Analysis of the Constructive Functions of Notated and Acoustic Silences in Béla Bartók’s Fifth String
Quartet, First Movement, Allegro
Bohdan Syroyid
University of Leuven, Belgium; bohdan.syroyid@kuleuven.be
Background
Most analyses of Bartók’s Fifth String Quartet concentrate primarily on the thematic and harmonic relationships of various
themes that are part of a palindromic sonata form (see Bates, 1986; Klefstad, 2000). However, this piece has a striking and
characteristic silence usage that is worthy of a deeper examination. For this, both score and audio recordings will be
examined revisiting some of the silence theories of Braman (1956), Dougherty (1979), Gaudibert (1995), Margulis (2007)
and Yin Lo (2015).
Aims
The main goal is to explore the underlying musical processes that surround notated and acoustic silences in the first
movement of Bartok’s Fifth String Quartet. Notated silences are limited to rests that appear simultaneously in all four parts.
Acoustic silences are examined through the visualization of the waveform of two recordings and the identification of regions
with low amplitude.
Main Contribution
The dramatic opening silences of Bartók’s Fifth String Quartet present an intermittent monophonic texture, developed in a
contrapuntal manner in the first theme. These four bars are viewed by Klefstad (2000) as a framework theme that
reappears eight times in the movement (accounting for 66 out of 80 notated silences). The repetition of this theme
suggests a retrodictive silence situation. In these framing themes, silence is in motion and it actively contributes to various
forms of rhythmic manipulations, namely: symmetry (non-retrogradable rhythms), transformation, inversion, fragmentation,
and expansion. In contrast, 11 notated silences appear in the development and the coda and seem to be associated with
the disintegration of theme C. In addition, only 3 notated silences stand alone and perform a normative structural function,
delineating sectional edges and releasing the accumulated tension. A similar function can be found in the silences situated
at the outer edges of the framing themes. The comparative analysis shows a strong correlation between acoustic and
notated silences. However, the softer passages of both themes C are only manifested as acoustic and dynamic silences.
Implications
This study reveals that Bartók’s silence usage has dynamic, rhythmic and structural implications. Currently, there are
scarce analytical studies based on musical silence, and none were found on Bartók. It is hoped to progressively reverse
this trend shedding some more light on the importance of musical silence as a constructive element of music.

Welcome to ICMPC15/ESCOM10!
It is my pleasure to welcome all active and passiveparticipants at all four hubs and
elsewhere to this pioneering, semi-virtual, multi-hub, global conference. We are
part of a long and successful tradition of ICMPCs, beginning in 1989, every two
years since 1992; also the ESCOM conference, every three years since 1994. The
combined ICMPC/ESCOM has happened every six years since 1994. Ours is the
first conference in our field to happen on different continents simultaneously with a
24-hour program.
The organizing committees at all hubs hope that conferences of this kind will
become the norm, allowing us to achieve several goals simultaneously: increase
global participation, lower financial barriers, increase cultural diversity, improve
validity of research content, and work toward a better future for our discipline and
for humanity by reducing emissions. In these ways, we can overcome historical and
future injustices, and inspire colleagues in other disciplines.
Cultural diversity has been an ICMPC hallmark from the start. The first conference
was in Japan rather than North America or Europe, encouraging equal participation
by participants from three continents. This conference adds a fourth: South
America. In future, I hope that Asian and African hubs can be added. ICMPC is also
about disciplinary diversity: although we focus on sciences (psychology,
neuroscience, computer science), we also promote interactions with humanities
(history, ethnomusicology, music theory) and practically oriented disciplines
(performance, composition, therapy, medicine, education).
On behalf of the ESCOM executive council and the conference organizing
committees at all hubs: Enjoy the conference, learn new things, make new
contacts, and have a great time, wherever you are. If you need help of any kind,
don’t hesitate to ask a member of your local organizing committee or student
support team.

Welcome from the ICMPC15/ESCOM10 co-organizer
Welcome to the 15th International Conference on Music Perception and Cognition
and the 10th triennial conference of the European Society for the Cognitive
Sciences of Music in Graz, La Plata, Montreal, and Sydney! We are honoured to
welcome 787 participants from 54 different countries from all around the globe from Island to South Africa, from Chile to Taiwan, and all countries in between.
The impressive number of paper and poster sessions covers a wide range of
subjects from movement, flow, and expression to health, violence, and beyond.
This is complemented by workshops and demonstrations that offer practical
applications and show upcoming trends. The symposia focus on diverse topics
from visual imagery to hearing impairment.
Another highlight are the keynotes from four different hubs, entitled “Riddles of
time: Rhythm and temporal structure in language and music” by Simone Falk,
“Moved by music: The role of empathy and social cognition in music-induced
emotions” by Jonna Vuoskoski, “The neuroscience of musical entrainment: insights
from EEG frequency-tagging” by Sylvie Nozaradan, and “Variability, complexity and
gender in musical cultures: Insights from experiments with epistemological waste”
presented by Luiz Naveda.
For the first time a new platform for networking is introduced. Please take
advantage of the possibility to connect with researchers around the globe. This
way, you can continue the experience of the conference even when you are back
home, watch the talks you have missed during the conference and discuss with
other researchers through the platform.
I would like to express my sincere thanks to all the hub organizers and their teams
and all the student assistants and volunteers for their extraordinary work, especially
the student assistants Nils Meyer-Kahlen, Katharina Pollack, Magdalena Ramsey,
Theresa Schallmoser, and Sandra Tanzmeister. I would also like to thank the
reviewers of abstract submissions for their helpful suggestions and evaluations.
And I especially want to thank you – for taking part in this exciting new experience!

