Proceedings of a May 20-22, 2000 New York Academy of Sciences conference.
This volume explores across disciplines the neurobiological basis for the
creation and appreciation of music. Various papers examine both the
structure and the function of brain pathways involved in the processing of
complex sounds that lead to the perception of music. Evolutionary aspects of
music recognition are examined, and interesting theories of sound
appreciation across cultures are revealed.
