A Suggestion for a Dictionary of Conductor Terminology

Author(s): Tsvetelina Slavova
Subject(s): Music
Published by: Институт за изследване на изкуствата, Българска академия на науките

Summary/Abstract: Conductor terminology represents a subsystem of the general system of musical terminology. The current text presents an attempt at structuring a contemporary university dictionary of conductor terminology. Its lexical corpus includes both terminology used in the practice of conducting and terms which are explicitly or implicitly present in the process of teaching and learning conducting. The use of new specific concepts in the definitions is limited as much as possible because such concepts themselves need further defining which complicates the systemic function of the dictionary entry. This dictionary aims at systematizing terms and terminological phrases correlating them to corresponding terminology in the subsystem as well as encouraging learners to acquire skills of using professionally specialized conductor jargon.
