Did you miss the post right above this one? It's pretty specific.
Quote:I never considered myself to have learned anything while listening to music

OK. That's your experience.
Quote:and you still haven't said specifically what knowledge you have gained about yourself while listening to music.
I gave a specific example above.

Quote:I'd say even if you learned about the emotions you feel due to music you still would need to know what the different emotions are to know you felt what is known as an emotion rather than just feeling the emotion.
I'm not sure that I've ever "studied and experimented" with emotions, although it's something I'd have to ponder. Knowing the names for emotions is a different thing than feeling them. It's actually a good question, and one I'll think about.
Quote:Even if you discover without science different notes make you feel different things the only way to progress in gaining more knowledge about this is from experimentation and testing, which has been done which is why there's music theory and different scales relating to how they usually make people feel for example minor scales and major scales.
But I don't study music. I only vaguely know what major and minor scales are. I don't have any music theory education at all. I just listen. It's true that I've trained myself through experimentation to like forms of music I otherwise wouldn't have, but that's a different thing than what I'm talking about. It may be that to gain MORE knowledge I would have to study, but that doesn't negate the knowledge I acquire before the study.
