Light our experience something rhythmic like walking down the street. A lot of composers say they feel like they are not really creating the music. Theyre channeling it. Roseanne cash talks about holding up her catchers mitt and catching one as it goes by. Someone else talks about how the music is everywhere for anyone to take, that you just have to tune into it.

I will leave it there. [applause] one of the things that people often ask is what is happening in our brains when we hear a piece of music. It is extraordinarily complicated. A sound enters the years and there is a cascade of their rick complicated processes that turn the changes in air pressure to an electrical signal which gets transmitted from the year to the brain. Once it hits the brain, it gets even more complicated. It turns out there are distinct regions of the brain that process different aspects of the sound. One part of the brain, you can think of it as a special purpose circuit, attending to and processing their read them.

I am delighted to introduce you to my friend, one of my famous favorite guitarists and musicians. He discovered the guitar at a young age. He has played at notable vilnius such as the notable venues such as montrose and carnegie hall. I would like to start by saying that in the last 15 or 20 years of my research, one thing i found most surprising as a musician myself in exploring music and the brain is how discovering where it is that music is. I always imagined as a player that the music was in my fingers. Now i know is in the brain. It is a neurorepresentation of the figures. Music is in every part of the brain that we have mapped. There is no part of the brain that does not have somethin
