概要 We are the only species that makes music. Moreover, all human societies make music of some kind because music is hardwired into the human brain, just as language is. In this workshop we examined what music is, and explored the ways in which our brains "hear" and respond to various kinds of music: both music that is familiar and music from other cultures. We also discussed the differences between recorded and live musical performances and ways in which music is an integral part of our daily lives. My aim was for participants to consider themselves truly "musical" and appreciate the effects that music has on the brain and our overall wellbeing.
