"MUSIC comes 1st which consists of each tune's Melody, as well as Impromptu and Solo Improvisation with Ornamentation and Expression. Songs or pieces may be played on your own style, improvising and expressing your virtuosity and yourself as a Musician through the MUSIC on stage, entertaining (engaging) the audience with your talents, by upholding the Art and Science of Music. The ALPMC - CI is the musical institution where musicians learn how to Interact musically for performing spontaneously, and get professionally trained from the important 'bases' required for the ordinary musical job up to the highest futuristic skills, resulting in tomorrow's most challenging performers in many plucked string instruments; and that the Music is for the people whatever the personal taste and style. The ALPMC-CI is an international Collective for training in Performance and Composition (Occupational Music or Professional), and in the Folk music traditions and jazz, and to compose and publish Contemporary Music for the next generations, connecting the Music with Drama and Declamation (forms of Reciting/speech or musical lyrics: poetry and narrative prose - Musical Essay: descriptive prose with reliable sources), Music Learning Psychology and Music Aesthetics. And the 'One-Man Symphony' (I In VIII) with the Interactive Microtonal Metropolitan Band is for shure one of the biggest musical challenges in history. Our scope is all the Contemporary Music be it from Classical, Popular (European Folk music styles) or Jazz traditions."

For most musicians (if not the majority) the voice (vocals) does an equal job of a solo musical instrument but with words (i.e. the lyrics of the traditional song or popular jazz standard). On the other hand, solo musicians and instrumental duos/trios/quartets make music without words, and the 'scat' may work well as a legup (boost) to complement a good musician's job.

