Description
This unique reference book offers a holistic description of the multifaceted field of systematic musicology, which is the study of music, its production and perception, and its cultural, historical and philosophical background.
The seven sections reflect the main topics in this interdisciplinary subject.
The first two parts discuss musical acoustics and signal processing, comprehensively describing the mathematical and physical fundamentals of musical sound generation and propagation.
The complex interplay of physiology and psychology involved in sound and music perception is covered in the following sections, with a particular focus on psychoacoustics and the recently evolved research on embodied music cognition.
In addition, a huge variety of technical applications for professional training, music composition and consumer electronics are presented.
A section on music ethnology completes this comprehensive handbook.
Music theory and philosophy of music are imbedded throughout.
Carefully edited and written by internationally respected experts, it is an invaluable reference resource for professionals and graduate students alike.
