Dimensions of emotion in expressive musical performance.

چکیده
This paper explores the dimensions of emotion conveyed by music. Participants rated emotion terms after seeing and/or hearing recordings of clarinet performances that varied in expressive content. A factor analysis revealed four independent dimensions of emotion. Changes to the clarinetists' expressive intentions did not significantly affect emotions conveyed by sound. It was largely through the visual modality that expressive intentions influenced the experience for observers.

Music to my eyes: cross-modal interactions in the perception of emotions in musical performance.
We investigate non-verbal communication through expressive body movement and musical sound, to reveal higher cognitive processes involved in the integration of emotion from multiple sensory modalities. Participants heard, saw, or both heard and saw recordings of a Stravinsky solo clarinet piece, performed with three distinct expressive styles: restrained, standard, and exaggerated intention. Pa...
متن کاملChanging Musical Emotion: A Computational Rule System for Modifying Score and Performance
Composers and performers communicate emotional intentions through the control of basic musical features such as pitch, loudness, and articulation. The extent to which emotion can be controlled by software through the systematic manipulation of these features has not been fully examined. To address this, we present CMERS, a Computational Music Emotion Rule System for the real-time control of mus...
متن کاملThe Performance Worm: Real Time Visualisation of Expression based on Langner's Tempo-Loudness Animation
In an expressive performance, a skilled musician shapes the music by continuously modulating aspects like tempo and loudness to communicate high level information such as musical structure and emotion. Although automatic modelling of this phenomenon remains beyond the current state of the art, we present a system that is able to measure tempo and dynamics of a musical performance and to track t...
متن کاملMusic : A Link Between Cognition and Emotion
Cognition and emotion are closely linked in music. The interplay between expectations and the sounded events is hypothesized to play a central role in creating musical tension and relaxation. The research summarized here is part of an ongoing program investigating how this dynamic aspect of musical emotion relates to the cognition of musical structure. Musical emotions change over time in inten...
متن کاملThe Production and Perception of Emotionally Expressive Walking Sounds: Similarities between Musical Performance and Everyday Motor Activity
Several studies have investigated the encoding and perception of emotional expressivity in music performance. A relevant question concerns how the ability to communicate emotions in music performance is acquired. In accordance with recent theories on the embodiment of emotion, we suggest here that both the expression and recognition of emotion in music might at least in part rely on knowledge a...
