The Geneva Emotional Music Scale (GEMS; Zentner, Grandjean, & Scherer, 2008) is the first domain-specific model of emotion specifically developed to measure musically evoked subjective feelings of emotion (particularly in live performances). The scale consists of a list of 45 emotion terms pertaining to nine emotion factors or categories, describing a pervasive universe of feelings of emotion frequently experienced while listening to music (particularly in live performances). In this paper, we highlight and address two potential limitations of the GEMS. The first one is related to the fact that the GEMS comprises a high number of elements to be rated, an aspect that creates many difficulties in fieldwork studies where a rapid assessment is often necessary. The second, is the extent to which the GEMS may be consistently used to discern the emotions experienced while listening to music genres differing significantly from those that led to its development (especially due to an overrepresentation of classical music performances).
