Emotions and cognition in the music service
Emotions and cognition in the music service

Summary/Abstract: In this scientific paper, we propose an approach necessary for the understanding of the process of musical creation and interpretation, from the perspective of psychology. We believe that music acts directly, consciously or not, on the brain, thoughts and affections, and especially on the spirit of a melomaniac. Achieving vocal, instrumental, conducting performances or performances in the field of musical creation is similar to accessing and amplifying thinking as well as psychic mechanisms such as motivation, affectivity, communication, attention, will to stimulate behaviour and regulate it. In the present study, we undertake a demonstration of the cognitive and emotional involvement in the musical act, by correlating the voluntary effort essential to building a musical attitude, either interpretative or compositional, which involves the presence of a conscious act with the continuous presence of emotions.
