Forthcoming on Music Therapy
Dr. Michael Thaut, Department of Music
Brain research shows how music as a language of thinking in sound is deeply embedded into the neural structure of the brain. Furthermore, the evidence is strong that the early human brain was an artful one from its appearance in the pre-historical record. We may conclude that the artfulness and musicality of the human brain may actually have been the foundation for the emergence of the modern human mind.
