Contour, interval, and pitch recognition in memory for melodies.
Melodic contour (the sequence of ups and downs ina melody, regardless of interval size) expresses t[ose aspects of a melody that are most essential to manipulation of that melody in various musical structures, e.g., folktunes and fugues. This is demonstrated by brief analyses of actual music. Two experiments demon-, strate the role of melodic contour recognition in memory for melodies. Experime...
متن کاملUsing Pitch Stability Among a Group of Aligned Query Melodies to Retrieve Unidentified Variant Melodies
Melody identification is an important task in folk song variation research. In this paper we develop methods and tools that support researchers in finding melodies in a database that belong to the same variant group as a set of given melodies. The basic approach is to derive from the pitches of the known variants per onset a weighted pitch distribution, which quantifies pitch stability. We allo...
متن کاملPitch perception.
Pitch is one of the primary auditory sensations and plays a defining role in music, speech, and auditory scene analysis. Although the main physical correlate of pitch is acoustic periodicity, or repetition rate, there are many interactions that complicate the relationship between the physical stimulus and the perception of pitch. In particular, the effects of other acoustic parameters on pitch ...
متن کاملPeriodicity and pitch perception.
There has been experimental evidence pointing to at least two pitch mechanisms, the first involving low-order harmonics that are resolved along the basilar membrane, and the second a periodicity mechanism that depends only on the repetition rate of the time waveform on the basilar membrane. If this time waveform is derived from repeated bursts of sinusoidal tone, the second mechanism might be t...
متن کاملDoes a pitch center exist in auditory cortex?
Pitch perception is an important component of hearing, allowing us to appreciate melodies and harmonies as well as recognize prosodic cues in speech. Multiple studies over the last decade have suggested that pitch is represented by a pitch-processing center in auditory cortex. However, recent data (Barker D, Plack CJ, Hall DA. Cereb Cortex. In press; Hall DA, Plack CJ. Cereb Cortex 19: 576-585,...
