Abstract. The photostationary state (PSS) equilibrium between NO and NO2 is
reached within minutes in the atmosphere and can be described by the PSS
parameter, φ. Deviations from expected values of φ have
previously been used to infer missing oxidants in diverse locations, from
highly polluted regions to the extremely clean conditions observed in the
remote marine boundary layer (MBL), and have been interpreted as missing
understanding of fundamental photochemistry. Here, contrary to these
previous observations, we observe good agreement between PSS-derived
NO2 ([NO2]PSS ext.), calculated from measured NO, O3,
and jNO2 and photochemical box model predictions of peroxy radicals
(RO2 and HO2), and observed NO2 ([NO2]Obs.) in
extremely clean air containing low levels of CO (<90 ppbV) and
VOCs (volatile organic compounds). However, in clean air containing small amounts of aged pollution (CO > 100 ppbV), we observed higher levels of NO2 than inferred
from the PSS, with [NO2]Obs. / [NO2]PSS ext. of
1.12–1.68 (25th–75th percentile), implying underestimation of
RO2 radicals by 18.5–104 pptV. Potential NO2 measurement artefacts
have to be carefully considered when comparing PSS-derived NO2 to
observed NO2, but we show that the NO2 artefact required to
explain the deviation would have to be ∼ 4 times greater than
the maximum calculated from known interferences. If the additional RO2
radicals inferred from the PSS convert NO to NO2 with a reaction rate
equivalent to that of methyl peroxy radicals (CH3O2), then the
calculated net ozone production rate (NOPR, ppbV h−1) including these
additional oxidants is similar to the average change in O3 observed,
within estimated uncertainties, once halogen oxide chemistry is accounted
for. This implies that such additional peroxy radicals cannot be excluded
as a missing oxidant in clean marine air containing aged pollution and that
modelled RO2 concentrations are significantly underestimated under
these conditions.

Introduction — Ricoeur and the Question of Religion
Authors: Junker-Kenny Maureen
Published: December 2022

Introduction to the volume “Ricoeur and the Question of Religion”
Philosophie, sciences sociales, et herméneutique. L’anthropologie interprétative de Johann Michel dans Homo interpretans
Authors: Lelièvre Samuel
Published: December 2022

Johann Michel’s Homo Interpretans aims at giving an account of the common ground to the question of interpretation, in a general sense covering ordinary as well as scholarly practices and conceptions, and to the question of philosophical anthropology. Important aspects of Ricoeur’s philosophy are also discussed throughout the book. The author’s thesis is that interpretation takes place whenever an understanding of the world is missing, be it on an ordinary way or in a more elaborate relationship to knowledge. This common ground gives rise to an interpretive anthropology which rearticulates the connection between philosophical discourse, the human and social sciences, and hermeneutics. Finally, the universality of homo interpretans is discussed as it relates to this project of reformulating hermeneutics and the difference between the more ordinary, exploratory level of interpretation and the level of interpretations institutionalized in human and social sciences.
Le Prix d’excellence des Ateliers d’été 2022 du Fonds Ricœur –« Dissonances mélodiques. Du cercle de la mimèsis à la Poétique du récit : une transition difficile »
Authors: Chacón Federico
Published: December 2022

This article points out some methodological difficulties in Time and Narrative. On the one hand, the imbalance in the re-elaboration of the mimetic model: the extensive treatment of the configurative and the refigurative components contrasts with the indeterminacy which remains in the prefigurative component. On the other hand, there is a discontinuity between narrative refiguration and the hermeneutics of historical consciousness. A certain ambiguity of the “ontological” allows for the integration of the hermeneutics of historical consciousness and the prefigurative dimension of action. By limiting the scope of refiguration in this way, the poetic circle operates solely within the hermeneutic circle. The connectors of historical time and the theory of the act of reading are also related to the hermeneutics of action. Thus an alternative view of Time and Narrative emerges, where narrative ceases to be the main axis, and where praxis gives full meaning to the hermeneutic reflection, and thereby to the experience of time.

