brazil that ended up creating a new segment in the field of a genre known as "Música Caipira". As a result of the Brazilian's Popular Music formal and aesthetic transformations, ever since the seventies, Renato Andrade's work reflects the emergence of fine lines between the popular and the classical. In order to compose their plays, composers and musicians searched for Brazilian popular traditions so they could give to them "authenticity" and "legitimacy". At the same time, they adopt classic procedures to make the plays coherent and dense. This dissertation has the intent to explore Renato Andrade's work. It aims to expose the musical elements used in his compositions and his musical influences and tendencies and also, the construction of a specific style of the author, either through his music or through his ten string Brazilian guitar execution. To do that, we researched his biography and his music production in order to understand his creative procedures, his way to organize the musical materials in the Ten String Guitar and, finally, the consolidation of what we call his compositional language. On a second moment, we describe Renato Andrade as a performer: his performance on stage, and the construction of the "character" Renato Andrade<br>Mestrado<br>Fundamentos Teoricos<br>Mestre em Música

Previous issue date: 2016-12-02<br>Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES<br>This work is related to improvisation in the brazilian ten strings guitar with open tuning
(Cebolão), using as a case study and application the rhythm (cateretê) in music Vide
Vida Marvada, by Rolando Boldrin. Because I have not yet found specific material for
improvisation in this instrument, I have raised questions about the existence and form of
this practice. My hypothesis is that, with a method suitable to the instrument and its
particularities, which includes the study of scales and arpeggios, the student shortens the
way in the realization of different pieces, facilitates the immediate transposition of
songs to other tones and fosters basic knowledge to improvise . The objective of this
work is to investigate the processes of improvisation for viola, starting from scales,
arpeggios and rhythmic / melodic models. The methodology used was to listen and to
transcribe elements of the common practice of diverse violeiros and to extract the basic
technique for its construction. I started with authors who deal with improvisation in a
general way (BENSON, 2003), idiomatics (ALVIN and ASSIS, 2000), and authors
dealing specifically with the instrument and the like (VILELA, 2013) . The results were
the confirmation of the hypothesis raised and the construction of didactic material for
brazilian ten strings guitar with cebolão tuning, besides the evidence that improvisation
in the traditional context not only exists, but also in a particular way, more associated
with prosody Rhythm, and that the choice of tonality, within the described tuning
influences directly in its practice.<br>Esse trabalho diz respeito a improvisação na viola caipira com afinação cebolão,
utilizando como estudo de caso e aplicação o cateretê Vide Vida Marvada, de Rolando
Boldrin. Por não ter encontrado até a presente data, material específico para improvisação na
viola, levantei questões sobre a existência e a forma dessa prática. Minha hipótese é de que,
com um método adequado ao instrumento e suas particularidades, que abarque o estudo de
escalas e arpejos, o estudante encurta caminho na realização de peças diversas, facilita a
transposição imediata de músicas para outros tons e fomenta conhecimento básico para
improvisar. O objetivo deste trabalho é investigação dos processos de improvisação para
viola, partindo de escalas, arpejos e modelos rítmico/melódicos. A metodologia utilizada foi
de ouvir e transcrever elementos da prática comum de violeiros diversos e extrair a técnica
básica para a sua construção. Embasei-me em autores que dizem respeito a improvisação de
uma maneira geral (BENSON, 2003), idiomatismo (ALVIN e ASSIS, 2000), e autores que
tratam especificamente do instrumento viola e afins (VILELA, 2013), (CORRÊA, 2000). Os
resultados foram a confirmação da hipótese levantada e a construção de material didático
para viola com afinação cebolão, além da evidenciação de que a improvisação no contexto
violeiro tradicional não só existe, como é recorrente, entretanto de uma maneira particular,
mais associada a prosódia ao ritmo, e que a escolha da tonalidade, dentro da afinação
descrita influencia diretamente na sua prática.

