LA EAD
La herramienta de edición contemporánea es la estación de trabajo de audio digital (EAD), un software que almacena y organiza todos los componentes de un proyecto musical. Nos centraremos en las herramientas de edición, esenciales para la producción de música contemporánea, que todas las EAD proveen.

WEEK 5
Filtro y efectos de delay
El sonido grabado puede modificarse usando herramientas que efectúan cambios en la calidad real del sonido. Esta semana veremos la ecualización y el delay, y estudiaremos los diversos efectos de sonido que se derivan de estos dispositivos.

Curtis Institute of Music

Exploring Beethoven's Piano Sonatas (Coursera)

Our relationship to Beethoven is a deep and paradoxical one. For many musicians, he represents a kind of holy grail: His music has an intensity, rigor, and profundity which keep us in its thrall, and it is perhaps unequalled in the interpretive, technical, and even spiritual challenges it poses to performers. At the same time, Beethoven’s music is casually familiar to millions of people who do not attend concerts or consider themselves musically inclined. Two hundred years after his death, he is everywhere in the culture, yet still represents its summit. This course takes an inside-out look at the 32 piano sonatas from the point of view of a performer.
