This paper examines the topic of narrativity in music from a psychological point of view. It is proposed that narrative function arises from music performance as it may be considered a second person intersubjective experience. For this, narrative is analyzed as a human behavioral propensity and general features of narrative thinking on any medium are drawn. From this view, experience of narrative time is crucial. Furthermore main traits of secondary intersubjective experiences are described in order to appreciate the convenience of considering music performance as one of such experiences, where timing mechanisms regulate important attributes of the intersubjective exchanges. Finally a musical example is given, with the aim of showing how the performer can elicit a two-side time structure and activate different timing mechanisms in himself and in listeners. Implications for further studies are discussed