As pesquisas históricas sobre as violas brasileiras foram delimitadas pelas referências textuais e iconográficas ao instrumento musical e à sua utilização na produção musical, particularmente da segunda metade do século XVIII ao início do XIX, com pequena citação de César das Neves em s eu Cancioneiro de Músicas Populares, cujo primeiro volume é datado de 1893. Usualmente confundida com alaúdes, cistros e violões, a literatura histórica deixa lacunas sobre a descrição do instrumento. Fato é que, não raro, os violeiros brasileiros de hoje ignoram se tratar de uma guitarra barroca. A primeira parte desta pesquisa investiga, através de fontes primárias e secundárias, a utilização da viola no Brasil desde os tempos de Anchieta, consagrando-se como o instrumento de cordas dedilhadas mais antigo ainda em uso na produção cultural do país, bem como sua classificação como instrumento da família das guitarras; trata da construção simbólica de uma viola rural, com forte ênfase no preconceito àqueles que a tocam e da sua ascensão e declínio a partir das investidas de Cornélio Pires na indústria fonográfica. Analisada através dos códigos da escrita em Tablaturas e Alfabeto Musical, a Musicologia Histórica é utilizada como ferramenta para pesquisar a linguagem elitista do instrumento à época colonial e, ao mesmo tempo, popular no Reino de Portugal, visto que não há qualquer documentação musical brasileira que legitime sua utilização no Brasil daquele período. Com base nas publicações portuguesas da produção musical brasileira, é possível reconstituir modinhas e lundus nesse instrumento, como relatado por inúmeros viajantes, a partir de um mapeamento dos recursos idiomáticos utilizados na Europa Ocidental e, particularmente, em Portugal, expondo a riqueza de linguagem, enquanto instrumento das elites, e seu empobrecimento, a partir do vínculo com o universo rural, que marcou até mesmo sua denominação mais popular utilizada atualmente na mídia em geral viola caipira ou sertaneja.<br>The historical researches on the Brazilian violas were limited by textual and iconographical references to the musical instrument and its musical production, particularly from the second half of the 17th century to the beginnings of the 18th, except from a small reference found in Cancioneiro de Músicas Populares by Cesar das Neves, published first in 1893. Usually confused with lutes, citterns e classical guitars, the historical Brazilian literature shows gaps on the description of the musical instrument. In fact, the violeiros (Brazilian baroque guitarists) often do not acknowledge the instrument as abaroque guitar. The first part of the present work seeks the musical production on the viola in Brazil since Pe. Anchieta arrival, through primary and secondary sources, being considered the earliest plucked string instrument brought to Brazil which remains in use until now, as well as its classification in the plucked stringed instrument families; also, treats its history from the symbolic view of a peasants instrument, emphasizing the prejudice to its performers, as well as its ascension and decline after Cornelio Pires investment son the record industry. The Historical Musicology analyzed from the specific notation in Tablatures and Alfabeto Musical, is here used as a tool to investigate the language from the artistic music written for this kind of guitar during the Portuguese colonization, and in the same time, its popular production in Portugal, since there is no musical manuscripts from Brazil to demonstrate its use here in that period. Based on Portuguese editions of Brazilian music, its possible to recreate modinhas and lundus on the violas, as told by several travelers who described details of our culture, showing the richness of the artistic language, when used as a musical instrument of the dominant classes, and its decline to a poor language, while getting the vinculum to the peasant working classes, marking its most popular denomination on the general medias - viola caipira or sertaneja.

Full textAbstract:
A constantly growing corpus of interdisciplinary studies support the idea that music is a complex multimodal medium that is experienced not only by means of sounds but also through body movement. From this perspective, musical instruments can be seen as technological objects coupled with a repertoire of performance gestures. This repertoire is part of an ecological knowledge shared by musicians and listeners alike. It is part of the engine that guides musical experience and has a considerable expressive potential. This thesis explores technical and conceptual issues related to the analysis and creative use of music-related body movements in instrumental music performance. The complexity of this subject required an interdisciplinary approach, which includes the review of multiple theoretical accounts, quantitative and qualitative analysis of data collected in motion capture laboratories, the development and implementation of technologies for the interpretation and interactive use of motion data, and the creation of short musical pieces that actively employ the movement of the performers as an expressive musical feature. The theoretical framework is informed by embodied and enactive accounts of music cognition as well as by systematic studies of music-related movement and expressive music performance. The assumption that the movements of a musician are part of a shared knowledge is empirically explored through an experiment aimed at analysing the motion capture data of a violinist performing a selection of short musical excerpts. A group of subjects with no prior experience playing the violin is then asked to mime a performance following the audio excerpts recorded by the violinist. Motion data is recorded, analysed, and compared with the expert’s data. This is done both quantitatively through data analysis xii as well as qualitatively by relating the motion data to other high-level features and structures of the musical excerpts. Solutions to issues regarding capturing and storing movement data and its use in real-time scenarios are proposed. For the interactive use of motion-sensing technologies in music performance, various wearable sensors have been employed, along with different approaches for mapping control data to sound synthesis and signal processing parameters. In particular, novel approaches for the extraction of meaningful features from raw sensor data and the use of machine learning techniques for mapping movement to live electronics are described. To complete the framework, an essential element of this research project is the com- position and performance of études that explore the creative use of body movement in instrumental music from a Practice-as-Research perspective. This works as a test bed for the proposed concepts and techniques. Mapping concepts and technologies are challenged in a scenario constrained by the use of musical instruments, and different mapping ap- proaches are implemented and compared. In addition, techniques for notating movement in the score, and the impact of interactive motion sensor systems in instrumental music practice from the performer’s perspective are discussed. Finally, the chapter concluding the part of the thesis dedicated to practical implementations describes a novel method for mapping movement data to sound synthesis. This technique is based on the analysis of multimodal motion data collected from multiple subjects and its design draws from the theoretical, analytical, and practical works described throughout the dissertation. Overall, the parts and the diverse approaches that constitute this thesis work in synergy, contributing to the ongoing discourses on the study of musical gestures and the design of interactive music systems from multiple angles.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this thesis was to build the Guitar Application ToolKit (GATK), a series of applications used to expand the sonic capabilities of the acoustic/electric stereo guitar. Furthermore, the goal of the GATK was to extend improvisational capabilities and the compositional techniques generated by this innovative instrument.
During the GATK creation process, the current production guitar techniques and overall sonic result were enhanced by planning and implementing a personalized electroacoustic performance set up, designing custom-made performance interfaces, creating interactive compositional strategies, crafting non-standardized sounds, and controlling various music parameters in real-time using the Max/MSP programming environment.
This was the first thesis project of its kind. It is expected that this thesis will be useful as a reference paper for electronic musicians and music technology students; as a product demonstration for companies that manufacture the relevant software; and as a personal portfolio for future technology related-jobs.

