  1. Sofia Dahl THE STRIKING MOVEMENT: How do percussionists control timing and dynamic level when drumming? Sofia Dahl sof@imi.aau.dk

  2. Stick movements for accented and unaccented drumstrokes Sofia Dahl sof@imi.aau.dk

  3. Whole limb motion trajectory Dahl, 2004 Sofia Dahl sof@imi.aau.dk

  4. Producing force from acceleration Sofia Dahl sof@imi.aau.dk

  5. Dealing with the rebound • The rebound from the surface can be incorporated in, and be an aid for, the preparation for the nextcoming stroke. • Necessary in order to play some fast patterns (e.g. rolls) • Strategies like the “Moeller stroke” also utilizes the rebound • Accelerating the stick over a longer runway makes louder playing possible. • ...but if the next stroke is to be softly played the rebound may need to be controlled Sofia Dahl sof@imi.aau.dk

  6. Measuring movement and sound in drumming motion capture audio contact force muscle activity and duration Sofia Dahl sof@imi.aau.dk

  7. Motion capture data for a single mf stroke shoulder elbow wrist knuckle stick Sofia Dahl sof@imi.aau.dk

  8. Single, isolated stroke at mf Dahl et al, 2009 Sofia Dahl sof@imi.aau.dk

  9. How does controlling the rebound affect the sound? • Separated single mf strokes • allowed to ring out • “Normal” • play as normal, relaxed, stick free to rebound • “Controlled” • stop stick as close as possible to the drumhead directly after stroke Sofia Dahl sof@imi.aau.dk

  10. “Normal” and “Controlled” strokes normal controlled wrist knuckle stick Dahl & Altenmüller, 2008 Sofia Dahl sof@imi.aau.dk

  16. Musicians’ focal dystonia Defined as (painless) loss of voluntary motor control in highly trained movements (e.g. curling in/ over -extension of fingers). Neurological disorder Task-specific (Altenmüller, Hand Clin., 2003) Sofia Dahl sof@imi.aau.dk
