Abstract:
Although certain parallels can be drawn between written language and notation in music — both use arbitrary visual symbols to notate the salient aspects of a sound pattern, the purpose of each notational system differs markedly. While the primary function of written language is to carry referential meaning, the primary function of musical notation is to carry instructions for the production of a musical performance. Music reading thus lies at the interface between perception and action and provides an ecological model with which to study how visual instructions influence the motor system. The

Abstract:
Prior neuroimaging work on visual perceptual expertise has focused on changes in the visual system, ignoring possible effects of acquiring expert visual skills in nonvisual areas. We investigated expertise for reading musical notation, a skill likely to be associated with multimodal abilities. We compared brain activity in music-reading experts and novices during perception of musical notation, Roman letters, and mathematical symbols and found selectivity for musical notation for experts in a widespread multimodal network of areas. The activity in several of these areas was correlated with a b

Abstract:
Most theories of visual processing propose that object recognition is achieved in higher visual cortex. However, we show that category selectivity for musical notation can be observed in the first ERP component called the C1 (measured 40–60 msec after stimulus onset) with music-reading expertise. Moreover, the C1 note selectivity was observed only when the stimulus category was blocked but not when the stimulus category was randomized. Under blocking, the C1 activity for notes predicted individual music-reading ability, and behavioral judgments of musical stimuli reflected music-reading skill.

Abstract:
Ignorance of the basic principles of music reading was one of the primary obstacles to the improvement of congregational singing in nineteenth-century America. Six separate numeral notation systems arose to provide a simple way for the common man to learn the basic principles of music. Hartley Day developed his own numeral notation system and published six tune-books that enjoyed modest success in the New England area. This thesis examines Day's numeral notation system as it appeared in the Boston Numeral Harmony (1845), and the One-Line Psalmist (1849). It also studies Day's periodical, The M

Abstract:
There is evidence that the strategies used by fluent readers of written language and by fluent "sight-readers" of musical notation are much the same. Both require a background in the modality represented by the written symbols. Both require context for construction of meaning through sampling and prediction. In this study, a method of elementary music-reading instruction was developed in which musical notation is introduced in the context of musical patterns familiar to the students through earlier musical experiences. The focus is on melodic contour and rhythmic units, initially with no empha

Abstract:
This chapter dissects the physiological matter of song by attending to the gendered mechanisms and rhetorical effects of the musical breath. It explores how early moderns conceptualized the acoustic medium of the breath, charts its movement through the vocal mechanism of the body, and examines the traces of that process preserved in physiological treatises, singing handbooks, and surviving manuscript and print scores. While these documents provide rich insight into singing as a physical and acoustic phenomenon in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England, they testify equally powerfully to song’s airy intangibility, particularly at moments where language and musical notation strain to represent the physical experience of singing. Reading the ambivalent figure of the singing siren alongside the prolific output of Margaret Cavendish, the final section of the chapter considers the acoustic impact of the musical breath in relation to the culturally fraught phenomenon of women’s song performance.

Abstract:
Technical information on the basic bow stroke of the giga and dynamic variation within it are the subject of two exercises. The sarabanda is contrasted with that of Corelli (Lesson Seventeen) and the student encouraged to realize the figured bass of this and other movements. Rhythm contains emotional information just as harmony does: altering the rhythms of a melody line by Pergolesi and comparing their impact demonstrates this point. Vivaldi uses syncopations, hemiolas, and ambiguities of time signature, and he tussles with the bass to give his corrente rhythmic interest, so maximizing the rhythmic impact is the purpose of Exercise 87. Last, the student is encouraged to read the by now familiar sonata from the original 1709 edition as a preparation to reading seventeenth-century notation in upcoming lessons. As usual, the lesson is packed with detailed observations of the text and technical and musical information.

Abstract:
Although research of optical music recognition (OMR) has existed for few decades, most of efforts were put in step of image processing to approach upmost accuracy and evaluations were not in common ground. And major music notations explored were the conventional western music notations with staff. On contrary, the authors explore the challenges of numbered music notation, which is popular in Asia and used in daily life for sight reading. The authors use different way to improve recognition accuracy by applying elementary image processing with rough tuning and supplementing with methods of machine learning. The major contributions of this work are the architecture of machine learning specified for this task, the dataset, and the evaluation metrics, which indicate the performance of OMR system, provide objective function for machine learning and highlight the challenges of the scores of music with the specified notation.

Abstract:
This chapter demonstrates the formative role dance played in the Christianization of the liturgy and the sacralization of time. Using evidence from liturgical manuals, musical notation, and rituals, it traces how devotional choreography recuperated pagan motifs, impressed itself onto the regular rhythms of the liturgical calendar, and partook in the dance of the cosmos. In church dramas, dance exerted a didactic function, reinforcing the theme of Christian salvation alongside anti-Judaic rhetoric. The first section traces the authorization of liturgical dance in the Western Middle Ages. Through its ritualization of dance, the Western Church reinvented ancient rites within the discipline of the Latin liturgy. The second section illuminates the use of dance in liturgical drama. On the liturgical stage, the reenactment of Christian history offered a space for the ambivalence of dance to be worked out and re-signified. The third section offers a close reading of one specific liturgical dance ritual in Auxerre. This rite reconciled a pre-Christian myth with medieval eschatology and the Christian ordo.

Abstract:
The third document of Tallis’s career shows him being sent away from Waltham Abbey, the last monastery dissolved in England, in March 1540. Tallis served the abbey as a professional musician, as he had done at Dover a decade earlier. He was the highest paid of more than sixty lay staff there. The Lady Chapel, where Tallis would have done much of his work, is still intact, including a large wall painting of the Last Judgment with angel musicians. Another precious survival from Waltham Abbey is a manuscript of music theory now in the British Library (Lansdowne 763), which Tallis took with him at his departure and inscribed with his own name. It is a comprehensive pre-Reformation guide to practical music: notation, sight-reading, improvisation, and simple composition.

Abstract:
Many school jazz programs in North America do an impressive job of developing their members’ technical and music-notation-reading skills, necessary to perform jazz big band literature with polish and precision. However, many school jazz students are as dependent on notation as they are in the concert band. Although the young jazzer may take improvised solos in jazz band performances, he may be unable to negotiate chord changes or incorporate characteristic jazz vocabulary. In light of this, this chapter covers concepts and skills relevant to beginning jazz instruction for wind instrumentalists. Specifically, it identifies three foundational topics for the reader to consider in fashioning an authentic and effective jazz curriculum: (1) establishing a listening foundation, (2) developing ear-playing ability, and (3) developing a personal repertoire of jazz tunes. Following these sections the text addresses (4) style and articulation and (5) rhythm.
