This contribution explores how mathematical and structural thinking can support cognitive well-being and inclusive learning through musical interpretation. An interdisciplinary STEAM framework integrates mathematics, cognitive psychology, and practice-based artistic research. Through the analysis of musical patterns and relationships, mathematical modeling is proposed as an epistemic tool to reduce cognitive complexity, strengthen interpretive awareness, and foster more sustainable learning strategies. A case study from Ruggiero Leoncavallo’s Playeras Ancienne illustrates the approach.

Abstract

This contribution explores how mathematical and structural thinking can support cognitive well-being and inclusive learning through musical interpretation. An interdisciplinary STEAM framework integrates mathematics, cognitive psychology, and practice-based artistic research. Through the analysis of musical patterns and relationships, mathematical modeling is proposed as an epistemic tool to reduce cognitive complexity, strengthen interpretive awareness, and foster more sustainable learning strategies. A case study from Ruggiero Leoncavallo’s Playeras Ancienne illustrates the approach.
