This paper is concerned with music in a cognitive approach, dealing mainly with consciousness as related to listening. Rather than elaborating a formalised model of some musical/cognitive function, we present an overview of the mental activities that are involved in handling musical material, focusing primarily on information processing and pattern recognition, but stressing the limitations of the cognitive approach as well.
