In a second experiment, the researchers replicated the results in a different group of 49 Tsimane people and 47 musically trained people in the US. This time, they recorded Tsimane songs and pitch-shifted them to create artificially harmonized Tsimane songs, some with dissonant and some with consonant harmonies. Then, along with lone harmonies like in the first experiment, they asked participants to rate how pleasant the sounds were. Again, the Tsimane didn’t find the dissonant Tsimane songs unpleasant. Westerners, for whom Tsimane songs were substantially foreign, found them more pleasant when they were consonant.
