| Research Abstract |
Purpose
The purpose of the present study is to investigate the following points: (1) under natural conditions, how doadults determine a unified key when singing in a group? (2) how do kindergarten children unify their singingkey? (3) is there any difference between the singing process of adults and children, and if so, what kind of difference?
Procedure
This study examined the process of a group singing using Micro mike (KAG C420).Multi-track Recorder(Yamaha MD8) and AtomS which is developed for the purpose of this study.We will begin by considering some hypotheses : 1) unified by majority, 2) unified to average key, 3) followingthe people who sing higher, 4) following the peoplewvho sing lower, 5) following the people who sing louder,6) following the people who start early, 7) following the social leader,8) following the musical leader. Pursuing these eight hypotheses, we can reveal a singing process within the group and define thedifferentiation between adults and younger children.
Results
Results of this study revealed the fact that both adults and kindergarten children can find their unified keyduring singing a song. This process is not affected by any kinds of voice, timing, and social/musical leadership. We can say with fair certainty that the following rule can be deduced: unify to average key.
