Opis

This text comprises of reviews of work relating to music and mind. It presents a range of approaches from the psychological through the computational, to the musicological. The reviews were selected from papers submitted at the Third International Conference on Music Perception and Cognition (Liege 1994) to illustrate the wide range of perspectives now being adopted in studying how humans make and respond to music.

Recenzje

... Its material will appeal immediately to those working in the field of music psychology - for whom it is surely essential reading - the book has a far wider applicability. Anyone who endeavours to write about musical experience, in its broadest conception, is also necessarily engaged in searching for new rhetorics, an unending activity that would be energized by immersion in Perception and Cogintion of Music. - Peter Cornish, in Music and Letters vol. 81 2000

Without question, this book is an important resource. It provides interesting and valuable information. The topics are well researched and have been chosen for this volume through a poll of delegates attending the conference where this research was initially presented. The contributors include important researchers in the field of music perception and cognition from around the world. Perception and Cognition of Music is an important reference for those involved or interested in psychology of music. It can provide insight and information helpful to music therapists, but is not directed specifically to them or the field of music therapy. - John A. Lyncher, Western Michigan University
