HOW does she DO that?Nina Simone - Ain't Got No song
Instead of "imagining a world with no...." as Yoko Ono taught John Lennon to sing - her we have Nina Simone revealing the secret of absolute Truth - the Void - the Emptiness.
John Chernoff went to West Africa to study drumming. I cite his book in my master's thesis - he learned it was the space BETWEEN the notes that was the real secret to harmony and syncopated rhythm....

So....
Nina Simone's genius is that she improvised this harmony between two different melodies as counterpoint - in real time.
So what did the authors find in their experiment?
So the genius of Nina Simone is that she also has other background harmonics going on while she is also improvising the two counterpoint melodies.