A textual and visual analysis of reporting practices of modern slavery risks in business operations and supply chains
Authors:   , Ahmed Shakoor
Published: December 2022

This thesis contributes to improving modern slavery legislation, guidance and disclosure practices of entities by detecting, deterring and disrupting modern slavery practices in operations and supply chains. This thesis developed a ‘best practice’ Modern Slavery Disclosure Index from 23 legislation and authoritative instruments. This index was employed to conduct in-depth and comprehensive textual and visual content analysis to explore, analyse and conceptualise mandatory corporate disclosure practices on modern slavery. This research provides new evidence for modern slavery disclosure research by demonstrating that impression management theory and institutional theory may explain the accounting for modern slavery concerning mandatory reporting obligations.
Reviving Heritage in Post-Soviet Eastern Europe: A Visual Approach To National Identity
Authors: Harrison Frances
Published: December 2022

This paper seeks to demonstrate the controversial nature of heritage as it is expressed through visual media in the former Soviet republics. I explore Soviet-era emblems of cultural heritage in a post-Soviet context specifically to illuminate their influence on national identity. Drawing from imagery in the Baltic States, Belarus, and Ukraine I demonstrate how today’s lingering symbols of communist nationalism obscure the realization of national identity from being completely non-Soviet. Examples such as Grutas Park, Freedom Square and Minsk’s steadfast urban design illustrate how remembrance of the Soviet past through visual media poses a social conflict to transitional change in Eastern Europe.
Museums Narrating the Nation: Case Studies from Greece and Bosnia-Herzegovina
Authors: Taylor Evan
Published: December 2022

A museum that represents a community’s history and culture has the ability to influence the way that visitors understand that community in the present. In this paper, museums in Greece and Bosnia-Herzegovina are examined as case studies in order to better understand how museums attempt to narrate national identity to visitors, both domestic and international. Critical analysis of exhibits in these museums reveal that museum narratives often attempt to project the image of singular national identities. Meanwhile, they may deny the history of place of other contemporary or historic communities that are held in disfavor by those who influence the development of exhibits. In Greece, museums project a ‘Greek’ identity based on Classical, Byzantine, and post-Ottoman history. Museums in Bosnia-Herzegovina emphasize a unifying, shared history of the state’s three main ethnic communities without recognizing the profound differences felt between these communities today. Thus, these institutions may be seen as attempts at encouraging visitors to imagine the nation in one way only, without recognizing pluralism. While these case studies do not necessarily represent a universal trend, they demonstrate the need to reflect upon the place of such museums in contemporary society.
The Métis Nation Through Anderson's Lens
Authors: Stringer Randa
Published: December 2022

Throughout a history of struggle the Métis have continually fought to be recognized as a distinct nation. An interesting perspective from which to examine the Métis nationhood is the use of Benedict Anderson’s theory of a nation as an ‘imagined community’. Anderson’s criteria state that a nation must be limited, have sovereignty, and provide a sense of community. An examination of Métis history demonstrates their right to nationhood under this theory. Through exclusionary terminology, a unique language, and conditional acceptance, the Métis identity remains separate from that of others. Military and political actions throughout their history demonstrate their constant quest for sovereignty. Finally, a set of inherited and invented cultural traditions brings the Métis together as a community. It is clear that under Anderson’s theory, the unity of the Métis throughout their turbulent past qualifies them as a distinct nation.
The Shifting Phases of a Commodity: Textiles and Ethnic Tourism on a Lake Titicaca Island
Authors: Escobar López Daniel
Published: December 2022

The case study of the island of Taquile in the Peruvian part of Lake Titicaca will be used to explore how textiles functions as intermediaries for social interactions and change and how they respond to demands from ethnic tourism. By using theories of material culture, specifically the analytical approach of "the biography", I aim to shed light on the process by which some textiles in Taquile have passed from being the person’s “second skin” to a commodity responding to ethnic tourism. However, such a process, rather than being contradictory, expresses the capacity of Taquilean culture to adapt the local values to a monetary economy. Taquilean culture is also an agent in these encounters with tourism, impeding the complete commoditization of the textiles.
Mass Graves and the Politics of Reconciliation: Construction of Memorial Sites after the Srebrenica Massacre
Authors: Kontsevaia Diana
Published: December 2022

