Music & Aging Brains



Strangely it seems that playing trombone as a student (and not very well I must add) may be helping my cognitive skills. HealthDay reporter Barbara Bronson Gray wrote about this in an article entitled Musicians' Brains Might Have an Edge on Aging.

I have a vague memory of reading a number of articles about the positive cognitive impact of music – listening and playing – on the brain. I'll try to dig them out and post them in the future.
