Music and Cognition (with Dr. Cora Palfy)
Episode description
In this episode, I chat with Dr. Cora Palfy (Washington and Jefferson College) about her musical upbringing as a singer, her time studying music theory and cognition at Northwestern, and her music theory pedagogy article on "the hidden curriculum." We also dive into her 2022 book Musical Agency and The Social Listener, which discusses music as an agent that acts upon the listener through narrative.
