Psychology of Music

About this book

The psychology of music aims to explain and understand musical behaviour and musical experience. A must read for all fans of music as a complete experience and science. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
