How Musical Are You?

Are you blessed with a musi­cal brain? If you care to find out, the BBC is now run­ning an exper­i­ment – How Musi­cal Are You? – that assess­es your over­all rela­tion­ship with music. It includes ques­tion­naires and tests designed to see whether you can group togeth­er dif­fer­ent musi­cal styles, mem­o­rize tunes and rec­og­nize the beat in a piece of music. It all takes about 25 min­utes, and, when you’re done, you will receive some (desir­able or unde­sir­able) feed­back. This exper­i­ment was designed by researchers at the Music, Mind and Brain Research Group, Uni­ver­si­ty of Lon­don, and your par­tic­i­pa­tion will con­tribute to their research into the musi­cal brain. Note: You will need to reg­is­ter with the BBC to par­tic­i­pate.
