Intrinsic muscles guide those angular movements with a high precision. This make the hand capable of performing delicate functions with very fine discrimination. One of the extreme levels of hand functions is playing an instrument. A computer can well play a classical music masterpiece.

In this lecture, how the hand works and how it is used in playing music will be presented.
