A comprehensive survey of the latest neuroscientific research into the effects of music on the brainCovers a variety of topics fundamental for music perception, including musical syntax, musical semantics, music and action, music andemotionIncludes general introductory chapters to engage a broad readership, as well as a wealth of detailed research material for expertsOffers the most empirical (and most systematic) work on the topics of neural correlates of musical syntax and musical semanticsIntegrates research from different domains (such as music, language, action and emotion both theoretically and empirically, to create a comprehensive theory of music psychology INDICE: Preface ixPart I Introductory Chapters 11 Ear and Hearing 31.1 Theear 31.2 Auditory brainstem and thalamus 61.3 Place and time information 81.4Beats, roughness, consonance and dissonance 91.5 Acoustical equivalency of timbre and phoneme 111.6 Auditory cortex 122 Music-theoretical Background 172.1 How major keys are related 172.2 The basic in-key functions in major 202.3 Chord inversions and Neapolitan sixth chords 212.4 Secondary dominants and doubledominants 213 Perception of Pitch and Harmony 233.1 Context-dependent representation of pitch 233.2 The representation of key-relatedness 263.3 The developing and changing sense of key 293.4 The representation of chord-functions 303.5 Hierarchy of harmonic stability 313.6 Musical expectancies 353.7 Chord sequence paradigms 364 From Electric Brain Activity to ERPs and ERFs 404.1 Electro-encephalography (EEG) 434.1.1 The 10-20 system 434.1.2 Referencing 454.2 Obtaining event-related brain potentials (ERPs) 454.3 Magnetoencephalography (MEG) 484.3.1 Forward solution and inverse problem 494.3.2 Comparison between MEG and EEG 495 ERP Components 515.1 Auditory P1, N1, P2 515.2 Frequency-following response (FFR) 535.3 Mismatch negativity 545.3.1 MMN in neonates 575.3.2 MMN and music 575.4 N2b and P300 595.5 ERP-correlates of language processing 595.5.1Semantic processes: N400 605.5.2 Syntactic processes: (E)LAN and P600 635.5.3Prosodic processes: Closure Positive Shift 676 A Brief Historical Account of ERP Studies of Music Processing 706.1 The beginnings: Studies with melodic stimuli 706.2 Studies with chords 746.3 MMN studies 756.4 Processing of musical meaning 766.5 Processing of musical phrase boundaries 776.6 Music and action 777 Functional Neuroimaging Methods: fMRI and PET 797.1 Analysis of fMRI data 817.2 Sparse temporal sampling in fMRI 847.3 Interleaved silent steady state fMRI 857.4 €˜Activation€™ vs. €˜activity change€™ 85Part II Towards a New Theory of Music Psychology 878 Music Perception: A Generative Framework 899 Musical Syntax 989.1 What is musical syntax?
