Musical training has the ability to change the shape of your brain (for the better) and the functions of its regions, according to these researchers, who found it improves the plasticity of the brain and is helpful in treating various disabilities:
Long-term high level musical training has a broader impact than previously thought. Researchers found that musicians have an enhanced ability to integrate sensory information from hearing, touch, and sight.
The age at which musical training begins affects brain anatomy as an adult; beginning training before the age of seven has the greatest impact.
