The current paper investigates the influence that variations in musical presentations have on perceived emotions. Especially variations of tempo, dynamics, interval distributions, mode and tonal strength are taken into consideration. Two empirical studies will be discussed to explore the question. The first study examines the influence of interval distribution, mode and tonal strength on perceived emotions. The findings of this study support the idea that the expression of a particular emotion is associated with a distinct pattern of interval occurrences. Study two investigates the influence of variations of tempo and dynamics on perceived emotions. The findings of study two show that variations in dynamics have an effect on the expressiveness of emotions. Hence, the results of these two studies give an insight on which components of musical presentations influence the perceived emotions of the listener.
