It has often been said that “Music makes you smarter”.
Is that true? Is it a fact?
We all know that learning anything increases your brain power, but just what is it about learning an instrument that can help your brain, not only as a beginner, but in the years down the road?
While playing an instrument is a great way to impress people, have fun, and express yourself, learning an instrument is proven to help with memory loss, cognitive decline, and distinguishing the spoken word. Further study has shown that even if you did not learn an instrument when you were a child, studying music later in life will still have benefits. Even after only six months, adults who had received piano lessons showed more robust gains in memory, verbal fluency, the speed at which they processed information, planning ability, and other cognitive functions, compared with those who did not.
If you are considering music lessons at anytime of your life, remember that learning to play an instrument can have a significant benefit on your brain.
