Summary

The realm of auditory cognition is increasingly being recognized as an important new area of psychological and musicological research, however until now no single work has presented the subject in a comprehensive manner for the benefit of researchers and students. To rectify this situation a special tutorial workshop organized by the French Acoustical Society was held at IRCAM, the music research institute founded by Pierre Boulez. Specialists in perceptual organization, memory, attention, music psychology, neurospsychology, and developmental psychology were invited from Europe and North America. This volume presents the materials from their lectures. The book will be useful to advanced students in the cognitive sciences and scientists specializing in many fields as well as in auditory psychology.