Viegas (his real name) is the Creator and Arranger of many European and Lusophone Hot Dances (arranged from tunes in the public domain), and the Composer of the Contemporary Solo Guitar (Modern style Classical Guitar and Jazz Guitar), Orchestral Concerts and Contemporary Guitar and Braguesa (requinta style) Recitals published and owned by ALPMC-CI, called 'Academius', 'Connections', 'The Contemporary', 'The Vanguardist' (separated by Movements and Opus), Waltz-Contemporary Lunduns, Contemporary Lunduns of many types and metrics, Fusion-Contradanzas, 'The Man-Symphony' I In VIII, Etc., following the composing techniques from the many musical scales, 'cascading' arpeggios and composition techniques he has developed himself: the '9-Note scale', '10-Note' scale, '11-Note' scale (only loosing 1 note to the chromatic scale!), the 'contemporary Hybrid scale', '12-Note contemporary scale' (a scale harmonized with 21 chords), the 14, 16 and 19-note contemporary scales and harmonies, microtonal 31, 62 and 101-note chromatic scales and the 12 chord-iluminures (or miniatures, consisting of 12 tone clusters and miniature size melodies), as well as a 64-note scale (to be used by 4ths) achieving the most exceptional contemporary cromatic scale that ever existed with 124 to 127 microtones and submicrotones by adding the intermediate 12,5c commas and a few 8,5 comma sounds (submicrotones) at the end to complete the 101 notes of the scale (without any note repetition after the 8va), and without 'breaking' the most important harmony and composition rules from both the Music of classical tradition and the styles of jazz and contemporary avant-garde or modernist and 'futurist' Music. Carlos Al "grace" (his pen name) has then idealized a 136-Note Chromatic Scale by adding the 6.25c, 18.75c, 31.25c and 43.75c submicrotones to his 101-Note Scale with 20 keys (from the 20-note contemporary diatonic scale). The most advanced, ultimate, futurist and vanguardist tonal and microtonal music composition approach created by Carlos Al 'grace' at the ALPMC - CI Lab was the 260 and 340-tone/microtone/submicrotone contemporary and chromatic scale and its associated microtonal harmonies, by adding the other submicrotones of 56.25, 68.75, 81.25 and 91.5, resulting in the fully completed 'Musical Corpus' of all tonality and atonality possible approaches, which is being prepared to be published soon this year of 2021. Carlos has also created 4 new musical styles or at least 4 solid variants of existed genres: the contemporary avant-garde lunduns and modinhas, fusion contradanzas and the Portuguese and Lusophone hot string dance style/fusion. The ALPMC - CI, based in Portugal, is committed to become the international Lusophone authority for Popular Music and Contemporary Performers (both amateurs and professionals), integrating the C.I. research centre for Membership (Associate or Full Member-Candidate), professional qualification training, interactive orchestras and ensembles, and 7 practitioner-type journals for all Members, Fellows and Honorary Members (pioneering tutorial methods of music instruction and psychological methods of musical learning, and advancing the music performance to the next level (for professional and graduate level training), as well as 7 scientific societies (16 to 17 practitioner-type journal editions each year) for a contemporary popular music joint fellowship (non stipend). We offer accredited training in popular music within a professional qualification system with unaccompanied jazz-style arranged solo pieces at Conservatory Grade 8 level and Beyond (i.e. Grade 8 level accredited continuing education and graduate level Specializations), with improvisation charts in 73 different musical styles and 29 specialties or concepts, for solo performance with the most advanced improvisation and technical skills required for each song, chosen from repertoire lists. The Academy does NOT provide ANY undergraduate degree programme in music, nor Unit Modules part of it, delivered by its distance tutorial methods and system, in collaboration with a university or polytechnic. The ALPMC-CI™ musical entity provides a 3-stage professional and continuing education programme (with officially recognised 'Credit Units' - UC's in Portugal; i.e., the so called CEU's internationally) for the 'academically and professionally (Performer) accredited' Qualification (only awarded to non-higher education diploma and non-degree holders) culminating with the Specialization graduate degree in Popular Music - Guitar (408 hours total) [eligible to up to 10 automatic ECTS graduate credits for the accreditation received in the specialization programme - transferable to a private or public university masters degree programme] (Diploma de Especialização em Música Popular) to Full Member-Candidates. This second-level 2-year Specialization Graduate Program for degree holders (Curso Superior Especializado de 2 anos ao nível de 2º ciclo para graduados/licenciados) is a qualification equivalent, according to the Portuguese legislation, to a Professional or Vocational-based Masters course portion in Popular Music (traditional of any country and jazz) - Guitar and Theory, with optional chordophones (or on a similar specialized music training field), for the vocational qualification of Specialist (not an academic degree per se) if accompanied by a 4-year Honours Bachelor Degree in Music or Music Education (Licenciatura de 4 anos, pré ou pós Bolonha) for an individual teacher's continuing education accreditation by a Teaching Council. For this official equivalency to take effect an individual accreditation from a professional body for teachers to obtain the career credits (UC's or CEU's for music or music education teachers) is required, and the ALPMC-CI Specialization degree course in Popular Music (the Diploma qualification) and its trainers (lecturers and researchers) are both accredited and highly qualified for the purpose. In Portugal the body it is the CCPFC, Braga. Our popular music programme awards automatic credit value for the continuing education unit credits (i.e., UCs) and ALPMC - CI Specialization in popular music (classical and jazz guitar, and viola braguesa) completed, which are convertible or eligible to 12 ECTS (academic graduate credits) in a masters degree programme. Continuing education unit credits can positively impact your career in several ways.

Eligibility of our Popular Music Program – Guitar (fingerstyle guitar for classical and popular music, and jazz guitar):

“Royal” Free Academy of PMC’s Interactive Conservatory is a widely respected two-year postgraduate course (DipALPMC-CI - Diploma of Continuing Education for CertALPMC-CI holders, and possibly, the PgALPMC-CI qualification awarded under the authority and competency of the ALPMC – CI™ National Council, exclusively to bachelors, eligible to Teaching Council individual submission for recognition as a Specialization degree to fully qualified teachers) in popular music – guitar (proof of program approval/authorization is available to members), available by rigorous distance and online methods of instruction for professional service musicians and soloists/concert players of traditional and contemporary modern repertoires. You can meet the ALPMC – CI board chairman, honorary members and fellows to guide you, give tutorial support and independent feedback during you postgraduate continuing education (tutorial support and recorded assessments by DVD).

