- IRIN: micromontage in graphical sound editing and mixing toolPublication . Caires, CarlosABSTRACT - Micromontage technique allows the composer to work a musical figure point by point, shaping each sound particle with microscopic precision. The software presented in this paper combines graphic and script editing with algorithmic generation and manipulation of sound sequences. It provides several tools to enhance both creation and organic development of the musical material under this compositional paradigm using a user-friendy visual environment.
- The public performance: impact to music learning in conservatoire traditionPublication . Cardoso, FranciscoABSTRACT: In specialist music schools public performances tend to be given a more evaluative role. Students seem to be expected to get those occasions ready to show off their skills, their performance proficiency, the newly learned repertoire. Teachers tend also to look to public performance as an adequate way to measure students' progress, and as a privileged way for identifying students' potential to become performers. In this presentation it is proposed a formative use of public performance. As a tool for instrumental teachers, public performances may help students to develop motivation, acquire and develop performance skills, and to spend more time practising.