Burial is an integral part of reconciling with death. In this way, mortuary practices are made for the living; and the manner of death and burials continue to affect the politics of the living. Especially after collective traumatic events such as the Srebrenica massacre, reburials become central to the reconciliation process of the surviving communities. The process of reburial, however, also facilitates the claims that a particular territory is part of a specific, ethnic ‘homeland’. As reburials aim to forget the atrocities, they also commemorate them. Although reburial is one of the few ways of moving on after the death of a loved one, it simultaneously claims territory for the communities whose dead are buried there, potentially reigniting tensions in the future. Reburial allows communal reconciliation, but only for the community of the victims. For the community of the perpetrators, such a reburial only serves as a humiliation and inhibits harmony. Attempting to reconcile post-conflict multi-ethnic communities is thus impossible without understanding the profound effects that the community of the dead continues to play in the lives of the living.
Interpreting Stable Carbon and Nitrogen Isotope Ratios in Archaeological Remains: An Overview of the Processes Influencing the δ13C and δ15N Values of Type I Collagen
Authors: Leatherdale Alexander
Published: December 2022

The application of isotopic ratio mass spectrometry to archaeological science has produced many important contributions to the study and understanding of ancient human and animal populations. Paleodietary reconstruction through the analysis of stable isotope ratios in skeletal, dental, and soft tissue remains presents another avenue for interpreting the past. The methodology employed to obtain isotopic data from archaeological remains directly influences the types of questions that can be addressed and the interpretation of the data. Furthermore, there are fundamental idiosyncrasies of archaeological specimens and their ante- and post-mortem environments that may influence the results of an isotopic study. This paper explores the ways in which the stable isotopic signatures of carbon and nitrogen in type I collagen in archaeological bones and teeth are formed, modified, or destroyed throughout life and in the post-depositional environment. For a comprehensive review of the methodological and interpretive implications of paleodietary reconstruction using stable isotopic analysis, see Ambrose (1993).
The Nêhiyawak Nation through Âcimowina: Experiencing Plains Cree Knowledge through Oral Narratives
Authors: Johnson Paulina
Published: December 2022

Nêhiyawîhcikêwin, Plains Cree Culture, is an oral culture that shares their wisdom, insights, teachings, and warnings through the voices of the elders to the generations that will one day fill their place. Oral narratives have been used by the Nehiyawak nation for hundreds and if not thousands of years, and for particular interest we will focus on âcimowina, oral narratives of a time after Wîsahêcâhk, Elder Brother, but also touch on aspects of âtayôhkêwina, sacred stories that account how the world was shaped, when animals and humans could talk, and when Wîsahêcâhk transformed the world. This paper begins with the importance of oral narratives to various Indigenous peoples around the world as it presents the cultural value and ontological foundations of this intellectual tradition and Indigenous methodology. From there I will discuss Nêhiyawak âcimowina that gives insight into a living past and not a written history, as I present primary sources found in Winona Wheeler’s ‘Cree Intellectual Traditions in History,’ and Neal McLeod’s Cree Narrative Memory: From Treaties to Contemporary Times. As a Plains Cree woman myself, I aim to explore how in depth the cultural protocols of Cree âcimowina are and how oral narratives offer lessons and teachings from a Plains Cree perspective, and I thank Winona Wheeler and Neal McLeod for taking the time to learn and share there insights, and the numerous elders and ancestors that guided, talked, and walked with them as they put forward these pieces. Though I am unable to present every facet of acîmowina, this paper aims to reveal a world outside our conceived realities through Western education and dominant discourse, as we witness the Plains Cree world through Plains Cree voices.
A Feeling in their Bones: Issues of Deciphering Animal Ritual in the Archaeological Record among the Naskapi Innu and Eastern Cree
Authors: Johns Arwen
Published: December 2022

