The Influence of Characteristics on Music Enjoyment and Preference
Page 12 Oshkosh Scholar The Influence of Characteristics on Music Enjoyment and Preference Kristie Wirth, author Dr. Quin Chrobak, Psychology, faculty mentor Kristie Wirth is a senior at UW Oshkosh studying psychology and French. She plans to pursue a Ph.D. in counseling psychology after graduating. Her ideal career would involve both teaching and counseling at a university. She conducted the following research study as part of the McNair Scholars Program during spring 2012. Dr. Quin Chrobak received his B.A. from Drew University, his M.A. from American University, and his Ph.D. in experimental psychology from Kent State University. His research focuses on understanding how memory and cognition operate in complex real-world situations. Most recently, his research has begun to explore the notion that the nature of the relationship between witnessed and suggested/fabricated events may contribute to the false memory development. Abstract Past research has indicated that two specific personality traits, openness and empathy, may contribute to greater enjoyment of music that expresses negative emotions. Individuals with elevated levels of depressive symptoms may similarly have a preference for negative music. However, no research to date has explored the impact of both personality traits and depressive symptoms in the same investigation. The current study measured both music enjoyment (how much people like certain music) and music preference (how often people choose to listen to certain music) after exposure to negative, neutral, and positive music. Supporting prior research, this study indicated that individuals high in overall empathy (the ability to experience the emotions of another) had a greater enjoyment of negative emotional music. -
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. -

The Sources of the Christmas Interpolations in J. S. Bach's Magnificat in E-Flat Major (BWV 243A)*
The Sources of the Christmas Interpolations in J. S. Bach's Magnificat in E-flat Major (BWV 243a)* By Robert M. Cammarota Apart from changes in tonality and instrumentation, the two versions of J. S. Bach's Magnificat differ from each other mainly in the presence offour Christmas interpolations in the earlier E-flat major setting (BWV 243a).' These include newly composed settings of the first strophe of Luther's lied "Vom Himmel hoch, da komm ich her" (1539); the last four verses of "Freut euch und jubiliert," a celebrated lied whose origin is unknown; "Gloria in excelsis Deo" (Luke 2:14); and the last four verses and Alleluia of "Virga Jesse floruit," attributed to Paul Eber (1570).2 The custom of troping the Magnificat at vespers on major feasts, particu larly Christmas, Easter, and Pentecost, was cultivated in German-speaking lands of central and eastern Europe from the 14th through the 17th centu ries; it continued to be observed in Leipzig during the first quarter of the 18th century. The procedure involved the interpolation of hymns and popu lar songs (lieder) appropriate to the feast into a polyphonic or, later, a con certed setting of the Magnificat. The texts of these interpolations were in Latin, German, or macaronic Latin-German. Although the origin oftroping the Magnificat is unknown, the practice has been traced back to the mid-14th century. The earliest examples of Magnifi cat tropes occur in the Seckauer Cantional of 1345.' These include "Magnifi cat Pater ingenitus a quo sunt omnia" and "Magnificat Stella nova radiat. "4 Both are designated for the Feast of the Nativity.' The tropes to the Magnificat were known by different names during the 16th, 17th, and early 18th centuries. -

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. -

Analysis of Emotional Dimensions in Music Using Time Series Techniques
Analysis of Emotional Dimensions in Music Using Time Series Techniques Emery Schubert Few who have experienced the thrill of emotional interactions with music would deny that such experiences are important and enriching. These intoxicating episodes can be superior to any heightening or soothing drug because they occur without unpleasant side-effects. The fact that music can express such emotions—move people to tears of lament and to teeth-clenching ecstasy—is, for many, a wondrous mystery. How is it that by manipulating combinations of innocuous acoustic parameters composers and performers can produce such potent effects? The question has occupied scholars and practitioners for over twenty centuries. One of the many problems that face researchers is the lack of objective data available for comparing music and emotion. Further, experimental research in this area has tended to treat music as a stimulus that can be dealt with by a single point response. While experimental methodology requires an element of reductionism, in this article I argue that it is possible to obtain an additional dimension to the understanding of emotion in music by tracking emotional responses to music continuously. My work is based on the fundamental assumption that there are underlying rules that govern the relationship between music and emotion within a given culture.1 The strength of the experimental approach has been summarised by Pike, who indicated the benefit of collecting responses from several people instead of the introspections of the 1 My approach implies both a reductionist and behaviourist approach. While the approach of the reductionist is present, I rebuff the claim of a behaviourist approach. -
The Christology of Bach's St John Passion
PARADOSIS 3 (2016) ‘Zeig uns durch deine Passion’: The Christology of Bach’s St John Passion Andreas Loewe St Paul’s Cathedral Melbourne Melbourne Conservatorium of Music Introduction On a wet, early spring afternoon, on Good Friday 1724, the congregants of Leipzig’s Nikolaikirche witnessed the first performance of Bach’s St John Passion.1 For at least a generation, Good Friday in Leipzig’s principal Lutheran churches—St Thomas’, St Nikolai and the ‘New’ Church—had concluded with the singing of Johann Walter’s chanted Passion.2 As part of the final liturgical observance of the day, the story of the death of Jesus would be sung, combining words and music in order to reflect on the significance of that day. Bach took the proclamation of the cross to a new level – theologically and musically. Rather than use a poetic retelling of the Passion story as his textual basis, Bach made use of a single gospel account, matched with contemporary poems and traditional chorales to retell the trial and death of Jesus. By providing regular opportunities for theological reflection, he purposefully created a “sermon in sound” and so, in his music making, he closely mirrors Lutheran Baroque homiletic principles. An orthodox Lutheran believer throughout his life, Bach’s Passion serves as a vehicle to invite his listeners to make their own his belief that it was “through Christ’s agony and death” that “all the world’s 1 Andreas Elias Büchner, Johann Kanold, Vollständiges und accurates Universal-Register, Aller wichtigen und merckwürdigen Materien (Erfurt: Jungnicol, 1736), 680. 2 As popularised in Gottfried Vopelius, ed., Neu Leipziger Gesangbuch/ Von den schönsten und besten Liedern verfasset/ In welchem Nicht allein des sel. -
The Treatment of the Chorale Wie Scan Leuchtet Der Iorgenstern in Organ Compositions from the Seven Teenth Century to the Twentieth Century
379 THE TREATMENT OF THE CHORALE WIE SCAN LEUCHTET DER IORGENSTERN IN ORGAN COMPOSITIONS FROM THE SEVEN TEENTH CENTURY TO THE TWENTIETH CENTURY THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State College in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF MUSIC By Paul Winston Renick, B. M. Denton, Texas August, 1961 PREFACE The chorale Wie schn iihtet derMorgenstern was popular from its very outset in 1589. That it has retained its popularity down to the present day is evident by its continually appearing in hymnbooks and being used as a cantus in organ compositions as well as forming the basis for other media of musical composition. The treatment of organ compositions based on this single chorale not only exemplifies the curiously novel attraction that this tune has held for composers, but also supplies a common denominator by which the history of the organ chorale can be generally stated. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page PREFACE . * . * . * . * * * . * .
