Musical instruments played down the effects of aging especially related to hearing. A study in the United States reveals, those familiar with the instrument throughout his life has hearing ability and better memory than those who never touched a musical.
"Practicing music can prolong life, improve memory, and enhance the ability to hear speech in noise," says Nina Kraus, authors of the study which served as the Director of the Auditory Neuroscience Laboratory at Northwestern University, United States, as quoted by the Daily Mail.
In their study, researchers recruited 18 musicians and 19 non-musicians ages 45 to 65 years. They asked respondents to listen to speech in noisy atmosphere. They also conducted a series of tests such as tests of visual memory, voice recording capability, and ability to hear.
The musicians learned to play musical instruments at an early age or under nine years old and still active until now, managed to defeat the non-musicians in all tests. However, in tests of visual working memory capability, both groups showed almost identical ability.
Doctor Kraus said, the experience of extracting sound from a wide range of musical instruments and sound sequences considering increasing development of auditory skills. "Playing music involves their ability to retrieve relevant patterns, including their own voices, instruments, harmony, and rhythm."
Dr. Kraus said, practicing music can improve memory and auditory nervous system. "The experience of musical communication can combat the problems associated with age," he said, adding that the study published in the scientific journal PLoS One recent issue.
Strengthen these findings, other studies revealed that giving children music lessons can be a training to increase the concentration of learning in schools. Learning music can also reduce some negative effects of aging.
