即使是没有受过正规音乐训练的成年人，也有通过日常接触他们文化中的音乐而获得的隐含的音乐知识。在儿童时期需要培养的两项更复杂的音乐能力是关键成员(音符属于关键)和和声(和弦与和弦进行)的知识。以前的研究表明，4岁或5岁儿童对关键成员关系敏感，但直到6岁或7岁才提供和谐感知的行为证据。因此，我们使用一个简单的任务和一首熟悉的歌曲，考察了4岁和5岁儿童对关键成员关系和和声的知识。与之前的研究一致，我们发现，即使是最小的孩子也获得了关键成员资格。此外，即使是4岁的孩子也表现出了一些西方和谐的知识，这种和谐在4到5岁之间继续发展。综上所述，我们的研究结果表明，和谐知觉的发展早于先前提出的发展阶段。
EVEN ADULTS WITHOUT FORMAL MUSIC TRAINING HAVE implicit musical knowledge that they have acquired through day-to-day exposure to the music of their culture. Two of the more sophisticated musical abilities to develop in childhood are knowledge of key membership (which notes belong in a key) and harmony (chords and chord progressions). Previous research suggests sensitivity to key membership by 4 or 5 years, but provides no behavioral evidence of harmony perception until 6 or 7. Thus, we examined knowledge of key membership and harmony in 4- and 5-year-old children using a simple task and a familiar song. In line with previous research, we found that even the youngest children had acquired key membership. Furthermore, even 4-year-olds demonstrated some knowledge of Western harmony, which continued to develop between 4 and 5 years of age. In sum, our results indicate that harmony perception begins to develop earlier than has been previously suggested.
