Description

Music induces a wide range of emotions. However, the influence of physiological<br> functions on musical emotions needs further theoretical considerations. This paper<br> summarizes the physical and physiological functions that are related to musical emo-<br>tions, and proposes a model for the embodied communication of musical emotions based<br> on a discussion on the transmission of musical emotions across people by sharing move-<br>ments and gestures. In this model, human with musical emotion is represented with<br> (1) the interfaces of perception and expression (senses, movements, facial and vocal<br> expressions), (2) an internal system of neural activities including the mirror system<br> and the hormonal secretion system that handles responses to musical activities, and<br> (3) the musical emotion that is enclosed in the internal system. Using this model, mu-<br>sic is the medium for transmitting emotions, and communication of musical emotions<br> is the communication of internal emotions through music and perception/expression<br> interfaces. Finally, we will discuss which aspect in music functions to encourage the<br> communication of musical emotions by humans.
