A Comparison of Dynamics in Major- and Minor-key Works

نویسنده

  • BEN TURNER
چکیده

An analysis of dynamic markings in 24 paired preludes in major and minor keys shows that the minor mode is associated with a generally lower dynamic level than the major mode. The results are consistent with observations in speech prosody, where sad or depressed speakers show reduced acoustic energy compared with normal or happy speakers. Submitted 2007 October 15; accepted 2008 January 6.

Alborziphyllinae, A New Late Devonian Rugose Corals Subfamily

Members of the family Laccophyllidae are small, solitary rugose corals with stratigraphic ranges from Silurian to Permian. Among the laccophyllids, axial ends of major septa are united in an aulos and dissepiments may be absent or present. Minor septa can be contratingent and sometimes are small or in some genera are absent. Septa and aulos may be thick or thin. In this study, Famennian rugose...

THE STUDY OF CHROMOSOMES AND SOLUBLE PROTEINS IN FOUR SPECIES OF VINCA (V.ROSEA, V. MAJOR , V. MINOR, V.HERBACEA) GROWN IN IRAN

Indole ahloids of Vinca species are valued greatly in medical sciences, one reason being for their use as powerful anticancer agents. There are four species of Vinca in Iran: V. rosea, V. major, V. minor and V. herbacea. In previous investigations, we found that these plants have considerable alkaloid similarity (58.8- 75%). Therefore, chromosomic and electrophuretic studies followed after i...

Beyond Happiness and Sadness: Affective Associations of Lyrics with Modality and Dynamics

A study is reported investigating the relationship between modality (major/minor) and dynamics (piano/forte) on four affects – as evident in the content of musical lyrics. Forty solo vocal works were sampled: 10 in the major mode with a loud (forte) dynamic level, 10 in the major mode with a quiet (piano) dynamic level, 10 in the minor mode with a loud dynamic level, and 10 in the minor mode wi...

Putative Binding Sites of Dopamine and Arachidonoyl Dopamine to Beta-lactoglobulin: A Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics Study

Because of participation in many aspects of human life, and due to oxidation-sensitive characteristics of dopamine (DA) and arachidonoyl dopamine (AA-DA), the necessity of biocompatible carrier to keep them against oxidation is of importance. In this work, we explored the putative binding sites of DA and AA-DA to -lactoglobulin (BLG) as potent carrier. Docking results identified the binding si...