Whether religion and ritual are elements of past cultures that can be studied effectively by archaeologists has divided experts for some time within the discipline. This paper examines specific animal rituals from two mobile hunter gatherer groups from Canada’s North, the Naskapi Innu and Eastern Cree, in relation to Colin Renfrew’s 1985 book The Archaeology of Cult. In this paper I seek to demonstrate that the archaeological concepts and methods put forth in Renfrew’s (1985) work, related to analyzing religious and ritual contexts in large scale sedentary societies, cannot be neatly applied to Northern mobile hunter gatherer groups because of the nature of their movements across the landscape and their unique ritual relationships with animals. By going into detail describing, and subsequently analyzing the practical implications of the animal rituals and beliefs held by the Naskapi Innu and Eastern Cree, it is my goal to call more attention to the archaeological study of small scale mobile societies and their ritual practices that defy conventional methodologies for discerning and analyzing ritual in the archaeological record.
Velázquez y Cervantes en el sistema de Ortega: la asimilación de dos autores modernos en una filosofía "nada moderna"
Authors: Gutiérrez Simón Rodolfo
Published: December 2022

El presente artículo trata de mostrar que la filosofía de Ortega contiene elementos modernos más allá de lo que el propio autor declaraba. Así, frente a la Modernidad de cuño matematizante iniciada por Descartes, el filósofo español asimiló ideas propias de otra Modernidad encabezada por Velázquez y Cervantes. Así, la investigación mostrará, en primer lugar, la crítica de Ortega a la filosofía cartesiana; después, la interpretación orteguiana de la pintura velazquina y qué aspectos filosóficos de ésta asimila; y, finalmente, cómo los planteamientos pictóricos del autor de Las Meninas son coherentes, desde el punto de vista de Ortega, con las propuestas de Cervantes en el Quijote. De esta manera, quedará probado que Ortega y Gasset es impreciso al calificarse como “nada moderno”, en la medida en que sólo es una variante del pensamiento moderno la que niega, adoptando en su filosofía ideas extraídas de sus interpretaciones del pensamiento y el arte españoles del Siglo de Oro español.
«Primo in numero, secundo in magnitudine». El concepto de Mathesis communis en la obra inédita de Benet Perera
Authors: Blanco Rodríguez Fidel
Published: December 2022

El concepto cartesiano de una mathesis universalis tiene como antecedente histórico inmediato algunas de las ideas defendidas en el contexto de las discusiones del aristotelismo renacentista acerca de la certeza matemática y el puesto de las matemáticas en la clasificación de las ciencias. Una de las figuras principales en este debate es la del jesuita valenciano Benet Perera (1535 – 1610). A través de la presentación de una serie de pasajes extraídos de los manuscritos inéditos de Perera, en este artículo analizamos la defensa que este autor realiza de la existencia de una ciencia matemática común, en relación con algunas de sus ideas fundamentales, como la impugnación del carácter científico de las matemáticas, o la división de la metafísica en una filosofía primera dedicada al ente en cuanto ente y una teología natural que estudia las inteligencias y Dios.

Etkin Özne'den Edilgen Olana: H. Lefebvre ve J. Baudrillard’ın Gündelik Hayat'a Pratik Katkıları
Authors: TOPRAK Murat
Published: December 2022

