Vibrato: Questions and Answers from Musicians and Science
INTRODUCTION Vibrato is the periodic fluctuation in pitch, amplitude and/or timbre of a musical tone. It is used by singers, string players, and, in some cases, by wind instrumentalists to ornament or color a tone. Vibrato research has focused on the general characteristics of vibrato, such as its form (generally found to be sinusoidal, but mostly trapezoidal according to Horii, 1989b), its per...
متن کاملVisual memory in musicians and non-musicians
Many investigations have reported structural, functional, and cognitive changes in the brains of musicians, which occur as a result of many years of musical practice. We aimed to investigate if intensive, long-term musical practice is associated with improved visual memory ability. Musicians and non-musicians, who were comparable in age, gender, and education, were submitted to a visual memory ...
متن کاملMaximum Filter Vibrato Suppression for Onset Detection
We present SuperFlux a new onset detection algorithm with vibrato suppression. It is an enhanced version of the universal spectral flux onset detection algorithm, and reduces the number of false positive detections considerably by tracking spectral trajectories with a maximum filter. Especially for music with heavy use of vibrato (e.g., sung operas or string performances), the number of false p...
متن کاملAuditory and Visual Interhemispheric Communication in Musicians and Non-Musicians
The corpus callosum (CC) is a brain structure composed of axon fibres linking the right and left hemispheres. Musical training is associated with larger midsagittal cross-sectional area of the CC, suggesting that interhemispheric communication may be faster in musicians. Here we compared interhemispheric transmission times (ITTs) for musicians and non-musicians. ITT was measured by comparing si...
متن کاملLexical tone perception in musicians and non-musicians
It has been suggested that music and speech maintain entirely dissociable mental processing systems. The current study, however, provides evidence that there is an overlap in the processing of certain shared aspects of the two. This study focuses on fundamental frequency (pitch), which is an essential component of melodic units in music and lexical and/or intonational units in speech. We hypoth...
