Schäfer, Thomas. "The Goals and Effects of Music Listening and Their Relationship to the Strength of Music Preference." Universitätsbibliothek Chemnitz, 2016. http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bsz:ch1-qucosa-201941.

Abstract:

Individual differences in the strength of music preference are among the most intricate psychological phenomena. While one person gets by very well without music, another person needs to listen to music every day and spends a lot of temporal and financial resources on listening to music, attending concerts, or buying concert tickets. Where do these differences come from? The hypothesis presented in this article is that the strength of music preference is mainly informed by the functions that music fulfills in people’s lives (e.g., to regulate emotions, moods, or physiological arousal; to promo

Generative music, manifesting a perpetually new music which transcends the temporal limitations of both live and recorded music, presents us with continuously new possibilities and perspectives which in turn enable new modes of being. As specific compositional choices are automated, the sonic possibility space thus becomes the operative creative field. The new concern with structural possibilities as they come to presence yields a new listening ontology.

These historical perspectives inform my analyses of compositions by Mikhail Glinka, Mily Balakirev, Alexander Dargomyzhsky, and Anton Rubinstein.

Specifically, we sought to determine if music can be used as a mnemonic device to overcome the associative memory deficits typically experienced by healthy older adults. We used a paired-associates memory task in which young and older adults listened to either highly or lowly arou

Abstract:

This thesis is about music, meaning and listening. It attempts to address the question of how music means to listeners by situating listeners at the centre of music analysis, examining the meanings that they construct when they experience musical situations. In its first chapter, the concept of meaning is interrogated and a model for understanding meaning, and how it is generated, is developed. My meaning-relations model proposes a conception of meaning as fundamentally subjective, relational and context-dependant, whilst arguing that shared human experiences can give rise to intersubjective m

Systematic documentation of the author's listening experience is presented as an application of this premise and as a template to use in subsequent investigations of how other listeners respond to the work.

This thesis locates historical discourses about music listening within the field of sound studies.

An important theoretical premise of the research is the historicity of folk and expert notions that are normally employed in describing the structuring of the human psyche, like “sensation” and “perception”, which are related to the distinction between “to hear” and “to listen”.

Within the field of audience studies it has been acknowledged that audience experience is altered by the presence of other listeners (Pitts 2005) and this can form audience communities (Pitts & Spencer 2008; Benzecry 2009, 2011). However, the notion of audience community is not fully accepted, with Phillip Auslander suggesting live audiences partake in no more than ‘common consumption’ (2008: 64). Previous authors have called for more understanding of classical music communities and how effectively a newcomer may integrate with them (Pitts & Spencer 2008: 237).
