(apologies for cross postings) Dear listmembers Does anyone know of any important articles or books which discuss the issue of musical complexity? I am particularly interested to find papers that debate how musical complexity should be understood at a high theoretical level. For instance, should musical complexity be understood in purely information theoretic terms or in terms of our psychological capacity to predict and remember (e.g. analogous to the way that amplitude differs from perceived loudness)? cheers Tom
