"abstract": "The aim of this paper is to examine the parallelism between tonal transitions and musical note transitions in Thai pop songs based on the data from 30 current pop songs. The results suggest that there is a statistically significant parallelism between tonal transitions and musical note transitions. Interestingly, the results show that both contour tones, RISING and FALLING, typically pattern with HIGH with respect to the mapping between tonal transitions and note transitions. Nevertheless, when two FALLING occur consecutively, the offset of the second one is used for mapping. Our results seem to find further support for decomposability of contour tones in Thai. Furthermore, they suggest that Thai pop music composition does not strive to maximize parallel transitions but prefer to avoid opposing transitions.",

"text": "Pitch is an important element in both language and music. In languages, pitch is used to convey different levels of meaning, e.g. lexical, sentential, attitudinal, emotional etc. In music, pitch serves the melodic structure, whether played on instruments or sung by voice, in order to express meaning to the listener. However, pitch in language and music differs with respect to how it is treated. While pitch in language is treated as a relative difference, pitch in music is treated as an absolute difference. Given their similarity and difference, it is important for our understanding of human cognition to examine the relationship between pitch in language and music. Of crucial relevance are languages that use patterns of relative pitch to convey lexical contrast. It is a puzzle how tonal languages relate their lexical tones to musical melody, which is made up of patterns of absolute pitch played on instruments or sung.",

To answer this question, the Thai language is a great case study because its five tones, shown in Table 1 , have been studied quite extensively both in terms of acoustics, perception, as well as phonology.

"text": "Mapping between lexical tones and musical notes is one of the topics that have been widely studied in the past decade. While a few studies compare lexical tones to the absolute pitch of musical notes (Yung, 1983; Chao, 1956) , some have investigated parallelism between tonal transitions and melodic transitions, i.e. mapping between the directions of adjacent note transitions and adjacent syllable transitions (Schellenberg, 2009; Wee, 2007; Ho, 2006; Baart, 2004; Wong and Diehl, 2002; Agawu, 1988) .In our opinion, the latter method seems to be a more effective way to investigate the mapping between lexical tones and musical notes because it does not compare absolute pitch with relative pitch. Since pitch is treated as a relative difference in language but as an absolute difference in music, investigating mapping between individual tones and individual notes may miss crucial generalizations. It is thus more reasonable to examine pitch in both language and music in terms of relative pitch difference by comparing the directions between successive lexical tones and successive musical notes.",

"text": "Firstly, this study offers further evidence in support of decomposability of Thai contour tones. In the case of RISING, our study found that the tonal offset has to be referred to in the tone-melody mapping. This suggests that RISING is composed of L followed by H rather than being an atomic unit. In the case of FALLING, our study showed that the tonal onset of FALLING in Thai normally has to be referred, confirming Ho\"s observation that the onset is the more important element or headship of FALLING in tone-melody mapping. Nevertheless, from our results, not only is FALLING\"s tonal onset important, but also its tonal offset is relevant for the mapping. To illustrate, when two FALLING occur consecutively, the offset of the second one is used for mapping. This fact also suggests that FALLING is composed of level tones (H followed by L) rather than being a unitary unit. From the phonological perspective, many phonologists, e.g. Gandour (1974a) , Yip (1982) and Mor\u00e9n and Zsiga (2006) , argue convincingly that contour tones in Thai are in fact made up of sequences of H and L. In other words, FALLING and RISING can be represented as [HL] and [LH] respectively. Therefore, our results lend further support for decomposability of contour tones in Thai.",

"text": "Secondly, non-opposing transitions are acceptable in Thai pop music. As seen from a previous section, non-opposing transitions occur more often than opposing transitions at statistically significant levels. More specifically, when tone pairs with identical first and second members occur successively, although they tend to map with musical level transition, the percentage of mapping with musical ascending and descending transitions is close to that of level transitions. In other words, Thai pop music composition does not strive to maximize parallel transitions but tries to avoid opposing ones. The results should be further tested by perception studies in the future.",

"text": "Finally, some additional factors should be studied in order to obtain a clearer picture of parallelism. To elaborate, the greater degree of parallelism might occur if we control for such factors as the note value and word stress. For note value, parallel transition tended to map with the note which contained the most prominent beat in the phrase of the songs. Furthermore, we observed most of FALLING was mapped with stressed grammatical words. For example, words like /m\u00e2j/ \"not\", /k / \"also\", /th\u00ee: /\"REL\", y\u00ee\u014b and t \u014b \"must\" occurred frequently in our data and created opposing transitions. Excluding grammatical words and unstressed words might yield a lower percentage of opposing transitions. To conclude, in future studies, factors like stress, note value and grammatical word status should be also controlled for clearer results.",

To illustrate, both RISING and FALLING tones pattern with HIGH. Moreover, when two FALLINGs occur consecutively, the offset of the second FALLING is used for mapping. The results also",
