Syncopation and the Score
The score is a symbolic encoding that describes a piece of music, written according to the conventions of music theory, which must be rendered as sound (e.g., by a performer) before it may be perceived as music by the listener. In this paper we provide a step towards unifying music theory with music perception in terms of the relationship between notated rhythm (i.e., the score) and perceived s...
متن کاملMathematical Measures of Syncopation
Music is composed of tension and resolution, and one of the most interesting resources to create rhythmic tension is syncopation. Several attempts have been made to mathematically define a measure of syncopation that captures its essence. A first approach could be to consider the rhythmic oddity property used by Simha Arom to analyze rhythms from the Aka pygmies. Although useful for other purpo...
متن کاملA Corpus-Based Study on Ragtime Syncopation
This paper presents a corpus-based study on syncopation patterns in ragtime. We discuss open questions on the ragtime genre and the potential of computational tools in addressing these questions, contributing to the fields of Musicology and Music Information Retrieval (MIR), and giving back to the ragtime enthusiasts community. We introduce the RAG-collection of around 11000 ragtime MIDI files ...
متن کاملEvaluating and Extending Computational Models of Rhythmic Syncopation in Music
What makes a rhythm interesting, or even exciting to listeners? While in the literature a wide range of definitions of syncopation exists, few allow for a precise formalization. An exception is Longuet-Higgins and Lee (1984), that proposes a formal definition of syncopation. Interestingly, this model has never been challenged or empirically validated. In this paper the predictions made by this ...
متن کاملCorrection: Syncopation, Body-Movement and Pleasure in Groove Music
Moving to music is an essential human pleasure particularly related to musical groove. Structurally, music associated with groove is often characterised by rhythmic complexity in the form of syncopation, frequently observed in musical styles such as funk, hip-hop and electronic dance music. Structural complexity has been related to positive affect in music more broadly, but the function of sync...
