A fascinating journey through the world’s musical cultures. Every
culture on Earth has music. Every culture that’s ever existed has
had it, but we don’t exactly know why. Music is not like food,
shelter, or having opposable thumbs. We don’t need it to live,
and yet we can’t seem to live without it. Glenn Dixon travels the
globe exploring how and why people make music. From a tour of
Bob Marley’s house to sitar lessons in India, he experiences
music around the world and infuses the stories with the latest in
brain research, genetics, and evolutionary psychology. Why does
music give us chills down the backs of our necks? What exactly are
the whales singing about and why does some music stick in our minds
like chewing gum? Through his adventures, Dixon uncovers the real
reasons why music has such a powerful hold on us – and the
answers just might surprise you.
