Music acquisition: effects of enculturation and formal training on development

"Enculturation of metrical structure, they argue, results from biological connections between movement and auditory areas of the brain."

And the vestibular system gets the credit for that.

Very important study, very cool.

Music and the Developing Brain

Ooh! Ooh! The Developing Brain: Birth to Age Eight by Marilee B. Sprenger. Whole book available free. Looks like a good one. Very important. I want to come back here and read more of it.

The Developing Brain: Nurture And Nature by philosopher Martin LeFevre. I like how he reminds scientists not to get too hung up on the "nature" side.
