SUMMARY:Friends Program: Dr. Susan Rogers - Individuality and the Music-Listening Brain
DESCRIPTION:Friends Program: Dr. Susan Rogers – “Individuality and the Music-Listening Brain”\nDr. Susan Rogers\, a behavioral neuroscientist and a former record producer and engineer known for her work with Prince\, will speak September 21 at the Needham library about the uniqueness of every music lover’s listening. She will describe the “listener profile\,” a constellation of mental sweet spots where music delivers the optimal award for each listener. \nDr. Rogers teaches for Berklee College of Music Online and is the author of This Is What It Sounds Like: What the Music You Love Says About You\, published by W. W. Norton & Company in 2021. She holds a doctorate in psychology from McGill University\, where she studied music cognition and psychoacoustics. Her research focuses on auditory memory\, the perception of musical signals\, and the influence of musical training on auditory development. \nFor two decades prior to her science career\, Rogers was one of the world’s few women known for her work as a record producer\, engineer\, mixer\, and audio electronics technician. Career highlights include years (1983–1988) as staff engineer for recording artist Prince. \nThis Program is sponsored by the Friends of the Needham Public Library. Registration is required\, as we have a current capacity limit of 108.
