DESCRIPTION:Auditory imagery is more than just mental “replaying” of t
 unes in one’s head. I will review several studies that capture character
 istics of complex and active imagery tasks\, using both behavioral and neu
 roscience approaches. I use behavioral methods to capture people’s abili
 ty to make emotion judgments about both heard and imagined music in real t
 ime. My neuroimaging studies look at the neural correlates of encoding an 
 imagined melody\, anticipating an upcoming tune\, and also imagining tunes
  backwards. Several studies show voxel-by-voxel correlates of neural activ
 ity with self-report of imagery vividness. These studies speak to the ways
  in which musical imagery allows us not just to remember music\, but also 
 how we use those memories to judge temporally changing aspects of the musi
 cal experience.
