The two groups &#8211; musical experts and laymen &#8211; listened to these pieces as their brain activity was monitored by EEG electrodes, and were asked to choose whether the ending was \u2018satisfactory or unsatisfactory\u2019.  If their hypothesis was correct then the musicians should be better at spotting the interrupted endings &#8211; and should display distinctive patterns of brain activity in response to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Previous research on \u2018syntactically irregular chords\u2019 had been shown to evoke in listeners (musicians and non-musicians alike) a negative electrical potential in the front right area of the scalp very soon after the event, called an \u2018early right-anterior negativity\u2019 or ERAN.  The authors hoped that a similar brain reaction might be observed here, and perhaps just in musicians due to the subtlety of the \u2018transgression\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Method<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>26 male volunteers (all male because neurophysiological responses to music are known to be sex sensitive) were recruited &#8211; 13 expert pianists (from Swiss and French conservatoires) and 13 musical laymen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>30 excerpts of solo piano music were expressly composed, performed and recorded (not synthesised!) for the experiment, each with two alternative final cadences, one perfect and one interrupted (thus making 60 excerpts).  Each participant listened to all the excerpts (in random order), each one 3 times, so that the playlist was 180 excerpts long. As the experiment progressed listeners were asked to indicate whether each final cadence sounded \u2018satisfactory\u2019 or \u2018unsatisfactory\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(I write &#8216;interrupted cadence&#8217; for the sake of brevity. Strictly speaking only two thirds of the cadences were textbook &#8216;interrupted&#8217;, meaning they fell on the submediant.  The other third fell on the subdominant, not strictly &#8216;interrupted&#8217; but certainly &#8216;unsatisfactory&#8217;).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are two examples of the musical excerpts, each with its alternative perfect cadence (marked &#8216;R&#8217; for regular) and interrupted cadence (&#8216;I&#8217; for incongruous):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"542\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-mus1-1024x542.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-638\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-mus1-1024x542.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-mus1-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-mus1-768x407.png 768w, https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-mus1.png 1316w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-mus-2-1024x534.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-639\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-mus-2-1024x534.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-mus-2-300x156.png 300w, https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-mus-2-768x400.png 768w, https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-mus-2.png 1297w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>All the while the listeners&#8217; brain activity was being recorded, more specifically the electrical potential (in microvolts) at each of 128 superficial electrodes evenly distributed around the scalp and measured over time (in milliseconds) from the moment the final cadence was played to half a second later.

Perfect (&#8216;satisfactory&#8217;) cadences proved easier to recognise &#8211; 81% (laymen) and 96% again (musicians).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regarding analysis of EEG data in the three stages listed above: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1)  The &#8216;first step&#8217;  five-electrode analysis revealed what the researchers had been hoping for: signs of an early right-sided negative component in relation to the interrupted cadence&#8230; but only in musicians.

These &#8216;map movies&#8217; were segmented into snapshots called &#8216;microstates&#8217; &#8211; such segmentation actually happens naturally, as the &#8220;topography of the electric field at the scalp does not very randomly as a function of time, but rather remains in a stable configuration for brief time periods&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the ERP (event-related potential) and microstate data presented over those 500ms, both of experts (top) and of laymen (bottom), after a <strong>perfect<\/strong> cadence:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"622\" height=\"486\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-micro-perfect.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-micro-perfect.png 622w, https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-micro-perfect-300x234.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 622px) 100vw, 622px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> It&#8217;s clear on inspection that the two groups share similar data, and that they have nearly all the resultant microstate maps (1,2,3,6,7) in common &#8211; only state 4 is peculiar to musicians and state 5 to laymen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, here is the same comparison but after an <strong>interrupted<\/strong> cadence:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"555\" height=\"463\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-micro-interrupted.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-micro-interrupted.png 555w, https:\/\/www.musicianscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/int-micro-interrupted-300x250.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 555px) 100vw, 555px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Notice that up until about 200 milliseconds after the event (the interrupted cadence) all listeners share the same series of microstates (1,2,3) but from 200 ms onwards the two groups have wildly different patterns of brain activity: musicians cascade along five different states (4,3,6,7,8) while laymen remain steady in one state (5).

They make clear that this is a quick response, perhaps allowing for &#8220;rapid adaptation and error correction&#8221; in an expert musician.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The right-sided lateralisation of the response tallies with previous research describing the right hemisphere&#8217;s dominance in auditory and medial-temporal areas for tonality processing (with the left hemisphere more involved in speech).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s suggested that the later microstates in the musician &#8211; 3,6,7 and 8, showing an area of positivity moving from front to back over time &#8211; reveal activation in motor parts of the brain (reflecting automatic motor involvement), the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Anterior_cingulate_cortex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">anterior cingulate cortex <\/a>(perhaps reflecting error detection and decision making), <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Orbitofrontal_cortex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">orbitofrontal cortex<\/a> (emotion) and <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Visual_cortex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">visual cortex<\/a> (reflecting visual imagery during music processing).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In conclusion, the paper describes how the limbic system of musicians &#8211; rather than the auditory system &#8211; seems to carrying out the early cognitive and emotive analysis of chord function, demonstrating how it&#8217;s not only auditory and motor areas of the brain that show &#8216;functional plasticity&#8217; in response to musical training, but also the limbic structures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Coda<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wFPoRmsiFzc\" target=\"_blank\">A Musical Joke &#8211; W A Mozart (1756-91)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Liszt Ferenc Chamber Orchestra<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title of paper under discussion Early neuronal responses in right limbic structures mediate harmony incongruity processing in musical experts Authors Clara E.
