  • In this video I will go deeper into the facts and science behind the relationship of music & neuroplasticity and I'll also share my personal experience. I'm presenting 10 benefits to our brains that occur while playing piano or music in general. Initially I was inspired by @hubermanlab to learn more about neuroscience and was always fascinated by our brains.

    I've only begun to learn to play keyboard but have noticed my great growing excitement is doing so. I've had decades of depressing things which have happened to me and I had no joy in living. Nothing made me happy no matter what it was. Now after playing I have a new lease on life, everything is exciting and all I dream about is playing the keyboard. I feel like a kid again even at being 64 years old.

    Great video! You did mention stress reduction, but I would like to add that stress reduction can lead to various health benefits, and remission of various chronic diseases that are very common nowadays. Thus, indirectly, learning a musical instrument can help people with stress-related diseases, like autoimmune disease, IBS, migranes, sleep disorders, eating disorders, and many more, much faster than medication would.

    Playing music has a lot of physical & mental benefits for sure.
    When we were younger, many parents get us enrolled in music lessons. Music is often taught like technical exercises. We'd practice and only play in front of the teacher. After a year or 2 many lose interest and never touch an instrument again.
    Coming from a non-musical family, everybody around had some music education but nobody really got into playing music in a serious way. My parents didn't encourage anybody in the family to continue after a few years of lessons (guitar, piano or violin) that didn't get anywhere.
    Went back to playing music as an adult eventually. In the beginning many of us would find a music teacher and play only the assigned repertoire. Nowadays finding sheet music online is so easy there is a whole library of music within reach. Once you learn to read sufficiently you're not restricted to just the teacher's assigned pieces.

    Cool!! You're that "other Slava" guy who collab'd with Annique on Beethoven V!! The benefits of playing music have been long known on an anecdotal level, but it's great to hear of empirical evidence from respected academic studies corroborating them as well. Hopefully one needn't be a classical virtuoso to enjoy the neurological benefits of piano study. Great stuff!!

    Hi! I found your video because I saw that you have cited one of our works (the meta-analysis on memory on plos one). However we did not test older musicians, we did a meta-analysis on the difference in memory performance between musicians and nonmusicians, just in adults. In any case, it has to be noted that correlational studies (many of those you have cited) cannot prove causality, so it is still an open question whether music does really improve certain cognitive skills (beyond those needed to play an instrument of course). Great work, I wanted just to add some "scientist" point of view and clarify the error, as I am working on this very topic.

    • @pianosmaene
      @pianosmaene  Před 8 měsíci +1

      Thanks so much for this! I'm not a scientist myself and these details have simply passed my attention, I hope that people will understand the general consensus that playing an instrument is beneficial. Will you be testing older musicians in a future study? Thanks for the wonderful work you're doing!

It would be great to prove the benefits of music, it is just very difficult in simple correlational studies. But we are getting there and there are anyway longitudinal studies, or intervention studies that showed promising results. Thanks for your interest in bringing up this topic to the general public!

    I just visited my mom today and she will die soon. She has Alzheimer’s. One thing found to increase your chances of getting Alzheimer’s is watching Fox News or other similar propaganda. So this video made me feel great, especially after today. I also learned to speak Spanish and I know a tiny bit German.
    I keep encouraging my daughter to do the same. She’s in college and super smart. She’s smarter than me even after my extra learning. She was a born leader. She needs to get her social abilities back. I think if she’s this smart, if she became a musician and speak another language too, maybe her brain could cure cancer or something. She told me she was going to cure aides, cancer and migraines when she was in third grade. She needs to get on that soon lol.