Gündelik hayat, sosyolojinin alt dallarından biri olmaya başladığından bu yana farklı isimlerin ilgi odağı haline gelmiştir. İlk dönem sosyolojinin ıskaladığı gündelik hayat, 1950’lerden sonra bireyin toplumsal araştırmalarda özne olarak önem kazanmasıyla birlikte özellikle mikro sosyoloji alanında popüler olmaya başlamıştır. Gündelik hayatla beraber yakın dönem sosyoloji, ilk dönem sosyolojinin artık sadece yapı/toplum odaklı kesin yargılarını reddederek yanına -kaymalar olmasına karşın- bireyi/faili de eklemiştir. İlk dönem sosyolojinin aksine özellikle Henri Lefebvre ile başlayan gündelik hayat tartışmaları, günümüzün sosyal koşullarına paralel olarak farklı yaklaşımlara düşünsel kaynak oluşturmuştur. Bu yaklaşıma sahip olan isimlerden biri de Jean Baudrillard’tır. Her ikisi de farklı perspektiflerden gündelik hayata bireysel ve toplumsal katkılar sunmuştur. Lefebvre, Marxist perspektifle ele aldığı gündelik hayat düşünceleriyle Baudrillard’a kaynaklık etmiştir. Bu çalışma, Lefebvre ve onun öğrencisi olarak bilinen Baudrillard’ın gündelik hayata yönelik katkılarını karşılaştırmalı olarak tahlil etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Lefebvre gündelik hayat analizinde bireye özne özelliği atfederken, Baudrillard ise postmodern dönemle beraber anlamsal göstergelerin akışkan bir hale geldiğini ve bireyin gündelik hayat ilişkilerinde bu akışkanlığın olduğunu iddia etmektedir. Dolayısıyla Lefebvre’de birey, gündelik hayatında zorunlu da olsa bir uyum sağlarken Baudrillard’da bu durum kendiliğinden gelişen bilinçsiz özne şeklinde tezahür etmektedir. Bu çalışmada Lefebvre ve Baudrillard üzerinden gündelik hayat tartışmaları yapılacak ve onların benzer ve farklı yönleri irdelenecektir.
Bank Diversification, Performance and Cash Holdings: Evidence from Pakistan
Authors: Kamran Muhammad Rizwan , Shoaib Touqir , Mumtaz Raheel , Choudhary Adnan Ali
Published: December 2022

The current study explores the moderating impact of cash holdings on the relationship between bank diversification and bank performance. For doing this, the data for the period of 2009 to 2019 for 18 banking firms are gathered from annual reports and the business recorder websites. Return on assets, profit ratio, Tobin q, and cost to income ratio are utilized as dependent, income diversity is taken as independent, cash positions, and cash conversion cycle, and liquidity are used as moderating while bank size, capital ratio, loan loss provision ratio, and loan ratio are used as control variables. Regression analysis is applied to analyze the impact of cash holdings on the bank diversification and performance link. The findings of the study show that income diversification, cash positions, cash conversion cycle, and liquidity have a positive impact on the bank's performance (measured by return on assets, profit ratio, and cost-to-income ratio). Income diversification has a non-significant impact on Tobin Q while cash positions, cash conversion cycle, and liquidity have a significant positive impact on Tobin Q. Moreover, all measures of cash holdings (cash positions, cash conversion cycle, and liquidity) moderate the relation between bank diversification and performance as the coefficients of income diversity become more significant with the inclusion of moderating force. The findings suggest increasing income diversity in banks in order to improve bank performance. The study also recommends considering cash holdings as a strengthening force in the relationship between bank diversification and performance.
Rumble: Uma música boa para brigar (e para pensar)

Published: December 2022

A partir do inusitado - e rico em significados - episódio de censura musical ocorrido no cenário da música popular estadunidense, este artigo busca refletir sobre os condicionantes internalistas e externalistas que operaram nesse processo. Considerada como divisora de águas no cenário do rock, Rumble foi uma obra arquetípica no que se refere à construção da significação simbólica. Valendo-se de ferramentas conceituais musicológicas e antropológicas, aventamos possibilidades de resposta para a questão: por que um tema instrumental conseguiu operar tal significativa reatividade musical e social? As reflexões aqui apresentadas levam em consideração as funções da música nas sociedades, os aspectos estruturais da música, bem como as representações e significados simbólicos desse fenômeno.
The impact of group singing on students' psycho-emotional state
Authors: Zhang Yuanshuo
Published: December 2022

The research aims to study the influence of group singing on students' general well-being, as well as their psychological and emotional state. The study involved 180 students between the ages of 18 and 20. Group 1 consisted of students, who have never practiced vocal. Group 2 consisted of students, who have been practicing group singing regularly. Group 2 had a more favorable psycho-emotional state with significantly lower levels of depression, anxiety, stress, neuroticism, emotional detachment. After three months of group vocal training, the 1st group students had a 1.45-fold decrease in depression (p<0.05) compared to the initial level, anxiety - 1.46 times (p<0.05), stress - 1.33 times (p<0.05), neuroticism - 1.42 times (p<0.05), emotional detachment - 1.50 times (p<0.05). Thus, group singing helps to improve the general and psycho-emotional state of students.

