THE MUSICAL INSTRUMENT AS A FACILITATOR IN THE SIMULTANEOUS ACTIVATION OF THE CEREBRAL EMISPFERE

Summary/Abstract: Due to the specificity of neuronal activity in contact with listening to or playing music, it appears that musicians might use often simultaneously both hemispheres of the brain compared to other people. The occurrence of these types of dynamic neural maps results in many benefits for the development of one’s personality by practicing music, which can be found at the intellectual, emotional, motivational and relational level. The implicit activation of several cortical areas that process complicated various pieces of information in the same time and enable the use of these cortical patterns in other activity areas, are transformed into advantages that ensure superior performances, such as problem solving, management, planning, strategies, detail analysis.Keywords: musical instrument, cognitive benefits, cerebral hemispheres, cortical maps
