The hidden psychology of our musical lives

What is the psychology of music? And why study it? Over two lectures, I hope to give you some answers to these questions. In the first lecture, I will introduce you to some of the big ideas in music psychology and explain why it is important to study. This will include topics on music and the brain, music and health, and perceptions of music across cultures. In the second lecture, I will go into more detail and tell you about some of my own research into how music perception is shaped by culture, and how our musical instincts emerge when we interact with babies. Along the way, you will also get the chance to measure your own musical abilities and test your intuitions about unfamiliar music from foreign cultures.
