TALK: 'A Time and a Place' by Alinka Greasley

Tues February 14th, 5.15pm, University of Leeds
Full Title: A Time and a Place: The role of context in people's uses of and responses to music.
Abstract: Drawing on recent findings from the field of music psychology, this talk will explore the role of social context in shaping individuals' responses to and uses of music. It will provide examples of how people interact with music differently according to the listening situation, concurrent activities, the presence/absence of others, and the level of control they have over the music. The role of general levels of engagement with music will also be discussed. http://www.leeds.ac.uk/music/staff/agr/
