| summary | A defining characteristic of our interactions with music is the ability to move to the “beat”. This complex ability is universal and spontaneously acquired early in life. Yet, as we have recently shown, some individuals fail to find the beat in music and to synchronize with it, despite having normal hearing, normal motor and intellectual abilities. This disorder, to which we refer as beat deafness (a new form of congenital amusia), provides a natural experiment, a rare chance to examine how a selective cognitive deficit emerges and how it is expressed in the brain. |
