Sažetak
In the Western classical tradition pianists memorize music scores for musical performances. Studies using a longitudinal case study method have shown that professional pianists rely on the formal structure of the piece of music when preparing for performance from memory. In this study, we examined the dimensions on which the practicing of the contemporary piece of music, the Fourth Study for Piano (Allegro Vivace) by Boris Papandopulo, relied. More precisely, we examined the relationships between the number of starts, repetitions, and stops during practice and the formal structure and technical demands of the piece. The pianist, a second year student at the music high school, had recorded her practice. The recorded practice sessions were transcribed and analyzed with regards to three learning periods: section-by-section, practicing the whole, polishing. The results showed that the pianist used structural bars as starting places more often while practicing section-by-section and practicing the whole. The correlation decreased through the learning periods as the practice progressed and playing became more fluent. Furthermore, the results showed that the pianist repeated the difficult bars more often in all three learning periods, and that the correlation decreased as the practice progressed. Starting with structural bars showed that the pianist relied on the hierarchical organization of the piece of music while practicing.
