Overview
A talk and workshop led by Professor Lauren Stewart at 21Soho in Soho, looking at how the brain processes sound and why music can move its listeners emotionally.
Professor Lauren Stewart leads this session on how the brain turns sound into music, and why a piece can stir a listener to tears, to action or to a physical shiver. Her focus is prediction: how much of music's emotional force depends on what the listener anticipates. She also examines how listening engages the brain's motor networks and produces vivid imagery and physiological responses.
The second part turns to learning an instrument and how that practice can reshape the brain over time. A question-and-answer period follows the talk.
21Soho is a concert venue in Soho, in central London, and the evening is built around the science behind musical experience rather than a performance programme.
