Dale Purves

Dale Purves

Dr. Dale Purves is affiliated with the Duke Institute for Brain Sciences. He is also a member of the Center for Cognitive Neuroscience. Dr. Purves got his M.D. in 1964 from the Harvard Medical School, and his B.A from Yale.

Why do human beings find some tone combinations consonant and others dissonant? Why do we make music using only a small number of scales out of the billions that are possible? In the ebook Music as Biology: The Tones We Like and Why (PDF), author Dale Purves shows that rethinking music theory in biological terms offers a new approach to centuries-long debates about the organization and impact of music.
