ÖgeThe Acceptable Pitch Range(s) For Single Note Repetitions In Music Aptitude Examinations(Institute of Social Sciences, 2017) Köker, Oğul ; Baysal, Ozan ; Music ; MüzikThis thesis grew out from the research questions that emerged from the research done as part of the project “Müzik Algısı Ölçme-Değerlendirme Sınavlarında Ses-İşleme Araçlarının Kullanılabilirliği” [The Applicability of Sound-Processing Tools in the Exams for Music Perception Assessment and Evaluation] funded by TÜBİTAK (Türkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Araştırma Kurumu [The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey]) (Project no.: 215K017). Employing the sounds recorded for the aforementioned project, a computer-based survey was devised to find out the acceptable frequency deviation ranges for the answers given to the single note repetition questions, in which the prospect students of the conservatory try to reproduce a reference pitch played on the piano by their voices. The survey was conducted on faculty members teaching music-related topics at the university, and on people who will be eligible to become faculty members soon, with 35 participants in total. Two major outcomes arose from the data gathered through the survey. Firstly, it was found out that there was indeed an acceptable frequency deviation range for a pitch sung by a prospect student to be considered a successful repetition of the reference pitch played on the piano: The survey participants taking the role of the jury members at conservatory entrance exams accepted performances with a quite big range of frequency deviations from the reference pitch as successful. This range which participants deemed acceptable as successful was approximately 75 cents, distributed unevenly around the absolute correct pitch. For the deviations lower than the absolute correct pitch, the success rates did not fall under the 60 % threshold until the deviations got approximately as big as 45 cents. For the deviations higher than the absolute correct pitch, the success rates did not fall under the 60% threshold until the deviations got approximately as big as 30 cents. Secondly, it was found out that besides the fundamental frequency of the sung note, variables such as pitch envelope, timbre, and octave differences also affect the perceived pitch. This means that at the conservatory entrance exams the jury members’ evaluation of the prospect students might not be fair, since the effects of such variables on the evaluation process are unknown
