Similarly, neuroscientists have come to learn much about music cognition by studying music-specific disorders. Even though music is most often viewed from a "historical perspective rather than a biological one" [ 1 ] music has significantly gained the attention of neuroscientists all around the world.
Music therapy may be ineffective for people with musical anhedonia, as is the case with certain other diseases and conditions such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease. [7] A 2019 study found that specific music-based treatments may alleviate anhedonia and other depression symptoms.
Iannis Xenakis (1922–2001): Greek composer, music theorist, and architect-engineer. He pioneered the use of mathematical models in music such as applications of set theory, stochastic processes and game theory and was also an important influence on the development of electronic music.

Amusia is a musical disorder that appears mainly as a defect in processing pitch but also encompasses musical memory and recognition. [1] Two main classifications of amusia exist: acquired amusia, which occurs as a result of brain damage, and congenital amusia, which results from a music-processing anomaly present since birth.
Tone deafness is a related, but distinct disorder from beat deafness. People with tone deafness can recognize beat and can move in time to music, but they cannot perceive pitch. People with beat deafness on the other hand, can recognize and distinguish between different tones as well as the average person and can usually sing in tune, so ...
Hugo Riemann (1849–1919): German music theorist and composer [175] Joe Rogan (born 1967): American comedian, podcaster, social critic and UFC color commentator; Andy Rooney (1919–2011): American broadcast personality; specified that he was an agnostic and not an atheist, [176] but also called himself an atheist [177] [178]
In one case study, each of the three sound types (music, environmental sounds, speech) was also shown to recover independently (Mendez and Geehan, 1988-case 2 [22]). It is yet unclear whether general auditory agnosia is a combination of milder auditory disorders, or whether the source of this disorder is at an earlier auditory processing stage.
Apperceptive agnosia is a neurological disorder characterized by failures in recognition due to a failure of perception.In contrast, associative agnosia is a type of agnosia where perception occurs but recognition still does not occur. [1]
