The study of music is unique and fulfilling. Music uses a complex and theoretical system for notation and the “reading” of music scores while the appreciation of music requires an individual and inner understanding of the aesthetic qualities of sound. The human brain is, amazingly, able to process all of this at one time given early exposure to quality music experiences.
The study of music calls on the use of both hemispheres of the brain simultaneously. The right hemisphere generally tunes into the melody, tonality, and overall appearance of the sound while the left hemisphere attends to the notation, rhythm, and lyrics. Thus, the study of music is ideal in building communication lines in the human brain.
