Re: music listening styles

Hello Chris,

There is a thought-provoking paper on listening strategies by FranÃois Delalande, 1998: 'Music Analysis and Reception Behaviours' in Journal of New Music Research, Vol. 27 (1-2), pp. 13-66. Delalande analyses in detail the responses of several listeners to a piece by Pierre Henry. He discusses three most prominent types of listening behaviours, including the modes you propose. A good read.

Best,

Aki

Subject: [AUDITORY] music listening styles

Hi,

We are looking for research on the effect of "listening styles"
(listening modes, listening strategies...) on the effect of music on the
listener. How does the "impact" of music change if one listens to it
"emotionally" versus if one listens to it "analytically", or anything of
that kind. Any hint (even far fetched) welcome...

Best,
Chris
