This is the list of speakers for an ACT-R workshop session on music cognition I have organized. Music cognition is a particularly challenging domain area for the ACT-R cognitive architectures. The session will address issues related to the motor control of hands and fingers at the piano, models of figured bass and melodic improvisation, as well as modelling memory in relation to AI and humans in the world of music.
