Independent temporal and pitch structures in determination of musical phrases.

چکیده
In two experiments we addressed the roles of temporal and pitch structures in judgments of melodic phrases. Musical excerpts were rated on how good or complete a phrase they made. In Experiment 1, trials in the temporal condition retained the original temporal pattern but were equitonal; trials in the pitch condition retained the original pitch pattern but were equitemporal; and trials in the melody condition contained both temporal and pitch patterns. In Experiment 2, one pattern (pitch or temporal) was shifted in phase and recombined with the other pattern to create the pitch and temporal conditions. In the melody condition, both patterns were shifted together. In both experiments, ratings in the temporal and pitch conditions were uncorrelated, and the melody condition ratings were accurately predicted by a linear combination of the pitch and temporal condition ratings. These results were consistent across musicians with varying levels of experience.

In this paper we have extracted the notes of Iranian scale from the traditional music played by the great musician Shahnazi on the TAR. Then, by analyzing the spectrum of the notes and by using our special averaging we have found the pitch attributed to the components’ frequency and found the interval between the notes. The results are in comple agreement with Pythagorean scale. Pitch is a su...
متن کاملCritical Review: Melodic Intonation Therapy: The Influence of Pitch and Rhythm on Therapy Outcomes
Melodic Intonation Therapy (MIT) involves involves patients with nonfluent aphasia intoning (singing) melodic phrases while tapping syllables. Thus, MIT incorporates the musical components of both pitch and rhythm. This critical review explores the relative contribution of the rhythmic and pitch components of MIT to determine if both components are required for success. To explore this question...

Music processing ability was studied in 65 right-handed patients who had undergone unilateral temporal cortectomy for the relief of intractable epilepsy, and 24 matched normal controls. The ability to recognize changes in note intervals and to distinguish between different rhythms and metres was tested by presentation of sequences of simple musical phrases with variations in either pitch or tem...
متن کاملWhat Constitutes a Phrase in Sound-Based Music? A Mixed-Methods Investigation of Perception and Acoustics
Phrasing facilitates the organization of auditory information and is central to speech and music. Not surprisingly, aspects of changing intensity, rhythm, and pitch are key determinants of musical phrases and their boundaries in instrumental note-based music. Different kinds of speech (such as tone- vs. stress-languages) share these features in different proportions and form an instructive comp...
متن کاملMusicality and non-native speech sound processing are linked through temporal, pitch and spectral acuity
Are observed links between musicality and non-native speech sound processing due to superior sensory processing of temporal, pitch, and spectral information, which benefits both musical and linguistic processing? Native English speakers discriminated Norwegian tonal contrasts, non-linguistic puretone analogues, Norwegian vowels, and short tones differing in temporal, pitch and spectral characte...
