In an interdisciplinary research project carried out by a violinist and a psychophysiologist which is based on a videotape of a performance by the violinist, David Oistrakh, we draw attention to certain postural attitudes and movements which appear in sequences of his rendition of the Brandenburg Concerto N. 4 by Bach and the Concerto for Violin in D Major by Mozart. These postural attitudes an...

Lundu is a typical Brazilian popular musical form at the 19th century. The distinguished musicologist Mozart de Araújo devoted himself to studying lundus and other forms of that period. He collected 48 lundus, which are nowadays stored in a private library, unavailable to public access. The present work describes the implementation of a digital collection of those lundus, using Dspace as the re...

In this paper a computational model is described that transcribes polyphonic MIDI pitch files into the Western traditional music notation. Input to the proposed algorithm input is merely a sequence of MIDI pitch numbers in the order they appear in a MIDI file. No a priori knowledge is required such as key signature, tonal centers, time signature, voice separation and so on. Output of the algori...

Efforts to replicate the Mozart effect have been mixed, possibly due to differences in dependent variable operationalization across studies or large individual differences in magnitude of effect. Chabria and Kosslyn (1998) found that coordinate spatial proces...
