  2. Ear training - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ear_training

    In music, ear training is the study and practice in which musicians learn various aural skills to detect and identify pitches, intervals, melody, chords, rhythms, solfeges, and other basic elements of music, solely by hearing.

  3. Pure-tone audiometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pure-tone_audiometry

    Pure-tone audiometry is the main hearing test used to identify hearing threshold levels of an individual, enabling determination of the degree, type and configuration of a hearing loss [1] [2] and thus providing a basis for diagnosis and management.

    Two types of gamma activity were found by Snyder & Large: induced gamma activity, and evoked gamma activity. Evoked gamma activity was found after the onset of each tone in the rhythm; this activity was found to be phase-locked (peaks and troughs were directly related to the exact onset of the tone) and did not appear when a gap (missed beat ...

  5. Hearing test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hearing_test

    A hearing test provides an evaluation of the sensitivity of a person's sense of hearing and is most often performed by an audiologist using an audiometer. An audiometer is used to determine a person's hearing sensitivity at different frequencies. There are other hearing tests as well, e.g., Weber test and Rinne test.

  6. Tonal memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonal_memory

    The results of the test showed that many factors such as interference tone, degree of tonality, and tonal fitness of comparison tone showed to be a key factor in how listeners performed in the task. [9] Vispoel's research journal described an adaptable test that is for tonal memory. There are three phases that were created in order to get the ...

  7. Equal-loudness contour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal-loudness_contour

    The lowest equal-loudness contour represents the quietest audible tone—the absolute threshold of hearing. The highest contour is the threshold of pain . Churcher and King carried out a second determination in 1937, but their results and Fletcher and Munson's showed considerable discrepancies over parts of the auditory diagram.

  8. Auditory brainstem response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_brainstem_response

    Graph showing a typical Auditory Brainstem Response. The auditory brainstem response (ABR), also called brainstem evoked response audiometry (BERA) or brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) or brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAERs) [1] [2] is an auditory evoked potential extracted from ongoing electrical activity in the brain and recorded via electrodes placed on the scalp.

  9. Musical phrasing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musical_phrasing

    According to Andranik Tangian, [7] analytical phrasing can be quite subjective, the only point is that it should follow a certain logic. For example, Webern’s Klangfarbenmelodie-styled orchestral arrangement of Ricercar from Bach’s Musical offering demonstrates Webern’s analytical phrasing of the theme, which is quite subjective on the one hand but, on the other hand, logically consistent:
