The Biology of Music Making: A Conference Report

This unique national conference, held in Denver July 8 through 12, brought together professionals in both music and medicine for a series of lectures, demonstrations, workshops, and panel discussions on a wide variety of topics related to the physiological, psychological, and biological foundations of musical skill. A goal of the conference, which was sponsored by the University of Colorado, the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, and the World Federation of Neurology, was to encourage a working relationship between musicians and behavioral scientists and to provide scientists and medical professionals with a closeup look at musicians for the purpose of further defining their special abilities and problems.