Album Notes For those who love the traditional music of Southwest Virginia, especially the many folks who make it, listening to these recordings will likely be a deeply emotional experience. Embedded within these recordings are cherished memories that connect people to the first time they ever heard a certain artist, or the first song they themselves ever learned on guitar. A Century of Heritage Guitar Music represents a shared experience of the people of The Crooked Road region - an experience that connects families and communities with their unique place and culture. Like The Crooked Road itself, this compilation is about music that is rooted in a particular place - a music that is perpetuated for the most part by barbers, farmers, luthiers, cabinet makers, and other folks who delight in the music-making at day's end. How remarkable that their music, made mostly for sharing with their friends and community, has had such a profound impact around the world. The Crooked Road is truly grateful for the opportunity to share the contributions of these amazing artists through this compilation.<br>https://dc.etsu.edu/etsu_books/1160/thumbnail.jpg

Includes bibliographical references.<br>As a viola player who is currently learning the viola da gamba sonatas, I have noted a significant dearth of literature in this focal area. This has been particularly evident when approaching the viola transcriptions of Bach’s solo cello suites and viola da gamba sonatas. My aim is to create a performance guide to J.S. Bach’s Three Sonatas for viola da gamba and Harpsichord (BWV 1027‐1029), transcribed for viola. I shall be comparing three editions of viola transcriptions to Bärenreiter’s Neue Bach Ausgabe, edited by Hans Eppstein. This comparison will focus on articulation markings and other editorial devices used to adapt the sonatas for the viola. An analysis of the articulation used by Bach and his copyists can only be undertaken if performance practice of the time is understood. The “Historically Informed Performance” (HIP) movement is central to this understanding, and has been the topic of much recent debate. Although the viola da gamba and viola are both string instruments, they differ in size and employ different techniques. Thus, should the articulation and timbre of the former be imitated in playing the latter? Or should the unique qualities of the viola be embraced to create a distinct sound? Thus, my interest in this research topic was piqued not only by the need for interpretative clarification; but also by the potential to address the specific technical difficulties arising due to the mechanics of the viola.

Full textAbstract:
In 2007, Radiohead released a downloadable album, In Rainbows, allowing consumers to pay what they thought the album was worth. The band responded to a moment of change in the music industry. Since then, other bands, like Nine Inch Nails and Coldplay, have made similar moves. Radiohead's capability to release an album and let the fans decide its worth relied on the image they built, which foregrounded their commodification. The historic move redefined the boundaries between art and commodity, a well know tension in popular music studies. The thesis focuses on popular music as communication in the changing industry. Using Radiohead’s album as a case study, it looks at the changing boundaries in the tension between art and commodity. The thesis examines Radiohead's performance, its mediation by the press, and what the album’s distribution method meant to the fans.

