Abstract

Reviews the book, Objective Analysis of Musical Performance: Studies in the Psychology of Music: Volume IV , edited by C. E. Seashore (1936). This fourth volume in the University of Iowa Studies in the Psychology of Music contains ten papers devoted to analyzing and measuring the musical performance of artists in an attempt to understand their artistry and the nature of musical esthetics. Eventually it is hoped that further studies in this field will disclose the main laws of musical esthetics and that norms of artistic performance will be established.
