Outline of Final Research Achievements

The music is intended to be constructed by a variety of factors on the time axis expansion. These various elements to make up the music are not only note values, pitch, dynamics, tone parameters but includes accumulation of horizontal / vertical tones (in a broad sense is correlated defined as harmony) and more larger framework of the form. In this research was calculated mathematical consistency of complex musical structure by incorporated structural equation model (covariance structure analysis). Then, it was able to derive a methodology to visualized using path analysis diagram for causal relations of the various factors that are included in music analysis has been said to be difficult.
