IS ABSOLUTE PITCH A SPECIAL ABILITY OR SOMETHING WE ALL HAVE? A REVIEW BASED ON GENETIC, NEUROSCIENTIFIC AND EXPERIMENTAL PSYCHOLOGICAL FINDINGS

open access: yesKülönleges Bánásmód, 2019

Music proficiency and quantification of absolute pitch: a large-scale study among Brazilian musicians

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2016
Absolute pitch (AP) is the ability to identify and name the pitch of a sound without external reference. Often, accuracy and speed at naming isolated musical pitches are correlated with demographic, biological and acoustical parameters to gain insight ...

Domain-specific hearing-in-noise performance is associated with absolute pitch proficiency

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Recent evidence suggests that musicians may have an advantage over non-musicians in perceiving speech against noisy backgrounds. Previously, musicians have been compared as a homogenous group, despite demonstrated heterogeneity, which may contribute to ...

Use of explicit priming to phenotype absolute pitch ability.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Musicians with absolute pitch (AP) can name the pitch of a musical note in isolation. Expression of this unusual ability is thought to be influenced by heritability, early music training and current practice. However, our understanding of factors shaping

Valproate reopens critical-period learning of absolute pitch

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2013
Absolute pitch, the ability to identify or produce the pitch of a sound without a reference point, has a critical period, i.e. it can only be acquired early in life. However, research has shown that histone-deacetylase inhibitors (HDAC inhibitors) enable

Is Absolute Pitch Associated With Musical Tension Processing?

open access: yesi-Perception, 2020
Absolute pitch (AP) is a superior ability to identify or produce musical tones without a reference tone. Although a few studies have investigated the relationship between AP and high-level music processing such as tonality and syntactic processing, very ...

Absolute tonality and absolute pitch [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1981
The initial 5 s of each of the 12 major-key preludes from Bach's Well-Tempered Clavichord was recorded as written and also shifted by ±1, 4, 6, or 7 semitones, and a randomized tape consisting of two repetitions of each of the 108 items was prepared. Twenty musicians, mostly pianists, decided whether each item was played in the correct key, transposed ...
