The Differences Between Musicians’ and Non-musicians’ Brains
As musicians, we subject our brains to a regime of training that is virtually unparalleled in its intensity and duration, not to mention the level of exquisite perfection we are expected to attain. Most of us started our instruments when we were very young, have practiced daily for hours ever since, and will continue to do so for many more decades. There is no other field that demands this sort...
متن کاملVisual memory in musicians and non-musicians
Many investigations have reported structural, functional, and cognitive changes in the brains of musicians, which occur as a result of many years of musical practice. We aimed to investigate if intensive, long-term musical practice is associated with improved visual memory ability. Musicians and non-musicians, who were comparable in age, gender, and education, were submitted to a visual memory ...
متن کاملLexical tone perception in musicians and non-musicians
It has been suggested that music and speech maintain entirely dissociable mental processing systems. The current study, however, provides evidence that there is an overlap in the processing of certain shared aspects of the two. This study focuses on fundamental frequency (pitch), which is an essential component of melodic units in music and lexical and/or intonational units in speech. We hypoth...
متن کاملAuditory and Visual Interhemispheric Communication in Musicians and Non-Musicians
The corpus callosum (CC) is a brain structure composed of axon fibres linking the right and left hemispheres. Musical training is associated with larger midsagittal cross-sectional area of the CC, suggesting that interhemispheric communication may be faster in musicians. Here we compared interhemispheric transmission times (ITTs) for musicians and non-musicians. ITT was measured by comparing si...
متن کاملAbsolute Memory for Tempo in Musicians and Non-Musicians
The ability to remember tempo (the perceived frequency of musical pulse) without external references may be defined, by analogy with the notion of absolute pitch, as absolute tempo (AT). Anecdotal reports and sparse empirical evidence suggest that at least some individuals possess AT. However, to our knowledge, no systematic assessments of AT have been performed using laboratory tasks comparabl...
