Biomekanik och ergonomi i samband med spel på nyckelharpa : en inledande studie
- 2012
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- 1974 publicerades boken The Teaching of Action in String Playing av Paul Rolland. Boken re- dovisade ett forskningsprojekt där man visade att rörelseträning, skapad för att befria ele- ven från överdriven spänning, på lång sikt kommer att resultera i snabbare inlärning och bättre utförande i frågan om att spela fiol. I bokens teorikapitel redovisas principerna för effektiva och avspända rörelser i samband med fiolspel. I det forskningsprojekt som utgör grunden för föreliggande uppsats, var avsikten att göra förberedande undersökningar för att så småningom kunna studera hur man kan överföra dessa principer till spel på nyckelhar- pa.En stor del av arbetet ägnades åt att utveckla en bra metod för att, medelst videofilmning, studera hur nyckelharpsspelare rör sig, samt att strukturera och klassificera de olika rörelser spelaren utför. Detta utvecklingsarbete resulterade i en plan över vilka rörelser som ska studeras och från vilka vinklar dessa ska filmas, samt konkret material, i form av listor och protokoll, som ska användas vid vidare studier. En liten del av tiden äg- nades också att åt att fundera hur modern videoteknik kan användas för att manipulera de färdiga filmerna, t.ex. med användandet av ultrarapid och grafiklager, i syfte att åskådlig- göra de rörelser som studeras.Ett urval av rörelserna i den fullständiga planen filmades och studerades se- dan. Dessa är instrumenthållning (som kan betraktas som en rörelse på så vis att den inne- bär ett balanserande av instrumentet), helkroppsrörelse i stående samt sittande position, samt start- och avslutningsrörelser. Fem stycken professionella spelare filmades och stude- rades. Deras rörelsemönster kunde sedan, i viss mån, jämföras med ett privat material med inte lika skickliga spelare. Generellt kunde en klar koppling ses mellan spelskicklighet och rörelsemönster, på så vis att de skickliga spelarnas rörelser i högre grad ansluter sig till de principer som redogörs för i Paul Rollands bok.En specialist på biomekanik konsulterades också, för att diskutera de olika spelarnas rörelsebeteenden. Denna konsultation resulterade i att författarens iakttagelser bekräftades och underbyggdes med konkreta fakta om människans rörelseapparat.

Spelets regler : En studie av ensembleundervisning i klass
- 2014

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The aim of this study is to explore criteria characterizing music teacher’s strategies when trying to adapt their teaching to individual students. The interaction of three music teachers with their students was explored in case studies in different parts of Sweden (a pre-study, and the main study consisting of two parallel studies). The research interest especially concerns teaching class ensemble addressing teenagers in the tuition provided under the curriculum of Swedish secondary and upper secondary school. This study adopts the perspective of cultural psychology according to which learning is understood as being relational, taking place in a cultural context, depending on available cultural resources and affected by it. Cultural tools are considered mediators of meaning and crucial for learning. Of special interest to the present study are the ways in which teachers distribute knowledge to their students.Many-sided data were collected in all case studies: series of lessons were observed and video-documented; preliminary results were followed up in semi-structured interviews with the teachers, respectively.The results show similarities in the use of general strategies; e.g. peer-teaching and -learning in the classroom and flexibility in using and developing cultural tools. Results also show three diverging practices; rehearsal-room practice, supervisor-practice and ensemble-leading-practice.The results are discussed from a societal perspective, in light of Swedish School history. Issues concerning the government of the School and equivalence are addressed. An unexpected result is that the concept “individually adapted ensemble teaching” may be understood very differently among music teachers actively involved in teachers’ education. The need for development of professional concepts is further underlined by the findings that teachers develop new cultural tools within different practices. This is discussed related to the framing of the central curricula.

