Kleppinger Lincoln, Nebraska August, 2011 COGNITIVE PROCESSES FOR INFERRING TONIC Steven J. Kaup, M. M. University of Nebraska, 2011 Advisor: Stanley V. Kleppinger Research concerning cognitive processes for tonic inference is diverse involving approaches from several different perspectives. Outwardly, the ability to infer tonic seems fundamentally simple; yet it cannot be attributed to any single cognitive process, but is multi-faceted, engaging complex elements of the brain. This study will examine past research concerning tonic inference in light of current findings.

  • Editorial: Embodiment in Music
    i Editorial: Embodiment in Music Editorial Andrea Schiavio1 & Nikki Moran2 1 Centre for Systematic Musicology, University of Graz, Austria 2 Reid School of Music, The University of Edinburgh, UK This special issue of the Journal of Interdisciplinary Music Studies (JIMS) focuses on the theme “Embodiment in Music”, reflecting the main topic of the latest Conference of Interdisciplinary Musicology held in Graz (CIM19). The present volume involves empirical and conceptual contributions exploring embodied music cognition from a variety of angles, combining selected papers presented at this conference with original submissions. The period of time since CIM19 took place has been marked by disruption. This is a period that has seen dramatic shifts in western consciousness towards globally impactful issues: the mass human crisis of forced migration and displacement; burgeoning awareness brought about through social justice campaigns; our climate- altered reality and the imminent, accelerating consequences. Our state of being under Covid-19 seems to have rendered existing disproportions of wealth, health and opportunity more apparent. What was previously subconscious, remote knowledge of prejudice and bias – aggressions concerning race, culture, gender, nature – seem now to have risen closer to the surface of daily life than perhaps at any previous point in living memory. As editors, we have taken particular care to respond to these issues as they pertain to academic research. We have been most grateful to all authors for their collaboration in decisions regarding stylistic language choices and the reduction of scientific bias. We are also grateful to the conference organizing committee in Graz, all authors, reviewers, and assistants who helped make this special issue possible.

  • Classical Net Review
    The Internet's Premier Classical Music Source BOOK REVIEW The Psychology of Music Diana Deutsch, editor Academic Press, Third Edition, 2013, pp xvii + 765 ISBN-10: 012381460X ISBN-13: 978-0123814609 The psychology of music was first explored in detail in modern times in a book of that name by Carl E. Seashore… Psychology Of Music was published in 1919. Dover's paperback edition of almost 450 pages (ISBN- 10: 0486218511; ISBN-13: 978-0486218519) is still in print from half a century later (1967) and remains a good starting point for those wishing to understand the relationship between our minds and music, chiefly as a series of physical processes. From the last quarter of the twentieth century onwards much research and many theories have changed the models we have of the mind when listening to or playing music. Changes in music itself, of course, have dictated that the nature of human interaction with it has grown. Unsurprisingly, books covering the subject have proliferated too. These range from examinations of how memory affects our experience of music through various forms of mental disabilities, therapies and deviations from "standard" auditory reception, to attempts to explain music appreciation psychologically. Donald Hodges' and David Conrad Sebald's Music in the Human Experience: An Introduction to Music Psychology (ISBN-10: 0415881862; ISBN-13: 978- 0415881869) makes a good introduction to the subject; while Aniruddh Patel's Music, Language, and the Brain (ISBN-10: 0199755302; ISBN-13: 978-0199755301) is a good (and now classic/reference) overview. Oliver Sacks' Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain (ISBN-10: 1400033535; ISBN-13: 978-1400033539) examines specific areas from a clinical perspective.

Music motifs in Six Dynasties texts Eleanor Laura Lipsey Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD 2018 Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures China & Inner Asia Section SOAS, University of London 1 Abstract This is a study of the music culture of the Six Dynasties era (220–589 CE), as represented in certain texts of the period, to uncover clues to the music culture that can be found in textual references to music. This study diverges from most scholarship on Six Dynasties music culture in four major ways. The first concerns the type of text examined: since the standard histories have been extensively researched, I work with other types of literature. The second is the casual and indirect nature of the references to music that I analyze: particularly when the focus of research is on ideas, most scholarship is directed at formal essays that explicitly address questions about the nature of music.

  • SMPC 2011 Attendees
    Society for Music Perception and Cognition August 11­14, 2011 Eastman School of Music of the University of Rochester Rochester, NY Welcome Dear SMPC 2011 attendees, It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the 2011 meeting of the Society for Music Perception and Cognition. It is a great honor for Eastman to host this important gathering of researchers and students, from all over North America and beyond. At Eastman, we take great pride in the importance that we accord to the research aspects of a musical education. We recognize that music perception/cognition is an increasingly important part of musical scholarship‐‐and it has become a priority for us, both at Eastman and at the University of Rochester as a whole. This is reflected, for example, in our stewardship of the ESM/UR/Cornell Music Cognition Symposium, in the development of several new courses devoted to aspects of music perception/cognition, in the allocation of space and resources for a music cognition lab, and in the research activities of numerous faculty and students. We are thrilled, also, that the new Eastman East Wing of the school was completed in time to serve as the SMPC 2011 conference site. We trust you will enjoy these exceptional facilities, and will take pleasure in the superb musical entertainment provided by Eastman students during your stay. Welcome to Rochester, welcome to Eastman, welcome to SMPC 2011‐‐we're delighted to have you here! Sincerely, Douglas Lowry Dean Eastman School of Music SMPC 2011 Program and abstracts, Page: 2 Acknowledgements Monetary
