Dear colleagues,
we're delighted to announce that Music and Mental Imagery has now been published, both as a hardback and eBook: routledge.com/9780367352165.
Drawing on perspectives from music psychology, cognitive neuroscience, philosophy, musicology, clinical psychology, and music education, Music and Mental Imagery provides a critical overview of cutting-edge research on the various types of mental imagery associated with music. The four main parts cover an introduction to the different types of mental imagery associated with music such as auditory/musical, visual, kinaesthetic, and multimodal mental imagery; a critical assessment of established and novel ways to measure mental imagery in various musical contexts; coverage of different states of consciousness, all of which are relevant for, and often associated with, mental imagery in music, and a critical overview of applications of mental imagery in health, educational, and performance settings.
To celebrate the publication we invite you to join our online book launch from 4:00-5:30pm (CET) on Tue, 24 Jan 2023. The event will include short invited responses, a conversation with video artist George Barber and a panel discussion with four contributors of the book.