Easy Duets vol. 1
- 2013
-
Konstnärligt arbete (swepub:mat_score_t) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Easy Duets Volume 1 contains five easy duets for any combination of 2 mallet instruments such as the vibraphone, xylophone or marimba. All five duets use a 3-octave range from F to F. The duets can be played on the same instruments however, it is preferable for part 1 to be played on vibraphone and for part 2 to be played on marimba. The duets can also be played as ensemble pieces. Double each parts depending on the number of players and instruments available. Pieces such as Crusin', Blues brotherS and Happy Shoes is very well suited with the addition of bass and/or drums (bass part can be found at the end of the booklet).

Easy Solos vol. 2
- 2014
-
Konstnärligt arbete (swepub:mat_score_t) (refereegranskat)abstract
- "In the early 1970s the legendary percussionist Mitchell Peters composed unforgettable works for the young marimba player such as Sea Reflections and Yellow after the Rain. Now Daniel Berg continues Peters pedagogical idea of a repertoire that is idiomatic while musically challenging for the young percussionist. This booklet contains five solo pieces with four mallets for vibraphone, xylophone or marimba. All works have the range F-F and can therefore be played on any mallet instrument." Easy Duets with duets for mallet instruments by Daniel Berg are previously published by Edition Svitzer. The books have been very well received among young students and teachers around the world.

Fantasia and Toccata : for solo marimba
- 2012
-
Konstnärligt arbete (swepub:mat_score_t) (refereegranskat)abstract
- As a young percussionist I played timpani with S:t. Matteus Symfoniorkester (SMSO) in Stockholm. During a production we played among others Gloria by Francis Poulenc, for choir and orchestra. The music, and above all the harmony, had a big impact on me. I was immediately inspired to study more music from Poulenc together with other French composers like Oliver Messiaen. Fantasia and Toccata is strongly inspired by the harmonies of both Poulenc and Messiaen which I have tried to adapt through the marimba.

Helios : for solo marimba
- 2013
-
Konstnärligt arbete (swepub:mat_score_t) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Helios was, according to Greek mythology, the sun god, but also the guardian of the seas and the god of gift of being able to see. Every morning he went across the sky with his golden chariot drawn by fiery stallions. When he reached the Hesperides (country of evening) in the west, he went back over Okeanos water by boat and the sunset was created. When I wrote Blue Memories a couple of years ago, I chose an enamel painting by Swedish artist, Bengt Berglund from late 60's as cover for the work. This painting I chose is part of a series of other enamel paintings by Berglund. For a few years now, I have been thinking of writing music for the remaining paintings in the series. Helios, Twilight Garden and Blue Memories are related to each other in terms of harmony, rhythm and character. The three pieces are written as standalone pieces, however the three pieces works well together as one substantial piece with several movements in it.

Impossible Etudes II : Even worse
- 2010
-
Konstnärligt arbete (swepub:mat_score_t) (refereegranskat)abstract
- 1. Dragonfly: • Focuses on the development of precise interval changes, primarily with the outer mallets. Interval ranges include M2 up to an octave, but the shifts move mostly in stepwise motion. 2. The Dark Side of Marimba Playing • Intended to practice long jumps and fast interval shifts in a smooth and controlled manner. • Inner voices maintain a roll on dissonant cluster chords while outer voices jump for single notes. • Uses octave intervals. 3. Marimba Etude for Octaves • RH plays double verticals in larger intervals (up to a 10th), while LH outlines the harmony with arpeggios. • Works on developing the interval switch from 6th to octave 4. Hochzeitsmarsch • Arranged to help develop one-handed rolls in both hands. • May also help develop fast, relaxed motion on double verticals and quick shifting around the instrument.

Stella Polaris : Five pieces for Vibraphone
- 2010
-
Konstnärligt arbete (swepub:mat_score_t) (refereegranskat)abstract
- This booklet is addressed primary to students who are beginning to learn the basic Vibraphone techniques. Each song focus on something that is characteristic for the vibraphone - e.g. dampening, pedaling. My wish is that these songs will create a continues interest for the Vibraphone and create a bridge to the other solo and chamber music literature for this instrument.Stella Polaris (also called the North or Pole Star), is the brightest star in the constellation Ursa Minor and located at a distance of approximately 430 light years from Earth. Polaris shows the north direction by its location only one degree from the north celestial pole.
