“Keyboard players have a more mirrored use of both hands and fingers when playing,” Iballa Burunat, the lead author of the study, told New Scientist. “Therefore, they are more likely to have synaptic symmetry than those playing stringed instruments.”
Very interesting study! Did you know that each hand is controlled by a different side of the brain? By playing piano, you connect the halves of your brain in a more meaningful way than just about any other instrument. Music changes the brain and all for the better~ are you ready to get more musical and set your brain on a higher course? The Key of One is here to help! Learn to understand music through the piano and achieve your musical dreams. It’s not as hard as you think it is and it’s truly rewarding to connect with the piano and make music.
