> asked what makes each musical era distinctive: timbre Anyone interested in this might enjoy the paper about the "Scanning the Dial" experiment. (It's about contemporary music rather than historical eras, but the idea is related) https://www.researchgate.net/publication/248906443_Scanning_... The punchline is that listeners can typically assign a genre to a recording after hearing a single quarter-of-a-second clip, but the paper is worth reading for its notes on genre and timbre in general. |
