MUSICAL COGNITION-INTERDISCIPLINARY CONNECTIONS
MUSICAL COGNITION-INTERDISCIPLINARY CONNECTIONS

Summary/Abstract: The twentieth century has allowed many disciplines to reflect on the neurological structures and psychic processes that accompany the studied phenomena: this is also the case of music, which benefits from the help of psychology and neurology in understanding and explaining concrete phenomena related to the artistic act (whether it is composition, interpretation or the perception of the message of the work of art). Research on music cognition aims to understand the nature of listeners' musical knowledge, its acquisition, and the influence of this knowledge on encoding, organizing, understanding and performing musical patterns.
