Evidence for a sensitive period in the musical brain
Hello dear reader, I very much hope that your January is going well. We have had some snow here in London which was nice but everyone is getting a little tired of the freezing conditions by now. This week I am trying to do some testing but it is going very slowly as people are frequently not turning up for sessions (grrrr). One advantage of this is that I have some extra reading time and thanks to this I came across a new paper that is all about the issue of whether there is a ‘sensitive period’ for musical training. Does earlier musical training have greater effects on the brain…
