Dear Martin et al, Concerning your statement:
Deutsch, D. Music recognition. Psychological Review , 1969, 76, 300-309. [PDF Document] for a proposed neural network that would accomplish recognition of musical intervals and chords under transposition and inversion, together with a discussion of the relevant neurophysiological evidence that existed at that time. See also my chapter 'The processing of pitch combinations' in Deutsch, D. (Ed.) The Psychology of Music. 2nd Edition. San Diego: Academic Press, 1999 which revisits this model with updated references, together with the chapter 'Neural nets, temporal composites, and tonality' by Jamshed Bharucha in the same volume. Further at the neurophysiological level, please also see the work of the Gerald Langner on the ventral nucleus of the lateral lemniscus.
