  1. MUSICAL INTELLIGENCE Howard Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences

  2. Gardner's Definition: • Musical Rhythmic Intelligence, (music smart), is the capacity to think in music, to be able to hear patterns, recognize them, and perhaps manipulate them. • People who have strong musical intelligence don't just remember music easily - they can't get it out of their minds, it's so omnipresent. Now, some people will say: "Yes, music is important, but it's a talent, not an intelligence." And I say, "Fine, let's call it a talent. But, then we have to leave the word intelligent out of the conversation and out of all discussions of human abilities. You know, Mozart was pretty smart!"
