The Musical Brain: An Evening with Dr. Randy M Rosenberg
Music is as much a fundamental aspect of human behavior as language. Melody and rhythm are hardwired into our brains and are an integral part of our lives even before we are born.
The attraction of music, whether as an audience member or a performer, defies culture, age and ethnocentricity. There are 60 million amateur musicians in the U.S. alone. If you consider the complexity of the musical brain, then it is not difficult to imagine that there are instances where the circuitry fails. Such neurological disruption can result in profoundly disabling syndromes that deprive either the listener or artist of the beauty of music.
Dr. Rosenberg will discuss some of these unusual conditions from the standpoint of a neurologist with 36 years of clinical experience and a musician who has performed for over 50 years. You’ll leave this lecture with a better understanding of the musical brain.
