Performing in musical ensembles provides a remarkable opportunity
for interaction between people. When playing a piece of music
together, musicians contribute to the creation of an artistic work
that is shaped through their individual performances. However, even
though ensembles are a large part of musical activity, questions
remain as to how they function. In Embodied Knowledge in Ensemble
Performance, Murphy McCaleb explores the processes by which
musicians interact with each other through performance. McCaleb
begins by breaking down current models of ensemble interaction,
particularly those that rely on the same kind of communication
found in conversation. In order to find a new way of describing
this interaction, McCaleb considers the nature of the information
being shared between musicians during performance. Using examples
from postgraduate ensembles at Birmingham Conservatoire as well as
his own reflective practice, he examines how an understanding of
the relationship between musicians and their instruments may affect
the way performers infer information within an ensemble. Drawing
upon research from musicology, occupational psychology, and
philosophy, and including downloadable resources of excerpts from
rehearsals and performances, Embodied Knowledge provides an
holistic approach to ensemble research in a manner accessible to
performers, researchers and teachers.
