Music Cognition: The Basics by Henkjan Honing
Why do people attach importance to the wordless language we call music? Music Cognition: The Basics considers the role of our cognitive functions such as perception, memory, attention, and expectation in perceiving, making, and appreciating music."Insights from one of the leading researchers working at the intersection of music, psychology, and computer science"
–Dan Levitin, author of This is your brain on music
"A graceful and precise introduction into the intricacy of what ordinary humans manage to learn about music, naturally and automatically, just by listening."
–Gary Marcus, author of Guitar Zero
"Honing demonstrates that ordinary listeners, whether children or adults, are a lot more musically savvy than they think they are."
–Sandra Trehub, Department of Psychology, University of Toronto
