The Application of the Kinesthetic Sense: an Introduction of Body Awareness in Cello Pedagogy and Performance
The Application of the Kinesthetic Sense: An Introduction of Body Awareness in Cello Pedagogy and Performance A document submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in the Performance Studies Division of the College-Conservatory of Music March 2014 by Gustavo Carpinteyro-Lara BM, University of Southern Mississippi, 2001 MM, Bowling Green State University, 2003 Committee Chair: Lee Fiser, BM Abstract This document on cello pedagogy and playing focuses on the importance of the kinesthetic sense as it relates to teaching and performance quality. William Conable, creator of body mapping, has described how the kinesthetic sense or movement sense provides information about the body’s position and size, and whether the body is moving and, if so, where and how. In addition Craig Williamson, pioneer of Somatic Integration, claims that the kinesthetic sense enables one to sense what the body is doing at any time, including muscular effort, tension, relaxation, balance, spatial orientation, distance, and proportion. Cellists can develop and awaken the kinesthetic sense in order to have conscious body awareness, and to understand that cello playing is a physical, aerobic, intellectual, and musical activity. This document describes the physical, motion, aerobic, anatomic, and kinesthetic approach to cello playing and is supported by somatic education methods, such as the Alexander Technique, Feldenkrais Method, and Yoga. By applying body awareness and kinesthesia in cello playing, cellists can have freedom, balance, ease in their movements, and an intelligent way of playing and performing. ii Copyright © 2014 by Gustavo Carpinteyro-Lara. -

Baroque Instruments The Baroque Cello and Its Performance Marc Vanscheeuwijck The instrument we now call a cello (or violoncello) apparently deve- loped during the first decades of the 16th century from a combina- tion of various string instruments of popular European origin (espe- cially the rebecs) and the vielle. Although nothing precludes our hypothesizing that the bass of the violins appeared at the same time as the other members of that family, the earliest evidence of its existence is to be found in the treatises of Agricola,1 Gerle,2 Lanfranco,3 and Jambe de Fer.4 Also significant is a fresco (1540- 42) attributed to Giulio Cesare Luini in Varallo Sesia in northern Italy, in which an early cello is represented (see Fig. 1). 1 Martin Agricola, Musica instrumentalis deudsch (Wittenberg, 1529; enlarged 5th ed., 1545), f.

Media Les Sacqueboutiers ensemble de cuivres anciens de Toulouse Artistic Direction : Jean-Pierre Canihac et Daniel Lassalle Les Sacqueboutiers, an ensemble based in Toulouse, playing on early brass instruments have been in existence for nearly four decades during which time they have built up a reputation as one of the finest early music ensembles on the international scene. Regarded by specialists and the public alike as a reference in the interpretation of seventeenth-century instrumental music, particularly that of Italy and Germany, the ensemble has reaped the highest awards for its recordings. When they decided to form Les Sacqueboutiers in 1976, Jean-Pierre Canihac and Jean-Pierre Mathieu were among the first to embark on the adventurous rediscovery of early instruments. The quality of their work soon attracted attention, and they took part in the groundbreaking recording of Monteverdi's Vespro della Beata Vergine, conducted by Michel Corboz. Since then, they have per-formed music ranging from the Renaissance to Mozart, with many prestigious ensembles including Les Arts Florissants (William Christie), La Chapelle Royale (Philippe Herreweghe), A Sei Voci (Bernard Fabre-Garrus), Elyma (Gabriel Garrido), La Grande Ecurie et la Chambre du Roy (Jean-Claude Malgoire), the Clément Janequin Ensemble (Dominique Visse).. -
Basic Principles of the Alexander Technique Applied to Cello Pedagogy in Three Case Studies
Basic Principles of the Alexander Technique Applied to Cello Pedagogy in Three Case Studies A document submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in the Performance Studies Division of the College-Conservatory of Music May, 2012 by Sae Rom Kwon BM, Eastman School of Music, 2003 MM, Eastman School of Music, 2005 Committee Chair: Yehuda Hanani Abstract The Alexander Technique helps its adherents improve posture and to use muscles and joints of the body efficiently. F. Mathias Alexander, an Australian actor, developed the technique in the 1890s to deal with difficulties he experienced on stage, such as chronic hoarseness. The technique attracted many followers in subsequent generations, including musicians, who are prone to physical problems due to long rehearsal hours. Elizabeth Valentine and others have sufficiently shown the effectiveness of the Alexander Technique for musicians through clinical studies. The focus of this document is more practical in nature. It consists of three case studies of individual cello students who struggle with specific problems to examine the results of practical solutions drawn from the principles of the Alexander Technique. Within five concurrent lessons, each student demonstrated consistent improvement in their problem areas. These case studies provide a basic introduction to this method and can help applied music teachers see the benefits of applying the Alexander Technique in the studio. ii Copyright © 2012 by Sae Rom Kwon.

All three Platform meetings have brought interesting ideas and generated reflections that the Pop & Jazz Platform Working Group (PJP WG) would like to share with higher music education (HME) institutions around Europe. “Yesterday, in the excellent keynote by Dominic Murcott, I heard a beautiful, well-articulated and passionate plea. A plea to rethink what higher music education stands for. A plea for the musician as an artist, rather than a performer. A plea for music as an art, rather than a skill. A plea for a revaluation of creativity, originality and imagination. A plea that propels us forward in asking existential questions. -
A Handbook of Cello Technique for Performers
CELLO MAP: A HANDBOOK OF CELLO TECHNIQUE FOR PERFORMERS AND COMPOSERS By Ellen Fallowfield A Thesis Submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Music College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham October 2009 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract Many new sounds and new instrumental techniques have been introduced into music literature since 1950. The popular approach to support developments in modern instrumental technique is the catalogue or notation guide, which has led to isolated special effects. Several authors of handbooks of technique have pointed to an alternative, strategic, scientific approach to technique as an ideological ideal. I have adopted this approach more fully than before and applied it to the cello for the first time. This handbook provides a structure for further research. In this handbook, new techniques are presented alongside traditional methods and a ‘global technique’ is defined, within which every possible sound-modifying action is considered as a continuous scale, upon which as yet undiscovered techniques can also be slotted. -

The Cello Bow Held the Viol
Chelys 24, article 4 [47] THE CELLO BOW HELD THE VIOL- WAY; ONCE COMMON, BUT NOW ALMOST FORGOTTEN Mark Smith Ample evidence can be found tO show that many early cellists, including some of the most distinguished, held the bow with the hand under. It seems likely that hand-under bow-holds were more cOmmon than hand-over bow- holds for cellists (at least outside of France) until about 1730, and it is certain that some important solO cellists used a hand-under bow-hold not only until 1730, but well intO the second-half of the eighteenth century. TherefOre, a significant part of the early cellO repertory (perhaps some of it well-known today) must have been first played with the hand under the bow. Until now, hand-under bow-holds have been discussed only superficially by historians of the cello.1 With more information, I hope that some cellists may try such a bow-hold in the cOmpositions which were or may have been originally played that way. Iconographic evidence Little written information about any aspect of cellO technique is known earlier than the oldest dated cellO method, that of Corrette in 1741.2 However, there are hundreds of pictures Of cellists earlier than 1741, and these provide the bulk of information about bow-holds up tO that time (see Table 1). 1 have studied 259 paintings, drawings, engravings and other works of art depicting cellists, from the earliest-known example, dating from about 1535, up tO 1800.3 The number Of depictions is probably tOO small tO give an accurate estimation of the actual number and distributiOn of cellists using the twO bow-holds.
