Description: |
her, collaborate to show how our brains and music work in harmony. They consider music in all the ways we encounter it, teaching, learning, practicing, listening, composing, improvising, and performing-in terms of neuroscience as well as music pedagogy, showing how the brain functions and even changes in the process.
The authors draw on leading behavioral, cellular, and molecular neuroscience research as well as surveys of more than a hundred musical people. It provides new perspectives on learning to play, teaching, how to practice and perform, the ways we react to music, and why the brain benefits from musical experiences.
Written for both musical and nonmusical people, including newcomers to brain science, this book is a lively and easy-to-read exploration of the neuroscience of music and its significance in our lives. |
