Summary/Abstract: This article considers Kathleen Marie Higgins’s theory of musical experience. She examines the features of human perception that enable music’s ability to provoke the sense of a democratic, shared, cross-cultural experience. Drawing on philoso-phy, psychology, anthropology, and ethnomusicology, Higgins provides a new understanding of what it means to be musical.
