Singing and Playing - A Kodály Approach to Cello Playing
(2023)
author(s): Alice Andreani
published in: KC Research Portal
Alice Andreani - Classical Cello
Research Supervisor: Daniel Salbert
Research Title: "Singing and Playing - A Kodály Approach to Cello Playing".
Research Question: “What are the effects that the practicing of exercises involving singing and playing has on cello playing?
The objective of my research is to draw attention to the importance of developing and training musicianship skills; in this paper I will argue on why musicianship training should receive as much importance as studying the technique of an instrument.
I will specifically focus on the effects that practicing exercises involving singing and playing on the cello, has on the development of a good inner hearing and musicianship skills over time, as well as how singing is proven to be an helpful tool in combination with playing, when approaching a piece from the cello chamber or orchestral repertoire.
This research is based on literature research and practice based research. It includes a series of 40 exercises for cello and voice written by me as well as guidelines on how to practice singing and playing.
