Samenvatting:
The third International Symposium on Performance Science, ISPS 2011, explored the theme Models of Performance, ranging from models of good practice and performance (e.g. research into inspirational performers, teachers, or learners) to scientific models of performance processes and products. Hosted by the Faculty of Music at the University of Toronto, this volume reflects the breadth of performance science research presented at the event and provides a glimpse into the engaging discussion and debate that ensued. The 117 articles published here report original research on topics such as learning and teaching; creativity and performance evaluation; movement, communication, and embodied knowledge; and performers? health and wellbeing. They offer a wide range of empirical, theoretical, and artistic insights into a most multifaceted and ubiquitous endeavor: performing. We wish to acknowledge the input, support, and generosity of several individuals and organizations that have made ISPS 2011 possible. Firstly, we thank the many delegates who created lively discussion at the conference and the authors who contributed their work to this volume. We are also grateful to the University of Toronto, Royal College of Music, and members of the Scientific Committee for supporting this event from the outset. We are delighted to acknowledge the support of Canada?s Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC), as well as the following ISPS 2011 partner societies: the International Association for Dance Medicine and Science (IADMS), International Society for Music Education (ISME), Performing Arts Medicine Association (PAMA), and Society for Music Perception and Cognition (SMPC). Finally, we should like to thank the following people for their expertise and tireless work in bringing ISPS 2011 together: Doreen Ostrowski for her acute conference planning skills, Terry Clark, Rosie Burt-Perkins, Lisa Aufegger, and Eulalie Charland for their invaluable help in editing and revising the proceedings manuscript, and our conference assistants who skillfully navigated delegates through a tightly packed symposium schedule.
