Stefanie, For many years Carolyn Drake was one of the leading researchers on the development of rhythmic and metric perception and skills. Here are a few cites, though doubtless there are more: Drake, C. (1993). "Reproduction of musical rhythms by children, adult musicians, and adult nonmusicians." Perception & Psychophysics 53(1): 25-33. Drake, C. (1998). "Psychological Processes Involved in the Temporal Organization of Complex Auditory Sequences: Universal and Acquired Processes." Music Perception 16(1): 11-26. Drake, C., W. J. Dowling, et al. (1991). "Accent Structures in the Reproduction of Simple Tunes by Children and Adult Pianists." Music Perception 8(3): 315-334.

I am particularly interested in questions such as: At which age a child is able to perceive and to produce a) to c)? When and how does a child acquire these abilities in the visual, motor, and auditory domain? There is an excellent review by Pouthas (1996). Does anyone know of any recent reviews or studies? Many thanks!
