Três perspectivas gestuais para uma performance percussiva: técnica, interpretativa e expressiva

this article aims at providing a reflection towards the percussionist gestures during musical performance. in building a performance we propose to assist the transmission of a work's musical content according to three gestural acts: technical (only related to body motion); interpretative (related to intellectual exercises) and expressive (integration between body and intellect actions). the explanations and analyses of the gesture phenomena are illustrated with standard works of the percussion repertoire.
