St. Louis native Elizabeth Margulis, chair of the Music Department at Princeton University, returns to celebrate the release of her new book Transported: The Everyday Magic of Musical Daydreams.
Transported explores the science of how a song sends us somewhere else, into a personal memory or a vivid imagining. Renée Fleming calls it “fascinating and timely” and Béla Fleck calls it “deeply enjoyable.”
Elizabeth Margulis will join Jeffrey Zacks, Chair of the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at Washington University, for a conversation, audience Q&A and book signing.
