DESCRIPTION:(This talk is a Wort Lecture)\n- Why is sad music pleasurable?
  Why does adolescence figure so strongly in music-related nostalgia?\n\nTh
 e Wort Lecture Series 2012-13 entitled Gloomy Sundays\, Wicked Games\, and
  Broken Hearts: The Science of Sad Sounds will be given by David Huron\, A
 rts and Humanities Distinguished Professor at the Ohio State University\, 
 where he holds joint appointments in the School of Music and in the Center
  for Cognitive Science.\n\n\nSERIES ABSTRACT:\n\nWhat is the appeal of sad
  music? How does music evoke tears? Or transport a listener to a nostalgic
  reverie? This series of four lectures focuses on three emotions — sadne
 ss\, grief\, and nostalgia — and their many musical manifestations. Lect
 ures integrate behavioral and physiological studies with cultural and musi
 c analyses\, in an effort to understand the paradoxical musical enfatuatio
 n with negative emotions.
