Document Summary

Musi 3702: introduction to the acoustics and psychoacoustics of music. Encoded in the brain for permanent storage. Enhancing the transfer of musical memory content from short-term to long-term memory: practice/repetition, significance/meaning, lack of interference, chunking. A holding tank whereby a sound is not fully processed until the following sound is heard. Some have said that audiation is to music what analogous to thinking is to language. Both left and right cerebral hemispheres are responsible for different components of musical memory. The left hemisphere is of primary importance for musical representation in long term memory, whereas the right hemisphere appears to be of primary importance for accessing this memory. Another important finding was reported by sampson and zatorre (1991). They found problems with memory- recognition for verbal text (sung or spoken) after a left temporal lobectomy (i. e. , leaving the right intact), but not after a right temporal lobectomy (leaving the left intact)
