The results are contributing to a greater understanding of how the brain works and of the importance of music in human development, communication and cognition, and even as a potential therapeutic tool. Research is showing, for example, that our brains understand music not only as emotional diversion, but also as a form of motion and activity. The same areas of the brain that activate when we swing a golf club or sign our name also engage when we hear expressive moments in music. Brain regions associated with empathy are activated, too, even for listeners who are not musicians. \u2026 The brain processes musical nuance in many ways, it turns out.\u201d For more on the relationship between music and the brain, click here<\/a> to read Stuart Isacoff\u2019s article in the July-August 2010 issue of Symphony.<\/p>\n
