Preferences of Undergraduate Music Majors for Sequenced versus Performed Piano Music.
Wapnick, Joel; Rosenquist, Mary-Jo
Journal of Research in Music Education, v39 n2 p152-60 Sum 1991
Presents results of a study of whether undergraduate music majors would prefer sequenced piano music to recordings of actual performances. Finds no significant differences between ratings for technical merit, artistic merit, and overall impression. Finds recording quality ratings higher for sequenced pieces. Suggests that sequencing may allow an untrained person to create technically good music. (DK)
