SUMMARY:

This study aims to systematize technical, performative, and organological knowledge related to orchestral percussion practice, culminating in the development of a reference manual intended for conductors, percussionists, and other professionals interested in the specificities of these instruments. The research is grounded in the recognition that a significant portion of the knowledge guiding symphonic percussion performance has historically been transmitted through oral tradition and remains only partially formalized within specialized literature. The study adopts a qualitative approach articulated through action-research procedures, focusing on the investigation of cognitive processes and interpretative practices that shape the percussionist’s role in orchestral contexts. It seeks to understand how performers respond to multiple technical, timbral, and contextual demands that are often not explicitly indicated in musical notation or pedagogical materials. The methodological framework is organized into two complementary dimensions. The first consists of a critical literature review encompassing methods, orchestration manuals, specialized dictionaries, and percussion pedagogical resources, examining their contributions and limitations regarding orchestral practice. The second dimension analyzes concepts derived from both scholarly production and the oral tradition of percussion pedagogy, including questionnaires administered to participating percussionists addressing performance practices, decision-making processes, and the mediation between musical notation and sonic realization. In parallel, spectrographic studies of performance techniques are conducted in order to document, systematize, and make accessible tacit knowledge inherent to percussion practice.