Experiências acústicas na paisagem sonora escolar rural
Authors: Oliveira Elder Santos , Corrêa Henning Paula
Published: December 2022

Os estudos sobre paisagem sonora vêm sendo discutidos em diferentes áreas do conhecimento, o que oportuniza os múltiplos olhares para o tema. O ambiente escolar rural foi o espaço para a produção de dados da pesquisa que ora se apresenta nesse artigo. Nesse estudo, aproxima-se a conhecida prática estética soundwalking às leituras de Jorge Larrosa sobre experiência, apontando como esta prática estética se volta às realidades acústicas de uma escola rural do município de Rio Grande/RS. Considera-se tal prática como uma alternativa de fruição musical frente aos modelos de ensino da música conservatorial e/ou historicamente fixados na forma de ouvir e fazer música. Faz-se com que este novo contexto escolar rural, silenciado e aparentemente imobilizado pela pandemia de Covid-19, seja entendido como um corpo vibrante, tensionado, revelador de um silêncio potente de sonoridades a serem vivenciadas. A partir de práticas artísticas nos entornos de uma escola rural de ensino fundamental, expõem-se como se deu a experiência acústica e os processos que lá foram estabelecidos, de forma a sublinhar a singularidade dessa experiência e das relações estabelecidas com o referido espaço.

Published: December 2022

Este texto tem o objetivo de discutir a perspectiva enativa como uma possibilidade de fundamentação para práticas na educação musical, considerando que tal perspectiva permite uma visão ativa do ensino e aprendizagem de música. A partir da busca de uma definição conceitual e de situar o enativismo em distintas bibliografias, o presente texto caracteriza a cognição musical incorporada, apresenta diálogos com a literatura e reflete sobre implicações de uma perspectiva enativa para o ensino e aprendizagem de música, enfatizando sua relação com o caráter ativo de todo o fazer musical. O artigo também discute a inseparabilidade entre conteúdos musicais e extramusicais, incluindo a importância das experiências das pessoas e suas contextualizações com seus mundos socioculturais. Por fim, o texto apresenta a relação entre a práxis e o enativismo, bem como a aplicação do enativismo como fundamentação para diferentes práticas na educação musical. As análises realizadas neste texto podem auxiliar educadores musicais na ampliação e aprofundamento de fundamentações e reflexões sobre o ensino e a aprendizagem na educação musical a partir da perspectiva enativa.

The research took place from January to June during the 2020-2021 academic year. The sample involved 183 students from three educational institutions in the People's Republic of China. A preliminary assessment found that the academic performance of students was low. Before the implementation of the proposed assessment methods, an average score was 20.63 points interpreted by the scholars as Do not Meet Academic Expectations. After the introduction of the assessment methods, the post-implementation scores of the academic performance increased by 41.3%. The findings were interpreted as a Satisfactory level of academic performance. The paired t-test revealed significant differences in student performance learning the French horn before and after the introduction of the new assessment methods. The average difference was 3.57 points. Thus, the proposed assessment methods for the French horn playing include (1) playing by ear, (2) Instrumental Scheme Processing, (3) a range practice, and (4) an introductory exam. The research demonstrates that the proposed assessment methods can be used as a part of the standard assessment developed for teachers that include different elements of effective teaching tools and methods.

