Abstract:
|
This article provides insights into aspects of tempo and rhythmic elaboration in Hindustani
music, based on a study of a large corpus of recorded performances. Typical tempo
developments and stress patterns within a metrical cycle are computed, which we
refer to as tempo and rhythm patterns, respectively. Rhythm patterns are obtained
by aggregating spectral features over metrical cycles. They reflect percussion patterns
that are frequent in the corpus and enable a discussion of the relation between such
patterns and the underlying metrical framework, the tal. Tempo patterns, on the other
hand, are computed using reference beat annotations. They document the dynamic
development of tempo throughout a metrical cycle and reveal insights into the flexibility
of time in Hindustani music for the first time using quantitative methods on a large set of
performances. Focusing on aspects of tempo and rhythm, we demonstrate the value of a
computational methodology for the analysis of large music corpora by revealing the range
of tempi used in performances, intra-cycle tempo dynamics and percussion accents at
different positions of the tal cycle. |
