In Section 3 readers learn how music relates to other forms of communication including nonverbal, language, and forms of new technology. Section 4 is devoted to specific models connecting music and communication. Communication and Music in Social Interaction features numerous musical examples that illustrate specific points, as well as links to online videos and recordings.
