HOW DOES READING MUSIC IMPROVE THE BRAIN?
This groundbreaking book for music takes the reader into the human brain to discover the neural pathways for all music activities - including the essential neural pathways for composers, conductors, and all instrumental and vocal musicians who perform from printed music.
"The Neuroscience of Reading Music" explores numerous topics including:
What are the differences in the brain between "playing by ear" and "playing from notation?"
Why is it neurologically improbable that learning notation early harms or lessens music intelligence, as many educators currently believe?
What is the real role of music intelligence in reading music notation?
What is alphabetic logic and how can it speed up the note reading process?
Is simple-to-complex hierarchy neurologically necessary or just optional in learning notation?
How does whole body coordination affect learning abilities?
What is the similarity between reading notation and general classroom subjects?
Moir shared her ideas and concerns with Howard Gardner, the eminent Harvard professor and widely accepted authority on the intelligences, who wrote the book Frames of Mind, the Theory of Multiple Intelligences (1983).
"You raise an interesting set of issues. Best wishes for the success of your book."
-Howard Gardner