In addition to popular and avangard contemporary music, experimentalism and musical abstractionism are also valued at the "Royal" Free Academy of Contemporary Music Performers - CI (ALPMC - CI), based in Portugal (with a RNOD National Charter to develop and publish resources and journal editions for Music Performers and Teachers). Full Members that complete the CertALPMC-CI or the DipALPMC-CI and a Professional Placement (extra curricula - for a paid musical job as a service musician or solo artist starting a professional career) may earn a Licence from the ALPMC-CI (a non-exclusive authorization to professionally use the Service Musician's Kit for any style of music or musical job situation) after completing 300 to 600 hours of verifiable CPD - an Occupational certification awarded under the authority of the ALPMC-CI National Council with official recognition for holders of the academically accredited course levels that culminate in the CertALPMC-CI vocational qualification. The occupational certification (i.e. licence) carries a privilege for musicians and music teachers, including CPD credits (Professional Development placement), which is the best 'leg-up' on the competition in terms of professional recognition. Only recognised organizations with validated or accredited educational programmes, which is our case, may issue a licence for a professional purpose. Degree holders, on the other hand, should go directly to the Specialization degree course-program (postgraduate continuing education, requiring a bachelor degree in music OR music education/teaching as the pre-requisite) to take a professional placement and gain the same advantages. We do Not award or issue any 'Diploma' for the Licence because an occupational credential do Not usually attract academic credits as it is not intended for this. However CPD points are gained from our scientific societies (full membership) for the Traineeship activities completed, and encouraged to complement the CertALPMC-CI qualification (an approved Certificate of Continuing Education hours, i.e. EQF Level 5+).

The "FREE ACADEMY OF PORTUGAL" (our Slogan) aims in becoming The Fellowship (A Irmandade) of the world's most talented and skilled music performers, music composers and teachers, and to advance Music for the next and future generations, thus promoting it with connected arts and science. Some connected art and science subjects should be articulated with Music in a multidisciplinary way. We have the most advanced Musical intellectual property such as compositions and methods of performing, designed and available to highly talented and skilled performers. Our Performer’s Licence (Occupational) [Kit of Performer] and Fellowship (Research) are obtainable by only those trained freelance professional musicians (prepared to any musical job situation - including those unprepared live performances) and solo concert level players, registered with us. We are an international academic and professional body and Not an examination body or teaching college/school/faculty. The Fellowship (FPMC) is a music certification of ACADEMIC Nature for Performers to complement the accredited Specialization in Popular Music - Guitar (and other chordophones) (postgraduate continuing education) or a Master degree in Music (any subject). The Academy may award only 1 Fellowship certification every 2 years for the higher complexity and instrumental technique that this post-masters award is expected to imply.

The 'Interactive Conservatory' denomination to the music institution's registered name means 'interactive art' which involves the direct participation of the audience in some way (e.g. musicians 'à la carte'), the 'espontaneous art music' (interacting with soloist or singer in the hard job of unprepared arrangements and solos, using professional skills, creativity and ear, and improvised solo music performances) [both of human-to-human interaction], and the use of 'electronic art' such as videos, recorded audio, laser or mechatronics, to help exploring the work (e.g. in tutorial support and the interative metropolitan band of music) [human-to-machine interaction].

