”Mitäs tänään soitetaan” : Bileohjelmiston osaamisen merkitys

Opinnäytetyössäni pohdin, mitä on bilemusiikki, missä bilemusiikkia soitetaan, miten nykyään bilemusiikkia esittävä muusikko toimii saadessaan työtehtävän. Miten hän hankkii tarvittavan materiaalin sekä miten digitalisoituminen on vaikuttanut materiaalin hankintaan. Pohdin myös miten ohjelmiston harjoitteluprosessi toimii yleisesti sekä erilaisissa tilanteissa, jotka ovat mahdollisia työelämässä. Miten erilaiset ajalliset haasteet muokkaavat tilannetta? Mitkä asiat on tärkeää huomioida ja mitä täytyy muistaa kun työtilanne tarjotaan? Lisäksi olen tutkinut kyselytutkimuksena, onko olemassa niin sanottuja bilemusiikin standardeja, jotka jokaisen muusikon olisi hyvä osata, mikäli hän työskentelee bilemusiikin parissa. Suoritin gallupin 26 henkilölle, jotka olivat joko ammattimuusikoita tai musiikin ammattiopiskelijoita. Lopputulokseksi kertyi 105 kappaleen listasta 52 kappaleen lista, joita erittäin suuri osa vastanneista osasi esittää välittömästi. Lopputulosta voivat hyödyntää niin musiikin opiskelijat kuin musiikin ammattilaiset oman bileohjelmistonsa laajentamisessa tai ohjelmiston valinnassa.My thesis investigates what party music is, where bands play this kind of music and what musicians have to do when they get a job offering. Other research questions include: How do musicians get all the necessary material and how has the digitalization affected the availability of the material. I also evaluate the efficacy of practicing methods when musicians learn new repertoire in real life situations and consider how different schedules change the methods and focusing points. I also determine what things must be taken into consideration and what aspects must be noticed when a job offer comes. I also studied if there are so called party music standards that every musician should know, if he or she works as a professional musician. I created a questionnaire that included 105 songs that I collected from my own repertoire and added some songs from old set lists from past gigs. 26 people filled in the questionnaire. The respondents were all professional musicians or students pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in music. As result, I found that 52 pieces of the total of 105 were such that most of the respondents could play instantly. This list of pieces could be used as a starting point for music students and as a source for musicians who work or will work as a freelance musician
