quote:What may have started out as a neuron cluster that responded equally to sights, sound, taste, touch and smell becomes a specialized network. So, too, may music and speech have started in us all with the same neurobiological origins, in the same regions, and using the same specific neural networks. With increasing experience and exposure, the developing infant eventually creates dedicated music pathways and dedicated language pathways
Thank you for the info regarding the MRI.
I knew about Ravel's medical problems, but I did not know that they inspired him to write Bolero.
It does go a bit in circles.
