Tonality and nonlinear resonance

Edward W Large et al. Ann N Y Acad Sci. 2005 Dec.

Abstract

We outline a theory of tonality that predicts tonal stability, attraction, and categorization based on the principles of nonlinear resonance. Perception of tonality is the natural consequence of neural resonance, arising from central auditory nonlinearities.
