Interdisciplinary perspectives on the capacity to perceive, appreciate, and make music.

Research shows that all humans have a predisposition for music, just as they do for language. All of us can perceive and enjoy music, even if we can't carry a tune and consider ourselves "unmusical." This volume offers interdisciplinary perspectives on the capacity to perceive, appreciate, and make music. Scholars from biology, musicology, neurology, genetics, computer science, anthropology, psychology, and other fields consider what music is for and why every human culture has it; whether musicality is a uniquely human capacity; and what biological and cognitive mechanisms underlie it.

Contributors outline a research program in musicality, and discuss issues in studying the evolution of music; consider principles, constraints, and theories of origins; review musicality from cross-cultural, cross-species, and cross-domain perspectives; discuss the computational modeling of animal song and creativity; and offer a historical context for the study of musicality. The volume aims to identify the basic neurocognitive mechanisms that constitute musicality (and effective ways to study these in human and nonhuman animals) and to develop a method for analyzing musical phenotypes that point to the biological basis of musicality.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

**跨學科的音樂感知、欣賞與創作能力的觀點**

研究顯示,所有人類對音樂都有一種先天的傾向,就像對語言一樣。我們每個人都能感知和享受音樂,即使我們無法唱出旋律,並認為自己是「沒有音樂感的」。本書提供了關於感知、欣賞和創作音樂能力的跨學科觀點。來自生物學、音樂學、神經學、遺傳學、計算機科學、人類學、心理學等領域的學者探討音樂的功能及為何每個人類文化都有音樂;音樂性是否是獨特的人類能力;以及其背後的生物學和認知機制。

貢獻者們概述了音樂性的研究計劃,並討論了音樂演化研究中的問題;考慮起源的原則、限制和理論;從跨文化、跨物種和跨領域的角度回顧音樂性;討論動物歌曲和創造力的計算建模;並提供音樂性研究的歷史背景。本書旨在識別構成音樂性的基本神經認知機制(以及有效研究這些機制的方法),並發展一種分析音樂表型的方法,以指向音樂性的生物學基礎。
