What ignites emotions, what evokes imagination when listening to music, when reading? Can the neuropsychologist fathom it, can he describe it? Is literature without musicality even conceivable? What happens in the brain of a person who has heard and read stories since early childhood, and what in the brain of a future writer who writes for years?

Lutz Jäncke, emeritus neuropsychologist at the University of Zurich, presents with the stories "When Notes Taste Salty" a collection of encounters with musicians that have helped him understand how humans work. We talk with him about music, language, literature and the incredible abilities of the brain.