We promote and explore the field of contemporary popular music performance in a Cycle of Musical Specialties for Jazz/Electric Guitar, Classic Guitar, Acoustic Guitar/Fado Viola, Cavaquinho (Braguinha of Madeira), Ukulele (Soprano and Concerto), Braguesa Viola (10-string guitar) (or another Portuguese Viola), Rajão of Madeira, Applied Music Theory, Traditional Percussion, Foot Percussion (Drumming) and Carlophone (Available Soon), from Folk Music to pre-30s Jazz, with members in Portugal and abroad. There are hundreds of Assessment Tests available (a total of 10 practical subjects in popular music performance and 10 practical subjects in sacred/baroque music performance, and applied music theory and sacred/classical music literacy/theory - in 3 Stages (the ALPMC-CI Levels). The C.I. provides the 1st officially approved distance tutorial and professional qualification system in the world with accredited music performance training levels (stages). The entity maintains internationally important e-library and digital archive collections of aproximately 1,750,000 music manuscript editions and audio recordings, and a mini library collection of over 1,500 books, e-books, journals and e-journals, from whose 99,8% are published by the ALPMC-CI. The Mini-Library at the Secretariat is classified with the Universal Decimal Classification (UDC). Our musical aim at C.I. is to incorporate advanced contemporary music performance concepts in folk and popular music.
The ALPMC-CI is a nationally chartered scientific academy that offers a rigorous vis-à-vis distance learning program and tutorial system (with face-to-face performance assessments) with psychology of learning evaluations for academic accredited professional certification for both amateur and professional musicians and/or private instrumental tutors. This entity (official organization) is specially addressed to citizens of Portuguese speaking countries, but also accepts other people for membership and/or an educational programme.

Important Notice - The ALPMC-CI specialization program in Popular Music - Guitar, is classified as tertiary education. This type of education and training at a non-degree level is sometimes referred to as further education or continuing education as distinct from higher education. Further education is the English term given to any education after secondary school (i.e., after completion of high school) that is not an undergraduate or postgraduate degree, but it is usually accredited Continuing Education to obtain professional-based credits (CEUs) with a qualification (a Professional Certificate or Diploma that may be an ‘exit’ qualification or not), eligible to academic credit conversion at some extent, for which units/modules or the whole program was accredited by national authorities (academic and/or professional). It is usually certified non-university postsecondary training for preparing the trainee to work in a specific job. However, the Academy awards a (post)Graduate level qualification in Popular Music – Guitar (initial: PgALPMC-CI), because the organization is academically authorized, and possess the required professional authority on the specific musical field for the Specialization. It is Not a masters degree but carries automatic postgraduate continuing education credits for the units/modules approved, eligible to 10 ECTS academic credits (at undergraduate level for the 'exit' vocational qualification, or for the Specialization degree in Popular Music - Guitar, with chordophone options (vocational postgraduate)) for the 2 guitar concentrations (40 hours x2 concentrations at each level/stage – classic or acoustic guitar & jazz or electric guitar) and the theory/composition components (28 hours x2 at each level/stage, arranging and composing for the 2 guitar concentrations) which may be used as part of master’s studies in music. 272 hours total for academic credit conversion are eligible and normally guaranteed, plus continuing education credits for the other qualification requirements.

"Educação e Formação Contínua certificada (acreditada) articula/vincula com o Quadro Europeu de Qualificações (QEQ) no âmbito da Aprendizagem ao longo da vida, sendo um interface nos vários níveis de formação entre a aprendizagem e o mercado de trabalho." (a citation from Carlos Alberto Viegas about the 'Continuing Vocational Education and Training (CVET), Europe')) - O diploma especializado (DipALPMC-CI) é um complemento útil ao curso superior ou para músicos ou compositores aspirantes que possuam apenas o ensino secundário; por outro lado, o certificado do grau de especialista (PgALPMC-CI, o qual inclui um projeto breve/brief paper com revisão da literatura/literature review) é destinado a licenciados de qualquer área com currículo musical e a bacharéis em música (performance, composição, ensino ou investigação).

