Neuroplasticity is defined as any structural or functional change in the central nervous system due to experience or adaptation to environmental pressures. (McFerran & Rickard, 2012) Recently, several studies have shown that music has an important impact on the human brain. There are many differences between the brains of musicians and non-musicians such as volume, connectivity, morphology, density and functional activity. (Merrett, Peretz, & Wilson, 2013) In recent decades, important research evidence has been found that uses music to induce neural plasticity. Since the 19th century there have been reports of some "anomalies" in the brains of musicians in autopsy examinations. In those days, these differences were considered the reason for musical abilities. (McFerran & Rickard, 2012) Today, observing the fact that musical experience is linked to the amount of practice, scientists have postulated that some adaptation of the brain should occur in response to training. (Jancke, 2009) As the impact of intensive training on the brain became better understood, the idea that differences in musicians' brains were more related to neural plasticity than genetic predisposition was strengthened. However, because not all children who receive music lessons will become professional musicians, it is difficult to determine whether or not musicians had atypical abilities during childhood. This literature review aims to analyze these findings and trends in musical neuroscience. The search included articles published within the last 10 years that responded to searches for the terms “music,” “brain,” and “plasticity” or “neuroplasticity” in the PubMed database. The impact of musical training in children has been studied extensively. In 2009, a longitudinal study showed that there is...... half of the paper ......., Soinila, S., Mikkonen, M., . . .
