A Expressão da Cabo-verdianidade na Obra musical de Beto Dias

Para a realização deste trabalho monográfico, propôs-se um tema na área da Cultura Caboverdiana, sob o título, A Expressão da Cabo-verdianidade na Obra Musical de Beto Dias. O que se almeja trabalhar neste estudo monográfico é a mensagem transmitida nas composições musicais de Beto Dias e a sua relevância para a compreensão da cabo-verdianidade e não a querela à volta dos contornos da música nacional, em toda a sua abrangência e pertinência, ou seja, não se discute no presente os ritmos, as melodias, as influências e os géneros musicais subjacentes à questão. Com efeito, o compositor e intérprete, Beto Dias produziu uma vasta obra musical através de inúmeras composições, por si próprio interpretadas em vários discos, onde trata temas do quotidiano cabo-verdiano. Entretanto, ninguém se debruçou ainda sobre a referida obra com o fim de identificar na mesma a expressão da alma crioula e da cabo verdianidade, elementos psicossociais importantes para a compreensão do sócio-cultural cabo-verdiano.

Cartelera musical : del Renacimiento al Barroco

El título del siguiente trabajo está inspirado en la revista Billboard (U.S.A.), lista de éxitos musicales (U.S.A.,1936), y la Cartella Musicale de Adriano Banchieri (Venecia, 1601), queriendo hacer homenaje a las músicas o melodías más escuchadas. Este fenómeno que aparentemente involucra sólo la recepción, fue muy común durante el s. XVI (período en el cual nos centraremos), pero también mucho antes y hasta nuestros días. El término técnico utilizado para el estudio del mismo, será el de “préstamo”, en música, desarrollado por varios musicólogos pero principalmente por Peter Burkholder. Este proceso ha involucrado no sólo la recepción, sino también la composición, interpretación, intercambio, etc. Mi idea es argumentar y documentar en la medida de lo posible este fenómeno mediante algunos ejemplos concretos.

Els baixonets a Catalunya : una aproximació organològica, funcional i del repertori : el fons musical de Canet de Mar

Aquest treball fa un estudi dels baixonets a Catalunya des de les perspectives organològica, funcional i del repertori. A partir de les informacions aportades pels instruments originals, pels tractats i per estudis especialitats, es defineixen una tipologia instrumental pròpiament hispànica, i unes funcions principalment relacionades amb la música vocal religiosa de mitjans del segle XVI a mitjans del segle XVIII. Posteriorment, es realitza un estudi de la música amb baixonet a la localitat de Canet de Mar. A partir del treball de camp al seu arxiu parroquial, es compilen vuit obres específiques per a baixonet, se'n transcriuen alguns manuscrits, i se'n defineixen els principals aspectes formals i funcionals. El cas de Canet de Mar es pot considerar com un exemple més o menys representatiu de la pràctica instrumental i del repertori específic del baixonet a Catalunya a finals del segle XVII i començaments del segle XVIII.

Are Americans' musical preferences more omnivores today?

Although we found a general trend favouring the omnivorousness thesis, as soon as we adjusted it to a set of structural factors and consumers tastes it was clear that this was caused by elitist inclusive omnivores who had increased the scope of their tastes. In general, younger cohorts were becoming less omnivorous, nevertheless, they were also becoming more educated and had greater to higher levels of inc ome, making the youth moreomnivorous. As expected, upscale consumers set limits on their popular taste: musicalgenres, whose audiences had educational levels below the mean profile were less preferredby upscale respondents. In spite of this, as time passed, some popular brows gained socialstatus.

Position statement--altitude training for improving team-sport players' performance: current knowledge and unresolved issues.

Despite the limited research on the effects of altitude (or hypoxic) training interventions on team-sport performance, players from all around the world engaged in these sports are now using altitude training more than ever before. In March 2013, an Altitude Training and Team Sports conference was held in Doha, Qatar, to establish a forum of research and practical insights into this rapidly growing field. A round-table meeting in which the panellists engaged in focused discussions concluded this conference. This has resulted in the present position statement, designed to highlight some key issues raised during the debates and to integrate the ideas into a shared conceptual framework. The present signposting document has been developed for use by support teams (coaches, performance scientists, physicians, strength and conditioning staff) and other professionals who have an interest in the practical application of altitude training for team sports. After more than four decades of research, there is still no consensus on the optimal strategies to elicit the best results from altitude training in a team-sport population. However, there are some recommended strategies discussed in this position statement to adopt for improving the acclimatisation process when training/competing at altitude and for potentially enhancing sea-level performance. It is our hope that this information will be intriguing, balanced and, more importantly, stimulating to the point that it promotes constructive discussion and serves as a guide for future research aimed at advancing the bourgeoning body of knowledge in the area of altitude training for team sports.
