The neuroscientific interest in music has increased with the advancement of brain imaging techniques that show the human brain at work. The research shows that music engages many areas of the brain.

HOW MUSIC MAKES THE BRAIN WORK:

AUDITORY CORTEX


Area of the brain that is responsible for the perception and analysis of sound.

VISUAL CORTEX
Region of the brain that activates when reading music or observing musical performance.

SENSORY CORTEX
Area of the brain that receives messages from a sense organ (for example, when playing an instrument or dancing).

MOTOR CORTEX
Regions of the brain involved in the planning, control and execution of voluntary motor functions (such as the control of finger/hand muscles).
