Music Education and Brain Development

What effect does music training and education have on the brain? As you consider the best educational pathway for your children we highly recommend reading at least one or two of the nearly fifty articles that have been published over the last seventy years illustrating the positive impacts. Numerous studies provide overwhelming proof of enhanced cognitive development, higher information processing speed, academic growth, emotional intelligence, and brain plasticity, among many other benefits of music training and education. With special thanks to Timothy Lighthiser and Sujin Lee, we are able to provide this list of articles that have been published over this span of time dating back to 1945, including some as recently as 2016.
