Capcom released Street Fighter 5 Arcade Edition on January 17, 2018. It also launched STREET FIGHTER 30th ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION. This product is a compilation of 12 of the Street Fighter series. The Street Fighter series was refocus by this work. In terms of game musical, Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter V almost used the Street Fighter II's melody. This means that the theme music of each character of Street Fighter 2 has a great influence on the sequel. Therefore, it is expected that analyzing the theme music of the original Street Fighter II will inspire game music composers. As a result of studying series of Street Fighter, the difference of form and genre was remarkable.

From the viewpoint of that music melody has the similar features to time-series data, music melody is transformed to a time-series data with normalization and corrections and the similarity between melodies is defined as the Euclidean distance between the transformed time-series data. Then, based the similarity between melodies of a music object, melodies are clustered and the representative of each cluster is extracted as one of theme melodies for the music. To construct the theme melody index, a theme melody is represented as a point of the multidimensional metric space of M-tree. For retrieval of user's query melody, the query melody is also transformed into a time-series data by the same way of indexing phase. To retrieve the similar melodies to the query melody given by user from the theme melody index the range query search algorithm is used. By the implementation of the prototype system using the proposed theme melody index we show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

This study explored the role and characteristics of music that contributed to experiences of catharsis in music. An empirical phenomenological study was conducted to explore catharsis with 12 adults. Phenomenological reduction, change of attitude, literature interpretation, and hermeneutic circle were used for data collection and analysis. As a result, three categories, five themes, and 11 sub-themes were identified. The first category, here and now in music consisted of two themes: aesthetic experiences and expansion of musical novelty. The second category, inner connection through music consisted of one theme, re-experience of internal emotions. The third category, immersion and engagement in music consisted of two themes: ventilating or deepening of emotions and internal dynamics. Based on these results, the cathartic characteristics of music are discussed. First, the aesthetics and novelty of music kept participants fully stay in music. Second, music induced a re-experiencing of emotions by triggering memories or stimulating unresolved emotions. Third, the elements of music promoted emotional ventilation, deepening, and internal dynamics. This study is meaningful because it qualitatively examined the roles and characteristics of music that contribute to cathartic experience in the general adult population.

본 논문에서는 1940년대 헐리웃 영화 <로라>의 특정 시퀀스를 분석함으로써 영화의 극적 요구를 음악적 어휘로 전환시키는 데 있어 작곡가들이 어떤 방식으로 작곡 기법을 적용하는가를 고찰하였다. 한개의 시퀀스를 장면 별로 나누어 고찰한 결과, 일관된 주제의 성격과 그 주제가 내포한 음악적 동기의 반복과 변형, 주제의 중단과 생략, 시종일관 모호한 조성적 구조 등의 음악적 기법이 도출된다.

In this paper, an automatic construction method of theme melody index for large music database and an associative content-based music retrieval mechanism in which the constructed theme melody index is mainly used to improve the users' response time are proposed. First, the system automatically extracted the theme melody from a music file by the graphical clustering algorithm based on the similarities between motifs of the music. To place an extracted theme melody into the metric space of M-tree, we chose the average length variation and the average pitch variation of the theme melody as the major features. Moreover, we added the pitch signature and length signature which summarize the pitch variation pattern and the length variation pattern of a theme melody, respectively, to increase the precision of retrieval results. We also proposed the associative content-based music retrieval mechanism in which the k-nearest neighborhood searching and the range searching algorithms of M-tree are used to select the similar melodies to user's query melody from the theme melody index. To improve the users' satisfaction, the proposed retrieval mechanism includes ranking and user's relevance feedback functions. Also, we implemented the proposed mechanisms as the essential components of content-based music retrieval systems to verify the usefulness.

