Carol L. Krumhansl is a music psychologist, Professor of Psychology at Cornell University.[1] Her work addresses the perception of musical tonality (relationships between tones, chords and keys such as C major or C# minor). Her approach is based on empirical cognitive psychology and her research established the meaning of the now common term "tonal hierarchies".

Her interdisciplinary research touches music psychology, music theory and cognitive neuroscience of music.

Her book, Krumhansl (1990), has been reviewed by David Huron[2] and is a standard resource for teachers and students of music psychology and one of the discipline's most cited sources.[citation needed]
