Passarotto, Edoardo and De Stefani, Matteo and Formaggio, Emanuela and Piccione, Francesco and Rubega, Maria and Soravia, Vincenzo and Masiero, Stefano (2025) BRAIN PROCESSING OF MUSIC FEATURES IN MUSICIANS AND NON-MUSICIANS: A PILOT STUDY. [Data Collection]

Collection description

The present repository presents the data analyzed in the study "Brain processing of musical features in musicians and non-musicians: a pilot study" by Passarotto et al. (in review). It contains electroencephalographic data from five pianists (P), five violinists (V), and five non-musicians (NM) recorded while listening to four audio recordings (track). Nine musical features from the audio recordings are also reported. EEG data was recorded using a 32-channel system and relative power (EEG_relative_power) in the delta [1-4] Hz, theta [4.5-7.5] Hz, alpha [8-12] Hz and beta [13-30] Hz bands were computed (EEG_band) for each channel (EEG_ch). The database is provided in long-format. For further details, see the readme.txt file.
