I am posting rather than replying directly in hopes of generating
some discussion about the topic of the neurophysiology of music perception.
I'd recommend that you look at
@BOOK{Clynes82a,
AUTHOR = {Clynes, Manfred},
TITLE = {Music, Mind and Brain: the Neuropsychology of Music},
PUBLISHER = {Plenum Press},
ADDRESS = {New York},
YEAR = {1982}
}
and an interesting, but sometimes speculative, recent volume:
@BOOK{Wallin91a,
AUTHOR = {Wallin, Nils Lennart},
TITLE = {Biomusicology : neurophysiological, neuropsychological, and evo
lutionary perspectives on the origins and purposes of music},
PUBLISHER = {Pendragon Press},
ADDRESS = {Stuyvesant, NY},
YEAR = {1991}
}
You should probably take a look at
@ARTICLE{Basar91a,
AUTHOR = {Basar, E. and Basar--Eroglu, C. and Rahn, E. and Schurmann, M.
},
TITLE = {Sensory and cognitive components of brain resonance responses:
an analysis of responsiveness in human and cat brain upon visual and auditory--s
timulation},
JOURNAL = {Acta Oto--Laryngologica (Supplement)},
VOLUME = {491},
PAGES = {25--35},
YEAR = {1991}
}
@ARTICLE{Bogen71a,
AUTHOR = {Bogen, J. E. and Gordon, H. W.},
TITLE = {Musical tests for functional lateralization with intracarotid a
mobarbital},
JOURNAL = {Nature},
VOLUME = {230},
PAGES = {524--525},
YEAR = {1971}
}
@INCOLLECTION{Borchgrevink82a,
AUTHOR = {Borchgrevink, Hans M.},
TITLE = {Prosody and musical rhythm are controlled by the speech hemisph
ere},
BOOKTITLE = {Music, Mind and Brain},
EDITOR = {Clynes, Manfred},
PUBLISHER = {Plenum},
ADDRESS = {New York},
YEAR = {1982}
}
and although this doesn't directly apply to music perception, I think
that you should take a clue from:
@ARTICLE{Engel91a,

l coding},

nar synchronization which reflects global stimulus properties},
JOURNAL = {Nature},

@ARTICLE{Jones91a,

PAGES = {266--284},
YEAR = {1991}
}
@INCOLLECTION{Llinas92a,
