The Brain's Training in the Improvement of Pitch and Tempo Acuities

Abstract

In this text, I wish to not only share information about an on-going study of mine but to elucidate a few of my thoughts about the importance, i.e., the contributions that present-day researches in brain activities can make to us in our music education and music psychology endeavors. Please follow me through a lengthy introduction in which I make the case for the importance of us music educators/music psychologists to keep abreast of what the neuroscientists are telling us about how, what, and where functions are occurring in the brain in responses to musical stimuli.
