The Perception of Music
Author: Robert Frances
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 1317767543
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 390
Book Description
This translation of this classic text contains a balance of cultural and biological considerations. While arguing for the strong influence of exposure and of formal training on the way that music is perceived, Frances draws on the literature concerning the amusias to illustrate his points about the types of cognitive abstraction that are performed by the listener.

Pitch Harmonics, and the Perception of Consonance and Dissonance in Music
Author: John Hidalgo
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 9781312726468
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 101
Book Description
An investigation of the nature of musical sound and how we hear it. The study looks at the physics of consonance and dissonance in music and our perception of it, and analyzes examples from music literature in terms of their use of consonance and dissonance. Originally written and submitted as partial fulfillment of requirements for a Master of Arts in Music Composition from California State University, East Bay.

Tuning, Timbre, Spectrum, Scale
Author: William A. Sethares
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1447141776
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
Tuning, Timbre, Spectrum, Scale focuses on perceptions of consonance and dissonance, and how these are dependent on timbre. This also relates to musical scale: certain timbres sound more consonant in some scales than others. Sensory consonance and the ability to measure it have important implications for the design of audio devices and for musical theory and analysis. Applications include methods of adapting sounds for arbitrary scales, ways to specify scales for nonharmonic sounds, and techniques of sound manipulation based on maximizing (or minimizing) consonance. Special consideration is given here to a new method of adaptive tuning that can automatically adjust the tuning of a piece based its timbral character so as to minimize dissonance. Audio examples illustrating the ideas presented are provided on an accompanying CD. This unique analysis of sound and scale will be of interest to physicists and engineers working in acoustics, as well as to musicians and psychologists.

Perception of Musical Consonance and Dissonance: an Outcome of Neural Synchronization
Consonance and Dissonance in Music
Music Science
Author: Marcelo Sampaio de Alencar
Publisher:
ISBN: 9788770043403
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The book presents the fundamentals of music science, followed by a discussion on the historical evolution of music. An introduction to the analysis of signals in time and frequency is presented, which includes sound and noise. Features and mathematical aspects of the sound are discussed, including vibration and timbre. The book presents a review of existing voice models and discusses the voice production, sound perception, music characteristics and acoustics, tempo, rhythm and harmony. Musical theory is presented, including staff, notes, alterations, keys and intervals, tones and associated frequencies and wavelengths. The creation of major and minor scales is emphasized, along with a study on consonance and dissonance, measure, metric, tempo markings, dynamics, modulation. The book also explains the chord formation, and discusses melody and composition. The book has four appendices, including an appendix on the basic differentiation and integration theorems, another with useful Fourier tables, and an appendix featuring the notes, their frequencies and wavelengths. The book also has a glossary of music terms.
