... to ground these schemas in a cognitive, listener-oriented framework, the article also introduces the concept of metrical orientation. Metrical orientation involves heard measures, measures that are organizationally similar to notated measures but that may differ from the notated measures of the score...

...Channan Willner Hemiolas are by definition metrically dissonant, in durational disagreement with the notated meter. But when extended metrical shifts (known also as afterbeats or afterbeat displacement ) displace a composition in part or in whole to the right (in order to emphasize the closing beat...

...Alan Dodson This is an analytical study on metrical structure in Chopin's Mazurka op. 17/4 (complete) and excerpts from his Mazurkas opp. 59/2 and 63/3, and on the effects of expressive details in Paderewski's recordings upon that structure. The methodology is based mainly on Harald Krebs's theory...

...Matthew Bell Abstract Much of Tchaikovsky's music for the ballets Sleeping Beauty and Nutcracker exhibits what Harald Krebs calls metrical dissonance : the juxtaposition or superimposition of noncoincident pulses and rhythmic patterns. This article shows how the dances of the composer's...

...Daphne Leong Building upon recent geometric models of metric states by Richard Cohn and Scott Murphy, this article proposes a complementary model that expands the metric states that can be considered, relates states by symmetries , and creates systems of such states. Application of the model...

...Stephen Guerra Pitch spaces such as the circle of fifths model change through time in a composition, recording, or improvisation. Metric spaces theorized over the past twenty years do the same for changes (notated or not) in meter. Trajectories in either space and their potentially reinforcing...

...Scott Murphy The metric cube is a kind of graph of meters proposed as a complement to the types of metric spaces that have already been put forth in music-theoretic scholarship, particularly by Richard Cohn. Whereas Cohn's most recent kind of metric space (2001) can compare meters only...

...Rebecca Simpson-Litke Abstract This article examines some of the complex interactions between salsa music and dance by focusing on physical interpretations of specific types of metric ambiguities and disruptions. It explores both the fairly frequent displacement dissonances that arise when...

...Brent Auerbach Tiered polyphony describes segments of music that manifest rhythmic/metric layering (Lester 1986) in the presence of polyphony. This texture, though a hallmark of the baroque era, is capable of generating a variety of musical effects over many style periods. This article establishes...

... by their spectra and located in a harmonic space of all possible chord spectra. Euclidean and angular distance metrics defined on chord spectra correlate strongly with common interval-based similarity measures such as IcVSIM and ANGLE. Thus, we can approximate these common measures of harmonic similarity...

... for keyboard. It turns out that the subject of this fugue is so marked in rhythm and contour that it seems to motivate—and even demand—its own transformation as the fugue unfolds. One consequence of such transformation is a series of metric shifts from triple hypermeter during expositions to duple hypermeter...

... inclusive. This not only systematically eliminates the distortions and inconsistencies that crop up with respect to mixed cardinality csegs but also provides a considerably more nuanced metric for intervallic distances in contour space. Using analytical case studies juxtaposing the two notational systems...
