Abstract

Music performance is an intensive sensorimotor task that involves the generation of mental representations of musical information that are actively accessed, maintained, and manipulated according to the demands of the performance. Internal representations and external information interact through feedback and feedforward processes that adjust the musician’s motor behavior to optimize a musical performance. This study aimed to examine the relationship between altered sensory feedback and performance errors. Seventeen experienced pianists aged between 33 and 54 years performed Hanon Exercise N°1 from memory under four different conditions: (1) normal (normal sensory feedback); (2) closed fallboard (altered haptic and auditory feedback); (3) blindfolded (altered visual feedback); and (4) combined (blindfolded and closed fallboard; altered haptic, auditory, and visual feedback). Performance errors were quantified based on a video analysis of the performances. Results indicated that compared with normal performance, participants made significantly more note errors in the blindfolded condition and more bar-adding errors per trial in the closed fallboard condition. The comparison between the normal condition and the three altered sensory feedback conditions revealed the impact of altering sensory feedback in musical performance. These findings are discussed in the context of music learning.

改变感官反馈对钢琴演奏错误的影响：探索性研究

音乐表演是一项密集的感官运动任务，涉及到音乐信息的心理表征的生成，这些表征会根据表演的需要被主动访问、维护和操作。内部表征和外部信息通过反馈和前馈过程相互作用，调整音乐家的运动行为，以优化音乐表演。本研究旨在探讨感觉反馈改变与演奏失误之间的关系。17 名年龄在 33 至 54 岁之间的资深钢琴家在四种不同条件下凭记忆演奏了哈农练习曲 N°1：(1) 正常（正常感觉反馈）；(2) 封闭落板（改变触觉和听觉反馈）；(3) 蒙眼（改变视觉反馈）；(4) 组合（蒙眼和封闭落板；改变触觉、听觉和视觉反馈）。根据对表演的视频分析，对表演误差进行了量化。结果表明，与正常表现相比，蒙眼条件下参与者的音符错误明显增多，而在封闭式落板条件下，每次试验的条形添加错误也明显增多。正常状态与三种改变感觉反馈状态之间的比较揭示了改变感觉反馈对音乐表演的影响。这些研究结果将在音乐学习的背景下进行讨论。

期刊介绍： Research Studies in Music Education is an internationally peer-reviewed journal that promotes the dissemination and discussion of high quality research in music and music education. The journal encourages the interrogation and development of a range of research methodologies and their application to diverse topics in music education theory and practice. The journal covers a wide range of topics across all areas of music education, and a separate "Perspectives in Music Education Research" section provides a forum for researchers to discuss topics of special interest and to debate key issues in the profession.
