| Description: |
International audience ; As part of my doctoral thesis in musicology, conducted in partnership with the PRISM laboratory, we designed an experimental audiovisual recording system with the scientific objective of measuring the role of complicity in the effectiveness of choral conducting. Indeed, the conductor's approach to bringing a choir to life constitutes a situation of mutual influence, where the conductor's physical gestures help to model the sound produced by the choir. This is a conductor/choir/sound triangulation within a continuous feedback loop where non-verbal communication is multimodal. This communication, so specific to choral practice, is the culmination of collective processes. It develops over the course of rehearsals through negotiations and adjustments, where conventions are established between participants (Ravet, 2015). The conductor can refine their gestures according to the response they elicit, transforming the act of making gestures into a mechanism of stimulation.Documentary sources on choral practice are concentrated in three main areas: the musical discipline (Guengard, 2013), practice over time (Lurton, 2020), and the network of interactions (Durrant, 2009). Within this last area of inquiry, the question of the roles and stakes of communication has motivated numerous studies, contributing to a dedicated body of literature (Kumar, Morisson, 2016). In this context, we hypothesize that the meaning of a gesture stems from the collective construction of conventions, with conductor and choir sharing a repertoire of gestures that allows choristers to better understand the physical manifestations of the conductor's musical intentions. Does a choir, then, respond better to the requests of a conductor whose physical cues it understands? To test our hypotheses, we designed an experimental audiovisual recording protocol involving an experienced choir with its principal conductor and three conductors with varying levels of rapport. We paired the Toulon Provence Méditerranée Opera Chorus with four ... |
