The human brain is prepackaged with a series of innate preferences
widespread, from culture to culture. In terms of music we prefer
repetition to randomness, consonance to dissonance, tonality to
atonality, and predictability to unexpectedness. Differences in music
exist around the world, but like food, there are several essential
ingredients the brain is programmed to pay special attention to.
Contrary to the modernist, what’s pleasurable to the ear is not
arbitrary.
