The Neuromantics - Episode 6 (S1)

The Neuromantics Season 1 Episode 6 In this episode, the Neuromantics take apart the sound of music, the scientific phenomenon that is. Writer and poet Will Eaves and neuroscientist Professor Sophie Scott discuss how the human ear processes musical sound, focusing in particular on pitch and timbre. Visiting, as ever, a scientific paper and a literary offering, they revel in the soaring possibilities of the voice – that exceptional musical instrument which we’re all handed at birth.
