This article will give an in-depth examination of assessing musicality skills in a scientific approach. Musical abilities are often described in words: for example, “She has good relative pitch” or “He has a good feeling for rhythm.” Neither “good,” nor “relative pitch,” nor “feeling for rhythm” is a quality specified through quantitative analysis. Although the value of rhythm in music is often underrated, in this article, I focus on pitch.
To determine scientific values for pitch abilities, a reproducible method to measure those abilities is required. These measurements should be independent of any music system. In other words, non-musicians should be able to take the test, and the grading of the ability should be general enough that we can use the quantified results to measure progress and make comparisons.
Google Dictionary defines pitch as “the quality of a sound governed by the rate of vibrations producing it; the degree of highness or lowness of a tone” and ability as “possession of the means or skill to do something.”
