This analysis re-investigates dissonance and consonance in music, highlighting associated neuroscience evidence.

The results demonstrate a differentiated conclusion on dissonance and consonance based on historical experiments.
Findings ranked interval consonance types closely align with earlier music theory, including octave and tritone.
Examining Gestalt aspects reveals a narrow view of consonance and dissonance, particularly in early and Eastern European music.
Neuroscience evidence supports findings with analyses of auto-correlation in human hearing physiology.

Mores et al. (2025) studied this question.
