In this video, Berklee Online Professor Susan Rogers explains critical bands and their relevance in understanding musical consonance and dissonance. With a graph of auditory filters across the frequency spectrum perceivable by humans, she demonstrates how the space between frequencies and how the bands they belong to will dictate how they will interact or interfere with each other.
