EMOTIONAL COLOURING IN AUTOMATIC PIANO MUSIC PERFORMANCE
An important contribution in music performance is given by the emotional
component, often marked in the score by the composer with Italian words,
such as Con fuoco, Tenero, Vivace, Brillante. From studies in music
psychology it emerges that musicians use particular acoustic cues when
performing the same score with different emotional intentions and that
listeners use the same set of cues for decoding these emotions.
Mr. Bresin will illustrate recent results in the analysis/synthesis
of expressive piano music performance, and the possibility to obtain
musical and emotionally different performances of the same score by
"hyper-articulating" the performance of the score itself using the
Director Musices (DM) program. DM is a software tool for automatic
performance of music that has been developed in the Music Acoustics
Group at the Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm. More information