The purpose of this study was to explore and better understand special education music teachers' perceptions of their music curriculum. For this purpose, we conducted a focus group interview with seven special education music teachers. During the interview, four major themes and 14 sub-themes were identified. The main themes were the following: (a) types of applied activities and the goals of music classes (e.g., activities to be applied in various ways depending on the characteristics of the disability and intended outcome), (b) difficulty in implementing the music curriculum (e.g., lack of fit between textbook and students' chronological ages, lack of time and focus, self-evaluation of performance as a music teacher, (c) therapeutic experiences during music classes (e.g., expectation for positive effects through music therapy, joy of witnessing changes in students, and sense of togetherness), and (d) obstacles to the therapeutic approach of music classes and need for support (e.g., lack of professional knowledge regarding therapeutic approaches and problems with administrators and school environment). Based on these results, problems in implementing the music therapy approach as part of the music curriculum in special education schools are discussed and practical solutions for educators are offered.

음악에서 동기는 독립성을 지니는 최소 단위이며, 저작권 검사의 단위로 이용된다 따라서, 한 음악에서 약간의 변화를 가지고 반복되는 주제선율을 추출하거나, 다른 음악간의 유사도를 측정하는데 유사도 계산은 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 비교되는 동기의 선율정보를 음 길이와 음높이가 함께 고려되는 시계열 데이타로 변환하고, cosine measure를 이용하여 동기간의 유사도를 계산한다. 시계열 데이타에서 유사도 계산으로 사용되는 유클리드 거리함수 대신 cosine measure를 이용한 경우, 공간상의 거리 합대신 변화 방향이 반영됨으로써 비교되는 동기간의 유사도를 정확하게 계산한다. 본 논문에서 제안된 동기간의 유사도 계산은 내용 기반 음악 검색에서 색인으로 사용되는 주제선율을 추출하거나, 다른 음악의 동기간의 유사성을 비교하는데 이용될 수 있다.

애니메이션 영화에 있어서 음악은 영화의 예술적 퀄리티를 향상시키는 도구가 되었다. 본 논문은 애니메이션 영화의 주제곡을 애니메이션에서 어떻게 연기할 수 있는지, 애니메이션 음악의 창작과 서사 간에 서로 밀접한 기능과 관계를 탐구한다. 이를 위한 연구는 첫째, 애니메이션과 음악에 대한 이론적인 고찰하며, 둘째 애니메이션 영화 <코코(Coco)>의 사례 분석하며, 주제곡 위주로 음악의 기능적 특징이 애니메이션으로 어떻게 표현되는지를 다룬다. 이에 주제곡은 주제 내용과 중심인물을 둘러싸고 일정한 음악적 이미지를 형성하고 주제를 심화기능을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있다.

The internship is essential for the music therapy curriculum and affords interns the opportunity to apply their classroom-based knowledge and skills to real-world clinical settings. However, challenges associated with the internship can result in interns undergoing trial-and-error learning, interpersonal conflicts, and intrapersonal difficulties. An experiential music therapy group may be useful in helping interns process these incidents and develop their personal and professional skills. We explored the experiences of music therapy interns participating in therapeutic song writing. In this study, five music interns completed two 4-hour sessions of therapeutic song writing. Following the second session, a group interview was conducted with participants to gather data on their experiences. The interview was recorded, transcribed, and analyzed. Six themes and 18 sub-themes were derived from the data. The six themes were preconceptions of therapeutic song writing, meaningful lyric creation, challenges in song composition, structured experiences during song writing process, development of self-awareness through music, and relational experiences resulting from the group process. Participants were able to incorporate their individual internship experiences into a single song by communicating with group members during the step-by-step process. Participation in therapeutic song writing was found to help music therapy interns identify and process challenges encountered during their internship and further their personal and professional development.

Street fighter II is a game that played an innovative role in the genre of fighting games in the 1990s. There are many elements that this game has played, but I would like to describe the character's background music. Is terms of sound, it is an excellent game with theme music suitable for twelve characters and voice that comes out when using each character's technique. Street Fighter II shows different patterns of background music depending on the charcater's fitness. I analyze it in harmonical way and try to study it form the perspective of music psychology.
