Abstract
Abstract Aspects of tonal organization might emerge as a global property from the local interplay of simple neuron‐like units. The study draws new light on recent psychological findings concerning perceptual structures involved in the processing of tonal music and suggests ways for more fine‐grained computer‐simulations which explain and predict these findings from an underlying subsymbolic ‐ and neurobi‐ologically plausible ‐ level. Observations are made concerning (a) the viability of a distributed representation for music based on a psychoacoustical theory of pitch perception and (b) the role of functional self‐organization for models of musical cognition.
