Interactions between Music and Social Environment in the Context of a Session
Damien Verron · Presses universitaires de Caen eBooks · 2013
This paper questions the problem of interactions in order to understand whether several environmental parameters that musicians face within the context of a session, might affect, consciously or not, their musical performance, and if these potential alterations appear to be effectively translated into music as “sound”. This question is tackled by comparing versions of two specific tunes, interpreted during two different sessions, thus implying different environments. While using this “comparative” approach, our purpose is to point out several significant variants that might confirm whether the environmental impact does materialise itself in the music strictly considered as sound.
