Program

1. A study on the characteristics of pitch perception in listeners with and without absolute pitch

Characteristics of pitch perception in Japanese listeners with and without absolute pitch (AP) were described according to their scores on an AP-test and a questionnaire.The results showed that in this study significantly more female participants than male participants could be qualified as AP possessors, and that an early starting age of musical education is related to AP possession.

2. A study on sensing the color of music in Japanese chromesthetes and non-chromesthetes

In order to gain insight into the perceptual relation between color and music, Japanese chromesthetes and non-chromesthetes were asked to listen to musical excerpts and indicate the color they associated with each piece on a color palette. Music-color association scores suggested that overall the scores for these Japanese listeners followed those obtained in earlier research with Western listeners. Differences between the scores of chromesthetes and non-chromesthetes will be discussed.

3. Does music cross all boarders? A cross-culture comparison of tonality perception

While experimental cross-cultural studies reported that tonality perception is universally determined, developmental evidence have suggested that there are likely to be culture differences in tonality perception. To ascertain influences of cultural differences, we directly compared tonal responses among Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Indonesians, and Americans. Our data clearly demonstrated that tonality perception is considerably influenced by cultures.

We will get together after the Seminar.
