Abstract

Imitation in the teaching of music is a resource that comes from oral traditions, and that later western culture transformed with many variants through the canon or counterpoint among other musical forms. The BAPNE method has four ways of learning, where imitation is executed from another praxis very different from the classical one. The aim of this work is to provide, both theoretically and practically, another pedagogical model of imitation from the point of view of body percussion and neuromotricity. To this end, it will focus on other structures on a practical level called simple imitation, progressive imitation, inhibitory imitation, and divided imitation, with their verbal, kinaesthetic and mixed variants, which are a complete departure from classical learning models. These types of imitation are based on a model linked to motor skills for the development of cognitive function.

He gives courses and lectures on neuromotor skills and the BAPNE method aimed at teachers of Early Childhood, Primary, Secondary and Conservatories in conferences, congresses, universities and different teacher training centers.

Francisco Javier Romero-Naranjo, University of Alicante, Spain

Francisco Javier Romero-Naranjo holds a PhD from the Alexander von Humboldt University of Berlin (Germany), a Master of Arts in Ethnomusicology (Maryland - USA) and a Master in Clinical Neuropsychology. He has two six-year research periods and has supervised more than 240 Master's theses and several doctoral dissertations. He has been awarded the Culture Prize by the City of Alicante (Spain) as well as the national prize for Didactics of Music (Estival Cuenca Prize) awarded by the University of Castilla La Mancha. He has more than 200 scientific articles, 20 books and 3000 international academic citations.  In Web of Science he has more than 50 high impact articles as a researcher in Neuromotor (BAPNE Method). In 2022 he was awarded the title of Doctor Honoris Causa in Brazil by the Universidade Hebraica and the International Order of Chaplains for his contributions in Neuromotor. He has participated in more than 10 research projects that have generated important scientific publications of impact. His research is linked to two lines of work: (1) Neuromotricity and executive functions through the BAPNE method (2) Music and movement in different cultures through body percussion. His research has been published in Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), Sociedad Española de Musicología (SEDEM), Elsevier, etc. Research in Web of Science, Scopus and other impact search engines show him as the most prolific author on Neuromotricity and Body percussion at international level. He has been invited to give lectures and courses in USA, Japan, Venezuela, Italy, Paraguay, Mexico, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Norway, Denmark. He is an advisor in several countries and ministries, as well as trainer for the Choir and Orchestra System (Prince of Asturias Award) and academic consultant for this entity.
