Abstract

In this article we present our ongoing work on expressive performance analysis for violin and string ensembles, in terms of synchronization in intonation, timing, dynamics and articulation. Our current research objectives are outlined, along with an overview for the methods used to achieve them; finally, focusing on the case of intonation synchronization in violin duets, some preliminary results and conclusions based on experimental recordings are discussed.
