Explore the foundational concepts of music perception and cognition with Ernst Kurth’s seminal work, “Music Psychology.” This groundbreaking text, first published in 1931, offers a unique systematic approach that remains relevant for music theorists and psychologists today. Translated for the first time in its entirety into English by Daphne Tan and Christoph Neidhöfer, this book delves into enduring topics like listening habits, memory, the body’s role in musical experience, and the use of metaphor. Discover testable hypotheses for modern music perception research and find inspiration for composers, particularly through discussions on energy, force, space, and matter. “Music Psychology” is essential for anyone interested in the interdisciplinary history of science, the emergence of psychology, and the deep connection between music and the mind.
