INTERPRETACJE RUCHOWE MUZYKI W METODZIE RYTMIKI EMILA JAQUES-DALCROZE’A
No full textThe method of learning and experiencing music through movement is proposed by Emil Jaques-Dalcroze at the beginning of the 20th century as a very complex, holistic method of artistic education, that leads to harmonious development of man through the movement. Connected with it integrally interpretation of movement/rhythm and music determines the legible and interesting proposal of the cognition of music. The essence of "motorial music" interpretation - the synthesis of music and of planned movement in space - appeals to contemporary determinants of the contemplation of art. The perception of music in general is often associated with activity in the supplementary motor cortex, as is shown in the D. S. Levitin research (This is your brain in music" (quoted in Bader 2013, 398), published by Dulton, NY in 2006.), pointing to a strong influence of movement and perception in music. Moreover, an author desires to emphasize these words with large determination: Let us not be afraid of to be created artistic visions of music in the movement and space, marked by the features of individuals, because, exactly motorial music is the perfect manner of the perception of a musical work, which makes both performers and receivers part of the whole, involving them in the world of music
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

Rediscovering the Émile Jaques-Dalcroze Approach in the Training of Music Professionals
No full textA finales de siglo XIX, Émile Jaques-Dalcroze desarrolló un enfoque educativo que tuvo como
propósito ayudar a los estudiantes del Conservatorio de Música de Ginebra, Suiza, a vencer los retos técnico-musicales que enfrentaban en su formación profesional. Las áreas de oportunidad que
Jaques-Dalcroze observó en sus discípulos hace más de 100 años, son las mismas que muchos
estudiantes tienen hoy en muchas escuelas de música. Desgraciadamente, a pesar del éxito que
alcanzó, en la actualidad el enfoque Jaques-Dalcroze se ha desaprovechado casi por completo en
la formación de los estudiantes en niveles superiores. En el presente artículo, se reflexiona sobre la
vigencia de este enfoque pedagógico-musical, se proporciona una revisión en torno a las enormes
aportaciones que hace a la formación del músico profesional y se ofrece algunas recomendaciones
para su aplicación en las escuelas de música en niveles superiores. Finalmente, el autor exhorta a las
autoridades y maestros de los conservatorios, facultades y departamentos de música a considerar
su incorporación en los planes de estudio como un recurso pedagógico de gran valorBy the end of the 19th century, Émile Jaques-Dalcroze developed an educational approach that
aimed to help the students of the Conservatory of Music in Geneva, Switzerland, to overcome the technical and musical challenges they faced in their professional training. The areas of opportunity that
Jaques-Dalcroze observed in his disciples more than 100 years ago, are the same much students
have today in many music schools. Unfortunately, in spite of the success achieved, the Jaques-Dalcroze approach has almost been completely dismissed in the training of professional musicians.
In the present article, the author reflects on the validity of this music education approach, provides
a review concerning its enormous contributions to the field of professional musicians’ training and
offers some recommendations for its application in tertiary music schools. Finally, the author urges
authorities and teachers of conservatories and music departments to consider its incorporation in
the curricula as a pedagogical resource of great value
Euro area governance: What went wrong in the euro area? How to repair it? Bruegel Policy Contribution 2010/05, June 2010
No full textBruegel Director Jean Pisani-Ferry focuses on the institutional response to the euro area crisis with the Van Rompuy Task Force being set up to reform economic governance. The task force is due to present its progress report shortly and the author examines two basic questions in this context– what went wrong in the euro area (and the lessons learnt from this) and consequently what are the three choices for reforming governance. He explains why implementation of existing rules need to be strengthened and why the Van Rompuy Task Force should revisit the fundamental principles on which the EMU is founded and resist the temptation to solely address divergences
