Have you ever wondered how good your pitch memory is? We are looking to recruit a select number of musicians and non-musicians for a study on pitch memory, and how instrumental experience affects pitch memory of different timbres. We are especially interested in those whose primary instrument is the clarinet or violin, but all are welcome until we reach our desired number of participants. Your choice to participate in this study and your performance on this task has no effect on any classes you may be enrolled in. No monetary compensation will be provided, though at the end of the study, you will be provided with an idea of how your pitch memory compares to others in your group. During this study, you will be asked to identify whether the first and last notes in multiple series of pitches are of the same pitch. This short, online study will take you only about 20-30 minutes.
