Music Screen-Reading: indicative results from two pilot studies

Abstract

This paper discusses two pilot studies conducted by Lindsay Vickery and Talisha Goh, Screening the Score: Exploring the Potentials and Limitations of Presenting Music Notation on the iPad and Sight - Reading Polyphonic Musical Textures: a Pilot Eye-Movement Study. Vickery’s experiment sought to investigate the activity of the eyes of musicians while performing a variety of notations and score presentation types from a screen. Goh’s experiment explored sight-reading polyphonic keyboard music containing two, three, four and five voices, at a comfortable pace and with a click-track beat.
