About

In a performance of music by Bach, Massenet, and Tchaikovsky, Dr. Michael Domjan will provide an introduction to the Tertis/Pavlov Project, which explores connections between music and psychology. Dr. Domjan is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Texas at Austin and an expert on Pavlovian conditioning. However, before he became a research psychologist he attended the Juilliard School of Music, where he acquired a Tertis viola. In the Tertis/Pavlov project he explores questions such as "How would B. F. Skinner conduct a music master class?" and "Why is it harder to teach playing the violin than playing baseball?" from his unique personal and academic perspective.