Full textAbstract:
<p> Benjamin Britten wrote five pieces for the viola, the most well-known being the <i>Lachrymae, Op. 48: Reflections on a song of Dowland</i> written in 1950 for the Scottish violist William Primrose. Britten’s other viola works were composed in 1930-1932 and were written for himself to perform as the violist. They were not published until after his death and have only recently been available for purchase. The intent of this treatise is to help make these lesser-known works to be more accessible for instructors in order to teach these pieces to young advancing violists. For the purpose of this study, advancing violists may be defined as students who generally are in high school or college with well-developed techniques such as vibrato, shifting, spiccato, and bow control. </p><p> This document includes a short biography of Benjamin Britten along with a pedagogical analysis of the pieces <i>Reflection for Viola and Piano (1930), Elegy for Viola Solo (1930), Two Portrait (1930) No. 2</i>, and <i> There is a Willow Grows Aslant a Brook</i>. The author studied each piece and worked with a pianist to establish proper tempos and fingerings. For rhythmically challenging ensemble passages, the author created original exercises for piano and viola to be played together. The author also has created original exercises for practicing difficult passages and improving techniques such as shifting. Musical examples, with alternate bowing and fingerings, are also discussed in this study.</p>

Full textAbstract:
Manually transcribing guitar tablature from an audio recording is a difficult and time-consuming process, even for experienced guitarists. While several algorithms have been developed to automatically extract the notes occurring in an audio recording, and several algorithms have been developed to produce guitar tablature arrangements of notes occurring in a music score, no frameworks have been developed to facilitate the combination of these algorithms. This work presents a web-based guitar tablature transcription framework capable of generating guitar tablature arrangements directly from an audio recording. The implemented transcription framework, entitled Robotaba, facilitates the creation of web applications in which polyphonic transcription and guitar tablature arrangement algorithms can be embedded. Such a web application is implemented, resulting in a unified system that is capable of transcribing guitar tablature from a digital audio recording and displaying the resulting tablature in the web browser. The performance of the implemented polyphonic transcription and guitar tablature arrangement algorithms are evaluated using several metrics on a new dataset of manual transcriptions gathered from tablature websites.<br>Transcrire à la main une tablature pour guitare à partir d'un enregistrement audio est un processus difficile et long, même pour les guitaristes chevronnés. Bien que plusieurs algorithmes aient été créés pour extraire automatiquement les notes d'un enregistrement audio, et d'autres pour préparer des arrangements de notes de tablature pour guitare tels qu'on les retrouve dans la création musicale, aucun environnement n'a été mise en place pour faciliter l'association de ces algorithmes. Le travail qui suit présente un environnement accessible sur l'Internet, permettant la transcription et la préparation d'arrangements de tablatures de guitare, directement à partir d'un enregistrement audio. Cet environnement de transcription, nommée Robotaba, facilite la création d'applications Web, dans lesquelles la transcription polyphonique et les algorithmes d'arrangements de tablature pour guitare peuvent être intégrés. Une telle application Web permet d'obtenir un système unifié, capable de transcrire une tablature pour guitare à partir d'un enregistrement audio numérique, et d'afficher la tablature obtenue dans un navigateur Web. La performance de la transcription polyphonique mise en place et des algorithmes d'arrangements de tablature pour guitare est évaluée à l'aide de plusieurs paramètres et d'un nouvel ensemble de données, constitué de transcriptions manuelles recueillies dans des sites Web consacrés aux tablatures.

This thesis is an investigation on the influences that the Spanish Guitar and the traditional music from Spain had on the impressionistic composers of the late 19th century and early 20th century. I have also inquired on the opposite influence, the impressionistic influence on Spanish composers.It contains a description of the characteristics of the two musical genres, informations on their most renowned composers’ composing style and an analysis on two relevant pieces of the guitarist and orchestral repertoire.I found out a very strong link between the two genres, with Impressionism being very influenced by the traditional Flamenco style and the guitaristic idiomatic language and on the other hand the Spanish composers including in their compositions the new Impressionistic composing techniques and its new research on colors and timbres.Keywords:

