Application Research Of Preparatory Beat In Music Piece

Conducting is a truly mysterious art and job. You work alone but also with more than a hundred people. Most of the time, you turn your back to the people you are supposed to be entertaining.Conductors sometimes give a downbeat, and then wait for the orchestra to play, instead of going on. That will not do. When the orchestra members are playing one beat, you prepare what they are to do next—signalling to them the speed and manner of the next notes they are to play. You should not be conducting with them, but one beat ahead of them; they should be trying constantly to catch up with you.The orchestra needs to know—to see—what sort of energy they should use to begin a phrase. They need to be able to see where the peak of that phrase will be, and what sort of cadence they will have to provide at the end. To show them these images, always one beat ahead, you must have that image in your own ears one beat early. Through the study of conducting theory and rehearsal, I realize that preparatory beat is the most important work in conducting. Rather say conductor should "good at preparation" than "good at conducting". Conductor should hint any change of music through preparatory beat. The technique of preparatory beat has been analyzed and researched widely.Conducting definitely not only followed music and beating mechanically, it should be hint ahead of beginning, ending and any change of music by preparatory beat. This paper introduce various forms of preparatory beat through different kinds of score. Provide some solution for choir conductor to conduct and rehearsal music works which includes orchestra part.
