Cateni & Valentini Ode to an Earworm Recorder & Theorbo Lunchtime Concert “I was [un]able to think of any thing, but remained all night transported.” – Samuel Pepys Music has a tendency to continue playing inside our minds, whether we want it to or not. Today, studies are being conducted to examine the causes and cures of such so-called earworms. From Peyps, we gather that musical earworms are in no way unique to our century. Without specific studies of the phenomenon to guide us, how can we follow the traces of earworms back in time?
