More about the book

Exploring the cognitive and perceptual foundations of voice leading, this work by David Huron delves into why certain musical textures resonate more with listeners. Drawing on extensive research, he explains various phenomena such as the dominance of the highest voice and the effects of chordal-tone doubling. Huron highlights the alignment between traditional voice leading rules and contemporary scientific insights into auditory perception, while also addressing the influence of learning and cultural background on musical experience.
