SUBJECTIVE PERCEPTION OF MUSIC GENRES IN THE FIELD OF MUSIC INFORMATION RETRIEVAL SYSTEMS

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to evaluate the relationship between perception of music genres and subjective features of music that can be assigned to them. For this purpose a group of subjective features such as loudness, melody, rhythm, volume, instrumentation was chosen to describe music genres. A group of 30 listeners with normal hearing, ranging from 20 to 40, was created. Each sub-ject participating in listening tests was asked to choose perceptual features of music which best correspond to the given music genre. Music genres were limited to six most typical ones for this group of listeners, i.e.: Classical, Electronic, Jazz, Pop, Rap, Rock. On the basis of the listeners’ answers the statistical V-Cramer test was conducted to find the correlation between evaluated fea-tures and music genres. Identification of potential features that may be important for music recog-nizing can result in a more efficient automatic classification of music genres. Results of the carried out subjective tests and statistical analysis were included.