The names of this musician’s Collective (i.e., ALPMC-CI™) are both registered under the name registration process that should be used for bands of music/orchestras (bandas de música/orquestras), according to the IGAC (Inspeção-Geral das Atividades Culturais, Ministério da Cultura) Regulations (Decree Law 143/2014, de 26 de setembro).

The ALPMC-CI National Council [ CN  - with general meeting every 3 or 5 years at the city of Porto] is based at the Secretariat (Centre) in Anadia, Aveiro, and holds 24 musical instruments of professional quality and miniatures, from whose 15 are a small collection of guitars and other chordophones (plucked string instruments, including an 8-string cigar box guitar; 2 carlophones: educational and 'grand concerto', 3 foot drums, etc). Our Founder and Board Chairman, Professor Carlos Alberto F. Viegas (or Carlos Al "grace"), is working very hard for the e-Library, Digital Archive and Mini-Library, located in the Secretariat and deposited and archived in the National Library of Portugal, to reach a Total of Aprox. 1,750,000 (in electronic format and a few in physical format) editions and items including: books, e-books, manuscripts, monographs, e-monographs, journals, e-journals, audio and video recordings, items for learning and musical practice, midi items and academic articles – from whose 99,8% are the Academy’s own editions and titles. The total of works, editions (of own copyright and the exclusive intellectual property rights of this official academy-band of music) and items will reach between 1,900,000 to nearly 2 MILLION in the next few years with the inclusion of all Compositions and Editions that are currently in development. This is one of the greatest legacies that Music has ever seen, not only in the very large number of works and items but also in the content and futurist scope of music compositions that have been idealised for the future generations of both musicians and the public in general. This level of work deserves a lot of public recognition.

There are nearly 60,000 Editions and Items produced, and the other aprox. 1,690,000 are 'instantly available' under request from our large repertoires.

The ALPMC-CI (Sigla RNOD) is the organization for the field of contemporary music performance that formed and administrates 7 distinct official bodies (proceedings of 7 scientific societies), for non-profit Research, Musical Training, Publishing and Performing.
We publish 14 practitioner-type journal editions each year (print and online) for our Members and Fellows of the Interative Conservatory, and for the National Library of Portugal.

ACADEMICS and highly regarded PROFESSIONAL MUSICIANS have agreed to provide feedback on a voluntary basis (like most journals of other organizations) for practitioner research papers that are produced for abstract publication in our 7 (Seven) Practitioner-type Music and Education through Music Journals. They will send a blind review for topics of submitted papers to our fellowship programme (advanced training/research). But before they are consulted the paper must pass the editor's musical orientation and editorial guidelines. Only high-quality practitioner-type papers of music performance analysis or music education evaluation will be passed to 1 member of this Editorial academical board, and, if the feedback is positive, the abstract publication will be considered in the appropriate official journal and the subsequent award of fellow by the 7 scientific societies of music journals (i.e. 7 practitioner-type journals with 16 ISSN and eISSN editions each year).

 

Our Rules for Article Revision:

Opinion and comment articles/commentary columns, editorials and reports and also practitioner music essays may be reviewed only by the editor. But if we receive the exceptional Fellowship Practitioner Essay the paper will be sent (this is subject to a previous editor's revision for quality control and to check viability and make minor amendments) to 1 member of the ALPMC-CI Review as a partial peer-revision of blind type. This is an approach to boost the credibility of practitioner articles/reviews up to the same status/level of academic peer-revision. Editorial review is an assessment of an article undertaken by a member of the editorial staff, which is the ALPMC-CI Review. On the other hand, for some sections of a journal, editorial reviews may be the only assessment taken of an article. We do not use the academic peer-revision just because it is not the scope of our practitioner music subjects and themes, and instrumental music topics.

Our Practitioner-type journals examine the proposals made and successful authors become fellows (recognized specialists) in PMC with the 7 scientific societies. A certification letter of Fellow mentioning the music specialty or topic researched and published will be awarded if the work is deemed to be of good merit as a contribution to musical practice.
