does musical experience enhance your life in other fields as well? i mean: does it train you for everyday life and enhances for instance (second) language aquisition for (young) people?
i am curious what you think of this.
yes, i think it does. howard gardner distinguishes it as musical cognition. music scientists are very fond of this view.
First off, I can't believe you answered your own post. That is major league spamming and will get you banned and certainly will not get you a hosting account.
Second, on the subject at hand, there is a field of medicine called music therapy which uses music to help in rehab and also in mentally and physically challenged people. If it is a recognized field of medicine, I would think the answer is yes.
