Music and the Brain

Today I had my yearly physical, and my doctor told me that on my recommendation, he has been taking piano lessons for almost a year now, and he really enjoys it! Every year at my check-up he loves to talk about music, and now he has been enjoying it and thinks that it's been great for his thinking. He said that he started to think about all his patients who play an instrument, and he says that they are the most on-the-ball patients he has.
