Baroque Performance
A research study on characteristic parameters of 18th century music
von Tilo Hähnel'Would you like the musician to disappear in the end?' the author was
asked frequently while dealing with the imitation of human-rendered
performances by computer models. Yet his only aim was to investigate the
relationship between notation and performed music being a highly
fascinating topic for both, musicians and listeners.
This book provides a synopsis of the matter of performance synthesis followed by an analysis on how 'historically informed' musicians actually play Georg Philipp Telemann. Finally even Telemann's music is rendered by a computer. The initial question about the end of the musician can be seen with a wink, of course, but nevertheless it contains a trace of concern. The author clearly does not want the musician to disappear. However, the question if listeners recognised that Telemann was played by a computer, will be revealed in the last part of the book.
