As a hub of cultural activity, especially in the summer months, Montreal offers the ideal environment to bring together accomplished researchers from across the globe to discuss, discover, and examine the place and power of timbre in music. The Schulich School of Music is an international leader in professional music training and research, with critically acclaimed programs in classical performance, opera, jazz, early music, and contemporary music. The School is also a pioneer in the humanities, sound recording, and music technology, and is committed to studying musical language as part of a shared social and cultural fabric. An international conference dedicated to timbre enables a collaborative investigation of the distinct character of this intriguing musical element. To host such a gathering is our privilege. The Schulich School of Music is proud of the work Dr. Stephen McAdams has done in bringing together experts from the areas of music theory and analysis, ethnomusicology, psychology, technology, composition, and digital humanities. This event offers the opportunity for us to transcend disciplines as we explore the significance of timbre, and enhance awareness of its role in music composition, scholarship, science, and performance. My hope is that you all leave here having gained new insights, made new connections, and inspired to continue to shape the future of this important field of study.

  • Playing (With) Sound of the Animation of Digitized Sounds and Their Reenactment by Playful Scenarios in the Design of Interactive Audio Applications
    Playing (with) Sound Of the Animation of Digitized Sounds and their Reenactment by Playful Scenarios in the Design of Interactive Audio Applications Dissertation by Norbert Schnell Submitted for the degree of Doktor der Philosophie Supervised by Prof. Gerhard Eckel Prof. Rolf Inge Godøy Institute of Electronic Music and Acoustics University of Music and Performing Arts Graz, Austria October 2013 Abstract Investigating sound and interaction, this dissertation has its foundations in over a decade of practice in the design of interactive audio applications and the development of software tools supporting this design practice. The concerned applications are sound installations, digital in- struments, games, and simulations. However, the principal contribution of this dissertation lies in the conceptualization of fundamental aspects in sound and interactions design with recorded sound and music. The first part of the dissertation introduces two key concepts, animation and reenactment, that inform the design of interactive audio applications. While the concept of animation allows for laying out a comprehensive cultural background that draws on influences from philosophy, science, and technology, reenactment is investigated as a concept in interaction design based on recorded sound materials. Even if rarely applied in design or engineering – or in the creative work with sound – the no- tion of animation connects sound and interaction design to a larger context of artistic practices, audio and music technologies, engineering, and philosophy. Starting from Aristotle’s idea of the soul, the investigation of animation follows the parallel development of philosophical con- cepts (i.e. soul, mind, spirit, agency) and technical concepts (i.e. mechanics, automation, cybernetics) over many centuries.

  • Developing Sound Spatialization Tools for Musical Applications with Emphasis on Sweet Spot and Off-Center Perception
    Sweet [re]production: Developing sound spatialization tools for musical applications with emphasis on sweet spot and off-center perception Nils Peters Music Technology Area Department of Music Research Schulich School of Music McGill University Montreal, QC, Canada October 2010 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. c 2010 Nils Peters 2010/10/26 i Abstract This dissertation investigates spatial sound production and reproduction technology as a mediator between music creator and listener. Listening experiments investigate the per- ception of spatialized music as a function of the listening position in surround-sound loud- speaker setups. Over the last 50 years, many spatial sound rendering applications have been developed and proposed to artists. Unfortunately, the literature suggests that artists hardly exploit the possibilities offered by novel spatial sound technologies. Another typical drawback of many sound rendering techniques in the context of larger audiences is that most listeners perceive a degraded sound image: spatial sound reproduction is best at a particular listening position, also known as the sweet spot. Structured in three parts, this dissertation systematically investigates both problems with the objective of making spatial audio technology more applicable for artistic purposes and proposing technical solutions for spatial sound reproductions for larger audiences. The first part investigates the relationship between composers and spatial audio tech- nology through a survey on the compositional use of spatialization, seeking to understand how composers use spatialization, what spatial aspects are essential and what functionali- ties spatial audio systems should strive to include. The second part describes the development process of spatializaton tools for musical applications and presents a technical concept.

  • The Shaping of Time in Kaija Saariaho's Emilie
    THE SHAPING OF TIME IN KAIJA SAARIAHO’S ÉMILIE: A PERFORMER’S PERSPECTIVE Maria Mercedes Diaz Garcia A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS May 2020 Committee: Emily Freeman Brown, Advisor Brent E. Archer Graduate Faculty Representative Elaine J. Colprit Nora Engebretsen-Broman © 2020 Maria Mercedes Diaz Garcia All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Emily Freeman Brown, Advisor This document examines the ways in which Kaija Saariaho uses texture and timbre to shape time in her 2008 opera, Émilie. Building on ideas about musical time as described by Jonathan Kramer in his book The Time of Music: New Meanings, New Temporalities, New Listening Strategies (1988), such as moment time, linear time, and multiply-directed time, I identify and explain how Saariaho creates linearity and non-linearity in Émilie and address issues about timbral tension/release that are used both structurally and ornamentally. I present a conceptual framework reflecting on my performance choices that can be applied in a general approach to non-tonal music performance. This paper intends to be an aid for performers, in particular conductors, when approaching contemporary compositions where composers use the polarity between tension and release to create the perception of goal-oriented flow in the music. iv To Adeli Sarasola and Denise Zephier, with gratitude. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank the many individuals who supported me during my years at BGSU. First, thanks to Dr. Emily Freeman Brown for offering me so many invaluable opportunities to grow musically and for her detailed corrections of this dissertation.

  • The Perception of Melodic Consonance: an Acoustical And
    The perception of melodic consonance: an acoustical and neurophysiological explanation based on the overtone series Jared E. Anderson University of Pittsburgh Department of Mathematics Pittsburgh, PA, USA Abstract The melodic consonance of a sequence of tones is explained using the overtone series: the overtones form “flow lines” that link the tones melodically; the strength of these flow lines determines the melodic consonance. This hypothesis admits of psychoacoustical and neurophysiological interpretations that fit well with the place theory of pitch perception. The hypothesis is used to create a model for how the auditory system judges melodic consonance, which is used to algorithmically construct melodic sequences of tones. Keywords: auditory cortex, auditory system, algorithmic composition, automated com- position, consonance, dissonance, harmonics, Helmholtz, melodic consonance, melody, musical acoustics, neuroacoustics, neurophysiology, overtones, pitch perception, psy- choacoustics, tonotopy. 1. Introduction Consonance and dissonance are a basic aspect of the perception of tones, commonly de- scribed by words such as ‘pleasant/unpleasant’, ‘smooth/rough’, ‘euphonious/cacophonous’, or ‘stable/unstable’. This is just as for other aspects of the perception of tones: pitch is described by ‘high/low’; timbre by ‘brassy/reedy/percussive/etc.’; loudness by ‘loud/soft’. But consonance is a trickier concept than pitch, timbre, or loudness for three reasons: First, the single term consonance has been used to refer to different perceptions. The usual convention for distinguishing between these is to add an adjective specifying what sort arXiv:q-bio/0403031v1 [q-bio.NC] 22 Mar 2004 is being discussed. But there is not widespread agreement as to which adjectives should be used or exactly which perceptions they are supposed to refer to, because it is difficult to put complex perceptions into unambiguous language.
