4 months ago
"Notes & Neurons: In Search of the Common Chorus"
Is our response to music hard-wired or culturally determined? Is the reaction to rhythm and melody universal or influenced by environment? Join host John Schaefer, scientist Daniel Levitin and musical artist Bobby McFerrin for live performances and cross cultural demonstrations to illustrate music’s note-worthy interaction with the brain and our emotions.
This segment features an impressive display of improvisational harmony from Bobby McFerrin.
This event took place on June 12, 2009 in the Gerald Lynch Theater at the City University of New York. This is the first of five segments.
