Peter Vuust is a unique combination of a world class musician and a top-level scientist. He plays and records regularly with international jazz stars such as Lars Jansson,Tim Hagans,John Abercrombie and Jukkis Uotila,and appears on more than 80 records,six of these as band leader. Based on his distinguished music and research career,he was appointed professor at The Royal Academy of Music Aarhus (RAMA) in 2008. After graduating from AU in Mathematics,French and Music,he devoted ten years to playing music,before resuming the academic career in 2000. He wrote a book on polyrhythms in Miles Davis quintet,that laid out the music theoretical framework for his PhD in neuroscience in 2006 concerning the neural processing of polyrhythms. Using behavioral measures,magnetoencephalography,electroencephalography and functional MR imaging,he provided evidence of an overlap between the neural substrates underlying processing of music and language syntax and semantics especially in musicians. This led to research into the emotional impact of music studies of neuroplasticity in musicians,and research into general theories about brain organization. Vuust collaborates and publishes with internationally renowned top-researchers such as Chris Frith, Risto Näätänen,Morten Kringelbach,Elvira Brattico,and Mari Tervianemi. Since 2007,Peter Vuust leads the multidisciplinary research group Music in the Brain, which aims at understanding the neural processing of music,by using a combination af advanced music theory,behavioral experience,and state-of-the-art brain scanning methods.
This research has the potential to significantly influence the way we play,teach,and use music clinically,and impact on our understanding of human brain function in general. The expanding group consists of PhDs,post-docs and a wide international network of collaborators who engage through weekly meetings,workshops and international symposia. As a leader PV draws on his many national and international personal relations and foremost on his experience through more than 15 years as leader and fundraiser for his own jazz orchestra,Peter Vuust Quartet a job that demands discipline,stamina and a great deal of psychological insight.
