Overall Loudness versus Average of Instantaneous Loudness for Excerpts of Music: Effects of Musical Style
نویسندگان
چکیده
For the investigation of level fluctuating sounds of longer duration – in particular noise immissions – the method of “Continuous Judgment by Category” was proposed by Namba and Kuwano and applied in several studies by them and others, e.g. [1]-[4]. Arakawa et al. also demonstrated the applicability to music [5]. Recently, this method was used again as part of an investigation to study the popular question: “Does the taste in music influence the perception of loudness?“

Perceptual findings on the broadway belt voice.
The present study required raters (casting directors) to evaluate the belt voice quality of 20 musical theater majors who were proficient in the singing style referred to as belting. Two specified vocalizes and six short excerpts from the belting repertoire were used for rating purposes. The raters were asked to judge the belters on a set of seven perceptual parameters (loudness, vibrato, ring,...
متن کاملMusical Expertise and the Ability to Imagine Loudness
Most perceived parameters of sound (e.g. pitch, duration, timbre) can also be imagined in the absence of sound. These parameters are imagined more veridically by expert musicians than non-experts. Evidence for whether loudness is imagined, however, is conflicting. In music, the question of whether loudness is imagined is particularly relevant due to its role as a principal parameter of performa...
متن کاملExplaining Musical Expression as a Mixture of Basis Functions
The quest for understanding how pianists interpret notated music to turn it into a lively musical experience, has led to numerous models of musical expression. One of the major dimensions of musical expression is loudness. Several models exist that explain loudness variations over the course of a performance, in terms of for example phrase structure, or musical accent. Often however, especially...
متن کاملMental Imagery for Musical Changes in Loudness
Musicians imagine music during mental rehearsal, when reading from a score, and while composing. An important characteristic of music is its temporality. Among the parameters that vary through time is sound intensity, perceived as patterns of loudness. Studies of mental imagery for melodies (i.e., pitch and rhythm) show interference from concurrent musical pitch and verbal tasks, but how we rep...
متن کاملAn Automated Event Analysis System with Compositional Applications
A modular system for event analysis is described which utilises psychoacoustically motivated onset detection to segment a musical audio signal. The target events have duration above the grain level in the 100-500mS range. Captured events are further analysed for features of pitch, integrated loudness and perceptual attack time. As a pragmatic approach to polyphonic audio, heuristics are specifi...
