Abstract

The 2nd edition of the Oxford Handbook of Music Psychology updates the original landmark text and provides a comprehensive review of the latest developments in this fast growing area of research. Covering both experimental and theoretical perspectives, each of the 11 sections is edited by an internationally recognised authority in the area. The first ten parts present chapters that focus on specific areas of music psychology: the origins and functions of music; music perception, responses to music; music and the brain; musical development; learning musical skills; musical performance; composition and improvisation; the role of music in everyday life; and music therapy. In each part authors critically review the literature, highlight current issues and explore possibilities for the future. The final part examines how, in recent years, the study of music psychology has broadened to include a range of other disciplines. It considers the way that research has developed in relation to technological advances, and points the direction for further development in the field. With contributions from internationally recognised experts across 55 chapters, it is an essential resource for students and researchers in psychology and musicology.

Abstract

The power of music to influence mood, create scenes, routines and occasions is widely recognised and this is reflected in a strand of social theory from Plato to Adorno that portrays music as an influence on character, social structure and action. There have, however, been few attempts to specify this power empirically and to provide theoretically grounded accounts of music's structuring properties in everyday experience. Music in Everyday Life uses a series of ethnographic studies - an aerobics class, karaoke evenings, music therapy sessions and the use of background music in the retail sector - as well as in-depth interviews to show how music is a constitutive feature of human agency. Drawing together concepts from psychology, sociology and socio-linguistics it develops a theory of music's active role in the construction of personal and social life and highlights the aesthetic dimension of social order and organisation in late modern societies.

Abstract

Building on the insights of the first volume on Music and Gesture (Gritten & King, Ashgate 2006), the chapters are structured in a broad narrative trajectory moving from theory to practice, embracing Western and non-Western practices, real and virtual gestures, live and recorded performances, physical and acoustic gestures, visual and auditory perception, among other themes of topical interest. The main areas of enquiry include psychobiology; perception and cognition; philosophy and semiotics; conducting; ensemble work and solo piano playing.

Abstract

Depuis sa première édition en 1998, ce livre est devenu un texte de référence, traduit en plusieurs langues. Dans cette nouvelle édition revue et actualisée, Michel Chion propose à la fois un état des lieux sur l'acoustique, la musique, la psychologie de l'écoute, et un texte-bilan. Prolongeant la démarche de Pierre Schaeffer qui a permis de penser et de décrire les sons comme des objets, il présente les grandes lignes d'une discipline nouvelle, l'acoulogie, où le son n'est plus seulement le symbole d'une harmonie perdue ou d'un "continent noir" de la perception, mais aussi un objet culturel à construire par des techniques d'écoute et par une exigence de nomination.Riche en ouvertures, réflexions et concepts originaux, cet essai synthétique vise à mettre en valeur la complexité des objets sonores et leurs mutations à travers les évolutions technologiques. Il nous invite à une observation attentive du sonore dans notre vie quotidienne, mais aussi dans la philosophie, la littérature, la musique, le cinéma.

Abstract

The study of music and the brain can be traced back to the work of Gall in the 18th century, continuing with John Hughlings Jackson, August Knoblauch, Richard Wallaschek, and others. These early researchers were interested in localizing musicality in the brain and learning more about how music is processed in both healthy individuals and those with dysfunctions of various kinds. Since then, the research literature has mushroomed, especially in the latter part of the 20th and early 21st centuries. The Oxford Handbook of Music and the Brain is a groundbreaking compendium of current research on music in the human brain. It brings together an international roster of 54 authors from 13 countries providing an essential guide to this rapidly growing field. The major themes include Music, the Brain, and Cultural Contexts; Music Processing in The Human Brain; Neural Responses to Music; Musicianship and Brain Function; Developmental Issues in Music and the Brain; Music, the Brain, and Health; and the Future. Each chapter offers a thorough review of the current status of research literature as well as an examination of limitations of knowledge and suggestions for future advancement and research efforts. 0The book is valuable for a broad readership including neuroscientists, musicians, clinicians, researchers and scholars from related fields but also readers with a general interest in the topic.

Abstract

Cet ouvrage se donne pour objectif d'interroger le rôle de la perception et des sciences cognitives dans les théories et méthodes d'analyse musicale, ainsi que dans l'étude de la performance musicale. Les différentes réflexions et approches analytiques convoquées dans ce volume sont regroupées en quatre champs d'investigation. Le premier explore l'analyse du timbre et les pratiques d'orchestration en ayant recours à certaines notions provenant de la psychoacoustique. Le deuxième concerne l'analyse esthésique de la musique électroacoustique, c'est-à-dire une analyse qui se place prioritairement du point de vue de l'écoute et qui prend en compte le sujet percevant. Le troisième champ s'intéresse, de façon transhistorique et trans-stylistique, aux liens entre l'écoute, l'oreille de celui qui analyse, la notation et la transcription de l'objet musical. Le dernier champ se focalise sur de nouvelles méthodes qui intègrent certaines théories issues des neurosciences dans l'analyse de la performance et dans l'apprentissage du chant.