Welcome from the ICMPC Executive Committee
I would like to warmly welcome all participants to the 15th International
Conference on Music Perception and Cognition. I would also like to acknowledge
members of the Executive Committee of the ICMPC, with special thanks to former
Chair Steve Demorest. The committee worked intensively with Richard and the
local ESCOM committee over a period of many months to refine, finalise and
support this innovative multi-hub model. Thanks to Richard’s vision, this novel
conference structure is certain to raise awareness of climate change and our
individual responsibility for the future of the planet.
Australian researchers are making significant contributions to the field of music
perception and cognition, yet the travel required to attend conferences held on
other continents is both expensive and physically demanding, especially for
students and early career researchers. We are delighted that some of our most
promising young researchers in the field now have the ability to present their work
at the local Australian hub of the ICMPC, and we look forward to productive
interactions with researchers from around the world.

Welcome from the La Plata Hub
On behalf of the organizing committee of La Plata Hub, it is my pleasure to
welcome you all to this exciting global conference.
We are extremely happy to be part of the event, and thank Richard Parncutt and
his terrific team for inviting us to join with Sydney, Montreal and Graz in such an
innovative project. We are also grateful to La Plata University for its full support.
We have been working hard discussing ideas, schedules, technical details, and
socio-cultural topics as diverse as the diversity of our own academic and sociocultural environments. This is precisely the strength of this project, what makes
the joint organization of ICMPC15/ESCOM10 so exciting.
We welcome international researchers from all over the world, in particular our
Latin American partners from Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia, who chose La Plata
as the venue to present their research. During the live and virtual sessions of the
conference, including the “global foyer”, we will learn about many contrasting
research projects and meet many international colleagues.
For some of our young researchers, this is the first time that they will be able to
take part in an international event, thanks to the innovative concept of streaming
communications between hubs. We welcome the keynote presenter for the La
Plata Hub, Dr. Luiz Naveda from the State University of Mina Gerais, Belo
Horizonte, Brazil, who will present his research on dance, music, gender, and
culture.
I thank my co-organizers Joaquin Blas Perez and Alejandro Pereira Ghiena, my
colleague Favio Shifres for his wise advice, and the members of the organizing
committee Matías Tanco, María Marchiano, Sebastián Castro (our genious
technician), Mónica Valles, Demián Alimenti Bel, Camila Beltramone, Juan
Pissinis, Mariano Guzmán, and Sofía Uzal for the happy time we shared in our lab
preparing this conference.
You can contact any of us during the week of the event to ask for help of any kind.
Enjoy the conference!

Welcome from the Sydney hub
The Sydney hub of ICMPC is proud to be part of this world first in conferencing,
an international music psychology conference across four locations around the
globe, glued together by digital technologies. I echo the welcomes from the other
hubs, and thank them all for their support of the project, and above all the
herculean effort of the Graz team, led by Nils Meyer-Kahlen, Sabrina Sattmann,
and the visionary, project-brain-parent Richard Parncutt. In addition to a
fascinating local and international program, we are thrilled to welcome the keynote
presenter for the Sydney Hub, Dr. Sylvie Nozaradan from Western Sydney
University who is sharing her latest, innovative research on the brain and
synchronization.
With pleasure we welcome participants from around Australia, countries that are
part of the Asia-Pacific Society for the Cognitive Sciences of Music (APSCOM)
and beyond. We also have opportunity for spontaneous contact with the
hundreds of other delegates through our ‘global foyer’, an idea developed at the
Global Arts and Psychology Seminar in 2017, where during the world
synchronized coffee breaks, you will be able to ‘digitally bump into’ someone at
another hub and start up or continue a conversation.
The Sydney hub has been blessed with volunteers, staff and a local committee
who are committed to making the new-format conference work. We also thank
the UNSW Arts and Social Science Faculty (A&SS) and School of the Arts and
Media (SAM);; the Graz hub; ESCOM; and the Australian Music Psychology
Society (AMPS): UNSW International, Marketing and Communications; Technical
Resources Centre, A&SS; Creative Practice Lab in SAM; and UNSW Hospitality.
Over 18 months of preparation and investment; but still no doubt a few thrills and
spills to come, and in that spirit, the Sydney hub organizing committee looks
forward to working with you all to make this a memorable conference, and warmly
welcomes all delegates around the world.
