Aesthetics of musical timing: Culture and expertise affect preferences for isochrony but not synchrony

Have you ever thought about how your cultural background and expertise can influence your appreciation of deviations from synchrony and isochrony in music? A recent study aimed to explore this by manipulating (a)synchrony and (non-)isochrony in musical excerpts from three different styles and examining the responses of participants with varying levels of cultural familiarity and expertise. The results showed that while there was an overall preference for synchrony, preferences for deviations from isochrony were culturally contingent and dependent on expertise. This suggests that our ability to process musical timing relies on both low-level and high-level perception, and that cultural familiarity and expertise play a role in shaping our aesthetic preferences. So, the next time you listen to music, consider how your cultural background and expertise might be influencing your enjoyment of the piece.
