Music and Schema Theory

More about the book

Exploring the intersection of music and schema theory, this book delves into how perceptual structures for pitch and timbre are formed and function. It emphasizes the emergence of schemata through computer-based simulations of tone center perception, shedding light on the self-organization of memory structures. By examining how contextual information influences perception, the work aims to enhance our understanding of music perception and the cognitive processes involved in interpreting musical elements.
