  1. Musical Expectancy • Definition of expectancy • “Expectancy” refers to the idea that an antecedent event, or set of events, implies or anticipates a subsequent event or set of events • In music, this means that a given musical event or passage implies or anticipates an upcoming musical event or passage • Impact of expectancy formation/realization • Relation between expectancy formation and the apprehension of musical emotion and meaning • Impact of expectancy formation on perceptual and cognitive processing of music

  2. Musical Expectancy ? Basic expectation

  3. Musical Expectancy • Questions about the process of expectancy generation and realization • The factors underlying the formation of musical expectations. What processes give rise to the formation of expectancies, and influence the content of these expectations • The subsequent implications of expectancy realization on musical processing, including basic responses to music, guiding of attention, memory for music, and so on.

  10. The Formation of Musical Expectancies The Implication-Realization Model (Narmour, 1990, 1992) • Registral Direction – small intervals imply melodic continuation in the same direction, whereas large intervals imply a reversal of direction • Intervallic difference – small intervals imply similarly sized intervals whereas large intervals imply smaller intervals • Registral Return – refers to cases in which the second tone of a realized interval reverse pitch direction, thus producing approximate symmetry in patterns • Proximity – there is a general preference for small realized intervals • Closure – closure occurs when a melody changes direction or when a relatively smaller realized interval follows a larger implicative interval
