An immersive concert-lecture led by composer, musicologist, author, and Music Genome Project architect Dr. Nolan Gasser and his virtuoso ensemble, inspired by the acclaimed PBS special. Blending live performance, storytelling, and insights from neuroscience, psychology, and culture, the show explores the hidden forces that shape our musical preferences and why music affects us so deeply.  Audiences are invited to engage throughout the performance via the Why You Like It companion app, guided live from the stage, and at the conclusion of the show receive a personalized playlist generated from their responses—extending the experience beyond the venue and transforming how audiences listen to and connect with music.
