摘要

视觉和听觉对于音乐表演的接受是至关重要的。观众会对无数的非语言线索做出反应来评价表演，但对于西方古典表演者如何吸引注意力和达到表演的精通程度却知之甚少。本研究旨在了解专业表演者如何概念化音乐厅中的视听奇观，以及他们如何将非语言交流和音乐外的线索运用到表演中。9位钢琴专家参加了半结构化的采访，内容涉及他们的演奏方法和他们为在国际场地举行的假想音乐会所做的准备。他们的回答被编码、分类，并最终聚集成三个主题。专家们敏锐地意识到观众的目光，并将古典表演视为戏剧。视觉对于和李斯特一样欣赏表演技巧的专业表演者来说是不可或缺的。专家们以戏剧性的舞台入场和优雅的音乐会服装为观众编排了表演，并通过令人印象深刻的记忆和放大的视觉手势精心制作了表演。未来的研究将探索专家如何将表演作为戏剧进行实践，并发现他们为舞台做准备的策略。

Performance as theater: Expert pianists’ awareness of sight and sound in the concert

Sight and sound are critical to the reception of music performance. Audiences respond to myriad nonverbal cues to appraise the performance, but little is known about Western classical performers’ approach to commanding attention and achieving performance mastery. This study aims to understand how expert performers conceptualize the audio and visual spectacle in the concert hall, and how they harness nonverbal communication and extramusical cues into performance. Nine expert pianists participated in semi-structured interviews about their approach to performance and their preparation for a hypothetical concert in an international venue. Their responses were coded, categorized, and eventually clustered into three themes. Experts were acutely aware of the audience’s gaze and viewed classical performances as theater. Sight was integral for expert performers who shared Liszt’s uncanny appreciation of showmanship. Experts choreographed performances for their audiences with dramatic stage entrance and elegant concert attire, and crafted performance through impressive memorization and amplified visual gestures. Future studies will explore how experts practice performance as theater and discover their strategies to prepare for the stage.

期刊介绍： Psychology of Music and SEMPRE provide an international forum for researchers working in the fields of psychology of music and music education, to encourage the exchange of ideas and to disseminate research findings. Psychology of Music publishes peer-reviewed papers directed at increasing the scientific understanding of any psychological aspect of music. These include studies on listening, performing, creating, memorising, analysing, describing, learning, and teaching, as well as applied social, developmental, attitudinal and therapeutic studies. Special emphasis is placed on studies carried out in naturalistic settings, especially those which address the interface between music psychology and music education.
