Long abstract | Theories and methods that investigate aesthetic emotions in music listening have been shaped by certain assumptions concerning the context and function in which such music appreciation takes place. This chapter summarises main understanding and debates in this area and reflects on what changes in approach are required for psychological research to be sensitive and more applicable to a variety of musical practices. We propose an embodied and dynamic approach to aesthetic emotions, built on the bodily, cognitive, and functional affordances of music. We argue that such an approach will help define a flexible framework for cross-cultural research, reducing reliance on implicit assumptions of (passive) aesthetic contemplation, and instead advancing the notions of situated goals and active listening. Aesthetic emotions may be distinguished from everyday emotions by functional context, close interaction with musical properties, and the functions and engagements afforded by music that listeners value and experience as meaningful. |

Thomas M. Lennie
(author)Thomas M. Lennie, PhD is Assistant Professor of Psychology within the Department of Philosophy and Psychology at the American University in Bulgaria. His primary focus lies in the cognitive mechanisms of music-induced emotional episodes. He was awarded his PhD in Music Cognition from Durham University (UK) in 2023, fully-funded by Northern Bridge Doctoral Training Programe. His recent contributions to the field assess the role of goal-directed appraisal mechanisms in shaping musical affect across diverse contexts (Lennie & Eerola, 2022). He is currently in the process of establishing the first music psychology lab in Bulgaria, promoting research into music psychology on the Balkans.
