This artistic research aims at studying the process of my interpretation and practice of the 72 Etudes Karnatiques pour piano by the French composer Jacques Charpentier (1933-2017) and at investigating the “mirroring” relation between musical intentionality and gesture of a piano performance.
I empirically analysed this process by using technology to understand how my artistic practice could influence changes in my interpretation of the piece (musical intentionality) and in my performance gesture.
In this way, this artistic research would contribute to the established interpretative tradition on contemporary music and open new perspectives on the methodological approaches for contemporary music performers engaged in artistic research.
