An exploration of polyphony and the perspective it offers on our own polyphonic brains. Polyphony – the interweaving of simultaneous sounds – is a crucial aspect of music that has deep implications for how we understand the mind. In Polyphonic Minds, Peter Pesic examines the history and significance of “polyphonicity” – of “many-voicedness” – in human experience. Pesic presents the emergence of Western polyphony, its flowering, its horizons, and the perspective it offers on our own polyphonic brains.