Authors: Guo Linlin
Published: December 2022

Throughout history, social and economic events had a great impact on the development of culture and music as a part of it. As soon as different events have forced a cultural shift, the historical changes are considered important for music analysis. The research examines the court music of China, Japan and Korea in the 16th-17th centuries. Special attention is paid to the main characteristics, similarities and differences of music in these states. Moreover, a comparative analysis of court music in different countries was made. The purpose was to investigate the stages of the court music development, explored the historical and social events that influenced the shift in musical genres, and identified similarities and differences between musical art in different countries. The research discusses the contact between Chinese, Korean, Japanese and European cultures and its impact on the development of court music. Moreover, the research identifies similar and different characteristics found in classical musical genres such as nanxi drama (theatre) common in China, fairy tale singing popular in Japan, and ceremonial music performed in Korea. In the Far East countries, court music had features of both ceremonial and epic music associated with great orchestras with a wide variety of instruments. The musical instruments had many common features. The materials used to make the instruments and the production cycles were similar. Many instruments had analogues in other countries. The Chinese guzheng had many similar features with Japanese koto and Korean kayagum; pipa (China) is similar to biwa (Japan). Many instruments migrated from one country to another. The shakuhachi musical instrument moved from China to Japan and became very popular in this country. The music instrument was created in about 20 shapes and sizes to make distinctive sounds. Further research should consider other aspects that influenced the development of cultural values and court music in China, Japan and Korea. It is important to analyse other cultural changes and trends to understand the societal transformations, values and characteristics of the Far East countries.
Gamificación y percusión corporal
Authors: Bravo Fuentes Paloma
Published: December 2022

En las pedagogías musicales, se aboga por el uso del cuerpo como instrumento musical ya que, al ser innato en el humano, es ideal como acercamiento a la práctica instrumental. La percusión corporal está dedicada a ello e incorporarla en la etapa de Educación Primaria, aporta numerosos beneficios al alumnado. Pero, como toda práctica instrumental, los alumnos/as no deben realizar su aprendizaje de forma autónoma. Así, este estudio propone una aplicación informática capaz de ayudar a los estudiantes en la práctica de la percusión corporal, fuera del ámbito docente. Todo desde el potencial de una metodología activa mediante el uso de la gamificación, en la que el componente lúdico es clave para incrementar la motivación. La unión TIC, gamificación y percusión corporal se convierte en un trinomio sustancial para mejorar este proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje.
Chinese Piano Music: the Role of Composer Chu Wanghua in the Evolution of Modern Piano Traditions in China (the Case of the ‘Sounds of the Temple’ Capriccio Suite)
Authors: Liu Yinan
Published: December 2022

Chinese piano music is based on folk songs, Chinese poetry, and the ethnic style, which contribute to the expressiveness of the sound and refinement of the intonation and tonal system. The paper addresses the Chinese piano music and the role of composer Chu Wanghua in shaping contemporary piano traditions, using the ‘Sounds of the Temple’ capriccio suite as an example. Based on the direct method of standardization, the paper determined the significance of the parts of the ‘Sounds of the Temple’ suite. The second part (0.93) is most significant for displaying the piano music, because it involves the use of polyphonic sounds, imitating other instruments. The first part of the suite (0.87) is based on a linear representation of sounds, imitating the sounds of bells. The third part (0.69) centers around the use of slow tempo as well as major tone deviations. Significant elements of the suite (mirror reprise, rhythmic transformation, monotonous repetition of phrases and sounds, application of guó huà techniques, texture elements) were determined on the basis of the measured complexity and harmony of performance, as well as their influence on national traditions. A comparison of performance using standard deviation suggested that the differences were based on monotonous repetition of phrases and sounds (1.07), which is attributed to a greater emphasis on the difficulty of performance than on other parameters. The paper’s practical implications involve the possibility of preserving expressiveness and ethnic elements while playing the piano, based on Chu Wanghua’s ‘Sounds of the Temple’ suite. Further studies might compare the elements that contribute to the expressiveness of performance in the ‘Sounds of the Temple’ suite by Chu Wanghua and ‘Flower Drum’ by Qu Wei.

Published: December 2022

The paper primarily analyzes aspects of college and university piano instruction based on cross-cultural music education. The paper established the elements that are most important for students to learn. 32 percent of students believe that implementing best practices would make a significant difference in the learning effectiveness. The survey revealed that only 5% of students have more than one month of full-time online learning experience. The findings suggested that 29% of the respondents developed creative thinking skills, and 26% of the respondents gained technical knowledge that contributed to strong improvisation skills. Data on productivity revealed that six out of eight study groups achieved a high level, and only group 3 (college) scored 19.6%, which is due to the lack of good grades among most students.
