Re: Music transcription

[Nick Collins <N.Collins@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ali, 

Not the psychology literature per se, back to computer music, but Steve Hainsworth carried out an informal survey of human transcription tactics for his PhD thesis to compare these with automated approaches. 

The PDF of the thesis is available here under the cached PDF: http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.5.9579 

John Sloboda does discuss Mozart's Miserere case, and you might also explore literature on musical savants.  

best,
Nick
