Taking a look at the How and Why of music, the team that brought you the Peabody-Award winning series The Wire: the Impact of Electricity on Music brings you a new six-part series, The Nerve: Music & the Human Experience.

Welcome to the Signature Series. Personality profiles of the key signatures of music. Key signatures of music like G Major or F Sharp-minor, are kind of like the signs of the zodiac. And if you take all the music that's been composed in a specific 'key' over the centuries, you'll encounter certain characteristics. Characteristics that are very much like personalities. Which key are you? Find out by listening to The Signature Series (12 distinct five minute segments).
