Dividing piano players’ proficiency processes of music pieces into three categories of early, middle and final stages, we have studied about the difference and characteristics of their perception for sonic environment and control of performance behaviour at each stage.In our previous studies, it has been shown that we could measure the difference and characteristics of their “perception and behaviour control” on performance mainly at the early and the final stages in brain activity, using NIRS (Near-infrared spectroscopy) method and having some supplementary interviews after the experiments.Moreover in this paper, we carried out experiments about players’ “perception and behavior control” on performance at the two stages under some different reverberation time sonic fields using same method.We also made sure of the cognition of the players’ performances by having some supplementary interviews after the performance experiments.As a result, we could obtain that players’ “perception and behavior control” on performance is being influenced from the condition of reverberation time difference of sonic field.
