Salley Presents at MASMT Meeting and UNBC

On Friday, March 29, Coordinator of Music Theory and Associate Professor of Music Theory Keith Salley, Ph.D., presented “Schoenberg and Semantic Satiation: Exploring the Psycholinguistics of Serialism” at the annual meeting of the Mid-Atlantic Society for Music Theory.

At the meeting, held at the University of Northern British Columbia (UNBC), Dr. Salley addressed the issue of repetition in serialized/combinatorial contexts by relating it to the psycholinguistic phenomena of semantic satiation and the verbal transformational effect, deftly navigating the well-known (but largely misunderstood) musico-linguistic metaphor.
