An advancement and wide use of portable multimedia devices make it easy to spread digital sound source, enabling users to use portable multimedia devices and search and enjoy digital sound sources and related contents. In opposition the off-line musical service market with CD stagnates gradually and in the crisis where the off-line musical service market vanishes away. In this paper, we propose the mobile music album information retrieval system which combines the barcode and a cellular phone musical service. To get digital sound sources and related information from music albums, the proposed retrieval system uses one-dimensional barcodes attached to music albums and obtains information on related albums from the sound source servers. Also, to reflect user preferences in search results, the system uses search frequency by music album, and searches albums in music genres selected by users in the order of the recent preference. The proposed mobile music album retrieval system is implemented on the basis of WIPI, and is now providing pilot services.

This paper describes design and implementation of the system that is used to efficiently retrieve music information at a digital music library. Unlike typical music information retrieval systems, this system allows the user to sing a part of the melody through the microphone which he/she wants to find rather than using title, composer or the subject catalog to search. The system then recognizes the musical notes information through the signal processing of the sounds of the entered melody, and the intervals contour is created based on this information and used as a search pattern. By running the proposed notes string search algorithm that uses the musical notes information processed with the user input, and it produces the approximate search results. Therefore, users are able to retrieve and appreciate the music whenever he/she can sing any portion of the desired music.

In essence, Musical theatre is a multimedia show, so when you listen to musical numbers, you will experience it through multiple senses. Therefore, in order to analyze musical numbers, emphasis should be placed on its interaction with various media such as lyrics, dance, and theatre, which have a direct association with the music. Through the Conceptual Blending Theory, which can comprehensively consider the combination of text and music, the combination of movement and music, and the combination of visual elements and music, this study analyzes the music of Musical . By exploring the result of interaction between lyrics and music, the interaction between choreography and music, and the interaction between stage and music, the artistry and intrinsic value of the work can be proved. In addition, we can discover the process and system of integrated interpretation through music analysis applying Conceptual Blending Theory. Therefore, Conceptual Blending Theory has sufficient utility as a methodology for music analysis of musical theatre.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of listening to music during musical activities on children's development of tone recognition and sense of rhythm. The subjects were total sixty 4-years-olds from two classes of thirty. The children were divided into two groups, experimental and control. Before the experimental procedures, a pre-test was taken to evaluate the level of tone recognition and sense of rhythm of the children. Cordon's 'Audie' was employed and used to measure the difference of tone recognition and sense of rhythm. Then, the activity of listening to music was applied to the experimental group for ten weeks. For the experimental group, the musical activity was selected based on the themes of our tfe which was related to the weekly and yearly teaching plan. One the other hand, no musical activity was provided for the control group. After the experiment, a post-test was carried out using the same methodology of pre-test. Data were analysed by ANCOVA test. Results showed that there was a statistically significant difference in the development of tone recognition and sense of rhythm between the experimental group and the control group.

The purpose of this survey was to examine the trend, purpose, and overall needs on the use of music by the baby boomer generation. On 87 participants aged from 57 to 66 living in five cities of Korea, online and offline surveys were conducted. As a result, first, the baby boomer generation mostly listened to popular music on their mobile phones when taking a rest alone, and it has been confirmed that the purpose of music use was for happiness, hobby, confidence, and fulfillment in order. Second, there was shown that the baby boomer generation hope to do singing and lyric-discussion in a club setting. Third, for the purpose of music use according to genders, there was found that female participants more significantly focused on volunteering than male. It is meaningful that this study could provide basic data to develop music programs considering characteristics of the baby boomer generation.

This review was conducted to identify the research trends in music intervention studies with elderly patients with dementia. Korean- and English-written studies on music intervention for this population were searched and analyzed. Seventeen studies were included in the final analysis. The results showed that behavioral and psychological symptoms were the main dependent variables. In terms of the type of music intervention employed, interventions requiring the patient's active participation in producing music were more common than interventions that required the patient to only listen to music. The majority of studies provided live music, selected music that was familiar to and preferred by the patient, and utilized rhythm-based performance activities. In the studies using active music production as the intervention, the participants were asked to express the emotions evoked by group instrument playing or singing along with music, which doesn't reflect the functional limitations (e.g., cognitive impairment) of elderly patients with moderate to severe dementia. The results of this review point to the need in the field to develop music intervention programs for the elderly with moderate to severe dementia that meaningfully engage these patients in music-related behaviors that target their specific symptomology.

The purpose of this study was to explore the use of music for alleviating PTSD symptoms among North Korean resettlers. Out of 80 initial responses from North Korean resettlers living in Seoul metropolitan area, 78 surveys were analyzed. The questionnaire focused on traumatic events encountered, PTSD symptoms experienced, and the use of music in relation to the symptoms. The analysis revealed that all participants had been exposed to traumatic events either directly or indirectly, and 32% of the responders have experienced at least one of the PTSD symptoms in the last one month. Most of the participants perceived music to be necessary in everyday life as well as for managing PTSD related symptoms. On the other hand, only 38% actually use music in everyday life whereas 75% use music for managing PTSD symptoms. They mainly listen to music but also engage in singing, utilize music from both North and South Korea, and they perceive the most important reason for using music to be for emotional comfort and transition. The analysis provides additional information that are valuable for the therapeutic use of music for North Korean resettlers living with PTSD symptoms.

최근에는 산업장 근로자나 노인에게 주로 발생되던 청력손실이 청소년에까지 점차 확대되면서 청소년의 청력뿐 아니라 청소년의 청력에 영향을 미치는 여러 환경 및 요인에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 그 중 외국어 공부나 음악감상용으로 청소년들 사이에 생활필수품처럼 널리 이용되고 있는 휴대용 카세트가 청소년의 소음성 난청원으로 매우 위험하다는 연구결과가 제시되어 학부모, 교사, 전문가에 의해 청소년 청력상태에 대한 조사와 청력손실을 유발하는 위험요인에 대해 많은 연구가 실시되었다. 청소년기에 취미/오락활동, 가정내 기계 기구, 음악, 교통 등의 소음에 상시적으로 노출될 수 있다. 직업적으로 소음에 노출된 적이 없는 청소년에게서 소음성 난청이 발생할 수 있다는 연구결과가 나오고 있는데, 청소년의 소음성 난청은 큰 소리를 내는 장난감과 개인용 음향기기, 콘서트장, 밴드활동 등의 음악과 관련이 있으며 이외에 모터사이클, 모터 스포츠 등의 레저 활동과 관련이 있다. 이러한 소음은 작업장 소음에 의한 초기 청력손실처럼 3~6 kHz 역의 청력손실을 특징적으로 보여준다. 이 글에서는 주요 취미활동과 관련하여 MP3 등 개인용 음향기기와 헤드셋 착용 근로자의 소음 노출 수준과 이에 따른 청력영향을 살펴보고, 소음저감방법에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

본 논문은 음원 메타데이터 임베딩 방법론을 기반으로 새로운 음원 추천 방법을 제안한다. 사용자 행동 데이터를 활용한 개인 맞춤형 음악 추천 모델은 신규 사용자의 데이터가 부족할 경우, 적절한 추천이 어려운 콜드스타트 현상을 초래할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 플레이리스트의 음원 메타데이터를 Song sentence 로 구성하고, 고차원 벡터 공간에 임베딩하여 유사도를 계산한 추천 알고리즘을 구축한다. 사용자 행동 데이터가 아닌 음원의 자체적인 정보에 근거하기 때문에 콜드 스타트 현상을 보완하여 사용자에게 편리한 음악 감상 경험을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
