There's a pretty interesting article in the NYT on an ex-producer who's now working as a brain researcher on how music works:
Music of the Hemispheres
Quote:
He argues... that music is an evolutionary adaptation: something that men developed as a way to demonstrate reproductive fitness.

I'll at least get his book through the library I.L.L., maybe it'll teach me how to play better.... Shocked

Cool stuff, David.

I'm not sure I agree with the quote on reproductive fitness (he does make a compelling argument, though), but it's an interesting read.
