Abstract:
The thesis is a critical reading of pedagogical and biographical texts by and on violinists, written in the early twentieth century. It contributes to historical and discursive studies by providing a limited engagement with a largely neglected group of historical sources relating to musical performance, and further advances the historical research on subjectivity, the body, pathology, and erotics, in relation to discourses of music. The thesis also contributes to studies of performance practice, and empirical and psychological studies of musical performance, in that it engages with discursive

Abstract:
Music is a creative art involving the expression of feeling and spontaneity. This artistry demands the mastery of musical instruments, of which the violin is one. Traditional violin methodology has been the accepted way to develop the art of violin playing, but technology and the internet have provided different approaches to teaching methods. This thesis addresses the degree to which these different approaches may or may not enhance violin teaching and learning. In the first instance this thesis looks at the function of the online learning platform YouTube, and then at the teaching methodolog

Abstract:
The compatibility of the instrument with human physical abilities and characteristics is one of the principles in ergonomics. Inadequate instrument set-ups and sizes that mismatch the player’s physical attributes is frequently cited as one of the risk factors contributing to the development of playing-related musculoskeletal disorders (PRMDs) in violin and piano performers. For violinists, playing in a sustained asymmetric posture is inevitable and it has been observed that the left upper limb, which is the side that supports the instrument, is predominantly symptomatic in upper string players

Despite Bartók's lasting international fame, some of his works remain unjustly lesser-known. One of the pieces that still resides in relative obscurity is his Violin Concerto No.1—a gem of the violin repertoire that must be brought to the broader public's attention. The fact that the concerto was hidden definitely contributed to its little–known status at first. However, the most important cause for the lack of enthusiasm to tackle this terrific work lies in the unorthodox demands it puts on the violinist.

Abstract:
This document examines Rodney Friend’s approach to violin technique for the left hand, with specific emphasis on the execution of fifths. The application of this technique plays a valuable role in establishing correct hand positioning, creating consistent intonation, improving vibrato, and adding to the palette of colors available to the violinist. Mr. Friend is an esteemed violinist, a perceptive pedagogue, and a dedicated mentor in today’s music world, and, in those roles, he exemplifies the qualities of beauty, truth, and goodness that characterize meaningful engagement in the arts.

Abstract:
Violin performance and pedagogy have been a central thread in my life for many years. The art of communicating something you love to others, is a very special occupation. I became interested in the work of Jan Sedivka as a young student violinist in Western Australia, where the knowledge of the existence of a 'great old master' Jiving in _Tasmania was in the hack uf my mind. My first enc_ounter with Sedivka occurred when I participated in one of his master classes. During this class a contemporary of mine performed the first movement of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto and I heard my fir

碩士<br>國立臺北科技大學<br>電子工程系<br>106<br>This study proposes a way to judge whether a violin performance is good or not, thereby helping violin beginners understand how to improve in terms of pitch and timbre. For timbre analysis, we define three judgment classes, namely "good", "bad", and "general". The judgment methods we developed include Gaussian mixture model (GMM) classifier, support vector machine(SVM), and naive Bayes classifier (NBC). The experimental results show that the support vector machine performs the best, which achieves the classification accuracy of 89.5%. In addition, for pitch an

Abstract:
abstract: There are a significant number of musical compositions for violin by composers who used folk songs and dances of various cultures in their music, including works by George Enescu, Béla Bartók and György Ligeti. Less known are pieces that draw on the plethora of melodies and rhythms from Turkey. The purpose of this paper is to help performers become more familiar with two such compositions: Fazil Say's Sonata for Violin and Piano and Cleopatra for Solo Violin. Fazil Say (b. 1970) is considered to be a significant, contemporary Turkish composer. Both of the works discussed in this docu

碩士<br>輔仁大學<br>音樂研究所<br>101<br>Abstract Despite being a pianist, violin playing techniques used in Ravel’s “Violin Sonata” have been highly praised by critics. In the writing of the work, Ravel added personal ingenuity to the piece carefully and deliberately that brings a distinctive style and unique sound effects. The essay consists of five main parts: Chapter One Introduction starts by presenting research motivation and method; Chapter Two gives insights into Ravel's life, a general overview of Ravel’s important works, and the motive and background of this sonata; Chapter Three focuses on str