Full textAbstract:
This thesis focuses on the articulation in music of human worldviews, and the social contexts in which they emerge. It suggests that people project various forms of social reality through symbolic systems which operate dynamically to maintain and recreate cultural patterns. The symbolic system investigated in support of this suggestion is that constituted by Venda guitar songs. In the performance of these songs, social reality emerges in a combination of symbolic forms: verbal, musical and somatic. The combination of these symbolic forms serves as a medium for individual self-awareness basic to the establishment of social reality and identity, and the drive for social power and legitimacy. A study of these symbolic forms and their performance indicates that musicians invoke the potential of communal music to increase social support for certain principles on which survival strategies in a turbulently changing society might be based. The discourse of Venda guitar songs incorporates modes of popular expression and consciousness, and thus attempts to invoke states of intensified emotion to promote these survival strategies. Performance occasions emerge as a focus for community orientation and the exploration of social networks. They promote stabilizing social and economic interaction, and serve as a basis for moral and cooperative action. Social reality also emerges in musical style, which is treated as the audible articulation of human thought and emotion. Stylistic choices are treated as integral to the conceptualization of contemporary existence. A study of these choices reveals varying degrees of cultural resistance and assimilation, ranging from musical styles which are essentially rooted in traditional social patterns, to styles which integrate traditional and adopted musical elements as articulations of changing self-perceptions, social aspirations, and quests for new social identity.

Full textAbstract:
<p> As researchers learn more about the human mind, educators adapt their curriculum to accommodate those findings. As these changes take place, school districts are offering different types of classes to help more students find success in their classes. One of the ways that music educators can contribute to these changes is to offer music classes other than the traditional band, choir and orchestra class. By adding a guitar class to the music curriculum, music teachers are opening the doors for more students to be able to learn about music and learn to play an instrument. Particularly, a guitar class is an effective way to include students with special needs in a music program. </p><p> This thesis will investigate adaptations designed for three students with special needs in a high school guitar class. Student A has been diagnosed as Autistic, Student B has been diagnosed with Asperger's disorder and also has behavioral issues and Student C has been diagnosed with a specific learning disability as evidenced in the areas of auditory processing and expression. The case studies provide an example of how accommodations and adaptations can easily be implemented within a guitar class curriculum for students with these types of learning disabilities.</p>

The guitar orchestra has given me the opportunity to learn and it has given another sense to my knowledge as musician and teacher. Analysing what I have done with the guitar orchestra has awakened more questions than answers. What exactly did I do? Why did I do it? Was it really effective?

essential to establishing relationships with mathematics. Our e orts were focused on
instruments with strings, by which present a relationship between a musical scale,
called Chromatic and geometric progressions; also we present a relationship between
musical intervals and right triangles. We present a mathematical relationship between
music and colors, through their respective frequencies of sound and light. Also we
address the present mathematics in the construction of some instruments with strings,
via Golden Proportion, and nished the work presented some proposals for activities
that can be worked in the classroom, aimed at high school students.<br>Este trabalho traz uma proposta de estudos da relação existente entre a Matemática

Full textAbstract:
Streamlined is a musical composition for chamber orchestra. The entire piece was created from four basic musical fragments. These fragments are used melodically and as "roots" for chord progressions, eventually rendering melody and harmonic progression as one entity. These chord progressions move slowly from one chord to the other, through several intermediate chord progressions, metamorphosing into each other through carefully calculated and executed transformative processes.

Full textAbstract:
In this thesis I’m writing about Dmitri Shostakovich’s only Viola Sonata. I’ve read about Shostakovich life and analysed the sonata. Shostakovich’s Sonata is one of the first pieces from the composer that I have listened to and gotten familiar with. It’s one of the most played viola sonatas and a one of a kind in Russian modern music. The purpose is to dig deep into the music and to understand it. Questions like “why am I playing this like this?” or “how should I do this?” regarding the interpretation of the music is the core of this study. The research is also trying to be of help to get an image of viola music overall and what is the place of Shostakovich’s Viola Sonata in this world. How the piece was reacting to the world around it and how it was affected by the history of viola music and what is its position in the future.

"Broadening the Repertoire for Guitar and Piano: An Arrangement of Bachianas Brasileiras No. 1 by Heitor Villa-Lobos." Doctoral diss., 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/2286/R.I.40780.
Full textAbstract:
abstract: The repertoire for guitar and piano duo is small in comparison with other chamber music instrumentation; therefore, it is important to broaden this repertoire. In addition to creating original compositions, arrangements of existing works contribute to this expansion.
This project focuses on an arrangement of Bachianas Brasileiras No. 1 by Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos (1887-1959), a work originally conceived for cello ensemble with a minimum of eight cellos. In order to contextualize the proposed arrangement, this study contains a brief historical listing of the repertoire for guitar and piano duo and of the guitar works by Villa-Lobos. Also, it includes a description of the Bachianas Brasileiras series and a discussion of the arranging methodology that shows how the original musical ideas of the composer were adapted using techniques that are idiomatic to the guitar and piano. The full arrangement is included in Appendix A.<br>Dissertation/Thesis<br>Doctoral Dissertation Music 2016
