Differential Contribution of Frontal and Temporal Cortices to Auditory Change Detection: fMRI and ERP Results (2002, result): “This interpretation is also in line with a recent MEG study demonstrating that the opercular part of the right inferior frontal gyrus specifically responds to violations of a musical expectancy (Maess et al., 2001).”
Bach Speaks: A Cortical "Language-Network" Serves the Processing of Music (2002, methodology): “Moreover, results obtained in the preceding EEG and MEG studies (Koelsch et al., 2000a; Maess et al., 2001; Koelsch et al., 2001) revealed strong involvement of both hemispheres for the processing of harmonically inappropriate chords, although some effects had clear right predominance in the EEG.”
Musical structure is processed in "language" areas of the brain: a possible role for Brodmann Area 47 in temporal coherence (2003, result): “In related work, brain evokedpotentials elicited from the processing of musical chordsequences have been found to be similar to those elicited by spoken language ( Koelsch et al., 2000a, 2000b; 2002; Patel et al., 1998).”
Investigating emotion with music: An fMRI study (2006, result): “Previous imaging studies indicate that music– syntactic processing involves the frontal operculum, especially inferior BA 44 [Janata et al., 2002a; Koelsch, 2005; Koelsch et al., 2005, 2002; Maess et al., 2001; Tillmann et al., 2003], which was also activated in the present study; the Rolandic ope”
Adults and children processing music: An fMRI study (2005, methodology): “Based on previous studies using similar chord sequence paradigms (Koelsch et al., 2002a; Maess et al., 2001; Tillmann et al., 2003), we expected that the musical irregularities would activate inferior frontolateral cortex, supratemporal cortex (both anterior and posterior STG), as well as the supe”
Interaction between Syntax Processing in Language and in Music: An ERP Study (2005, methodology): “Physically deviant tones presented in a series of standard tones are known to elicit a mismatch negativity (MMN, Schröger, 1998; Näätänen, 1992).”
