A Concept for Exploring Western Music Tonality in Physical Space [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Musical theory about the structure and morphology of Western tonality is quite difficult to teach to young children, due to the relatively complex mathematical concepts behind tonality.

Music Tonality and Context-Dependent Recall: The Influence of Key Change and Mood Mediation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Music in a minor key is often claimed to sound sad, whereas music in a major key is typically viewed as sounding cheerful. Such claims suggest that maintaining or switching the tonality of a musical selection between information encoding and retrieval ...

Trajectory of Fifths in Music Data Mining

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
This article presents a new concept of a music piece's content representation using the so-called trajectory of fifths. The herein proposed approach is an enhancement to the music data mining techniques based on the analysis of the music signature ...

Perceived Emotions of Harmonic Cadences

open access: yesMusic & Science, 2020
Harmonic cadences are chord progressions that play an important structural role in Western classical music – they demarcate musical phrases and contribute to the tonality.

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 ...

Exploring the foundations of tonality: statistical cognitive modeling of modes in the history of Western classical music

open access: yesHumanities & Social Sciences Communications, 2021
Tonality is one of the most central theoretical concepts for the analysis of Western classical music. This study presents a novel approach for the study of its historical development, exploring in particular the concept of mode.

Computational Tonality Estimation: Signal Processing and Hidden Markov Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
PhDThis thesis investigates computational musical tonality estimation from an audio signal. We present a hidden Markov model (HMM) in which relationships between chords and keys are expressed as probabilities of emitting observable chords from a hidden

Tonality Tunes the Statistical Characteristics in Music: Computational Approaches on Statistical Learning

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2019
Statistical learning is a learning mechanism based on transition probability in sequences such as music and language. Recent computational and neurophysiological studies suggest that the statistical learning contributes to production, action, and musical
