@article{2016,title={THE ROLE AND SIGNIFICANCE OF TIMING SKILLS IN MUSIC AND PERFORMANCE EDUCATION},abstractNode={One of the most important dimensions of music and performance training is the training of expression and interpretation. Performance timing is the conveyance of the timing, which is created by rhythm and beat, by the performer in framework of expression and interpretation. Performance timing includes many dimensions in context of interpretation and expression. For an effective performance between the performer and the listeners, it is not sufficient to express music, which is transferred by notes in musical writing, using correct notes in the correct time. There is need for a unique approach to expression and interpretation. Considering that the phenomenon of rhythm is essential in music, the rhythm and the stereotypes of rhythm (e.g. meter, beat) are conveyed by the performer as well as the notes in the process of performance using timing. In this context, the expression and interpretation, which are to be realized using performance timing in performance and performance training, should be done considering criteria that are in conformance with the aesthetic and rhythmic structure of the work. Thus, timing skills play a major role in performing. This study was intended to examine the place and importance of timing and expressional timing in performance and performance training. The study also includes a variety of opinions and suggestions about this subject.},author={Hepşen OKAN},year={2016},journal={The Journal of International Educational Sciences}}
