The carillon is one of the few instruments that elicit sophisticated haptic interaction from amateur and professional players alike. Like the piano keyboard, the velocity of a player’s impact on each carillon key, or baton, affects the quality of the resultant tone; unlike the piano, each carillon baton returns a different forcefeedback. Force-feedback varies widely from one baton to the next a...

De que modo podemos trazer abrangencia para a educacao ou formacao pianistica de professores, alunos e musicos-interpretes se sintam mais seguros tocando com autoridade performatica? Eis questao-problema questao-chave norteou o presente trabalho. Outrossim, fundamentamos nosso estudo no metodo analitico-descritivo base na Revisao Bibliografica. Neste artigo cientifico, comentaremos sobre as dif...

We developed an automatic piano performance system called Polyhymnia that is able to generate expressive polyphonic piano performances with music scores so that it can be used as a computer-based tool for an expressive performance. The system automatically renders expressive piano music by means of automatic musical symbol interpretation and statistical models of structure-expression relations ...

and canyon sediments in several canyon reaches are contaminated with low-levels of radionuclides from hisFollowing the May 2000 Cerro Grande fire at Los Alamos, NM, toric LANL operations (Reneau et al., 1998). To mitisurface water control structures were constructed near Los Alamos to mitigate the transport of contaminant-bearing sediment toward the gate potential off-site migration of these se...

This study aimed to identify biographical predictors of children pianists’ motor skills in a relevant musical context. Motor skills at the piano were assessed in 30 piano-playing children by testing temporal evenness in standardized scale playing which is a basic element of piano technique. Questionnaires were used to collect detailed information regarding the practice habits and other biograph...

Nowadays, developed and applied hydrology become very important thing in the life due to the wide verity advantages for the applications of this field. Hydraulic Structures such as crump weir are placed in channels to estimate or measure flow rate and flow control devices. In this study there is a new performance for crump weir which appears by adding opening holes in the model  of crump weir. ...
