Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music is central to human cultural and intellectual experience. It is vitally important for the welfare of human society and - this book argues - should become more widely accepted in our community as a mainstream educational and therapeutic tool. This book explores the importance of music throughout human evolution, and its continued relevance to modern-day human society. Throughout, the emphasis is on the origin of music and how (and where) it is processed in our brains, exploring in detail the genetic and cultural evolution of modern, loquacious humans, how we may have evolved with unique neural and cognitive architecture, and why two complementary but distinct communication systems - language and music - remain a human universal. In addition the book explores, in some depth, the different theories that have been put forward to explain why musical communication was (and remains) advantageous to our species, with a particular emphasis on the role of music and dance in enhancing altruistic and prosocial behaviours. The author suggests that music, and the social harmonization it brings, was of vital importance in early humans as we became more and more individualized by the emergence of modern language and the modern mind, and the realization that we are mortal. Music, Evolution, and the Harmony of Souls demonstrates the evolutionary sociobiological importance of music as a driver of cooperative and interactive behaviour throughout human existence, and what this evolutionary imperative means to twenty-first century humanity and beyond, from social and medical/neurological perspectives

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Harmony: A Treatise on the Material of Musical Composition, Its Gradual Growth and Elementary Use But if the study of harmony is to lead up to anything more than the writing of a double chant, a great many more innovations are necessary. I. The figured bass is often a formless thing. Form is to music what sense is to language. In this treatise form is discussed from the very first. It is neither presumed nor ignored. In the early work help is obtained from the analogy between metre and accent. The student begins with phrase formation, gradually building up a sentence, and finally working exercises in binary or ternary form, with regular and irregular phrase formation. Some atten tion is also paid to thematic development. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
