Bibliography Relationships of Speech tone and music
Since Murray Schellenberg's “Bibliography singing in a tone language”, to which I had contributed in the past, went off line almost a year ago I felt a need to fill this gap. Moreover, during my seminar at the University of Vienna “Music and Speech – current methods and results in the light of modern phonetics and phonology” (winter term 2014/2015) quite some more publications could be found on this topic. I have separated musicological publications from a number of introductory linguistic introductions I found helpful learning about tone in language.
Thanks to my students who have assisted bringing together this list: Philipp Höllebauer, Philip Röggla, Fabian Strallhofer.
