In order to define exactely some points and to see what
music teachers think about this project, the following questions have
been asked to music school teachers, independant music teachers, and university
music teachers.
1 - Do you you think such a tool would be useful ?
2 - This program would allow to detect played errors. Which kind of errors
should be detected first ?
- Note errors (wrong note, skip note, extra added note...)
- Tempo and rhythm errors (note and rest duration, regularity...)
- Dynamic and phrasing errors (general dynamics, accentuation, legato/staccato...)
3 - Should the detected errors be immediately pointed out, or just be
indicated when the play is finished ?
4 - How can we indicate errors in real-time ?
- With a sound (like a "bip")
- With a visual signal on the screen
- other :
5 - At the end of the performance, a report could be delivered by the
program. Which information would you like to have in this report ?
- "numerical" data (measure number, beat...)
- Error "diagnostic" : a short explaination of the error (ex
: you have played a A, you should have played a A# )
- The possibility to hear one's error and to compare it with what should
have been played.
- Error statistics (errors number, repeated errors...)
- Other data :
6 - For which kind of musicians would be this program more useful (beginners,
medium level, high level...) ?
7 - Would you like the performance to be compared to the "real, fixed
and perfect" score, or with a more flexible model, like the piece
played by an experienced musician ?
8 - If such a program would exist, would you like te work with it (for
exemple by asking your students to give you their reports to see their
progression)
9 - Other suggests ?
