THE INFLUENCE OF MUSICAL PARAMETERS ON PERCEIVED EMOTIONAL EXPRESSION
THE INFLUENCE OF MUSICAL PARAMETERS ON PERCEIVED EMOTIONAL EXPRESSION

Summary/Abstract: The term Becker adapts from Bourdieu, habitus of listening, underlines the interrelatedness of the perception of musical emotion and learned interactions. Montague Lavy remarks that a listener engaged with the complex structures of a piece of music is generating expectancies of his own in response to that music. Norris explores the notion of responsedependence as applied to our experience, knowledge, and judgement of musical works. Zentner et al. observe that music is an effective means of mood, induction in the laboratory, a means of mood manipulation to alter consumer behavior, and a tool for the treatment of emotional disorders.
