Previous studies suggest that pre-attentive auditory processing of musicians differs
depending on the strategies used in music practicing and performance. This study aimed at …

When compared with individuals without explicit training in music, adult musicians have
facilitated neural functions in several modalities. They also display structural changes in …

Using electrophysiology, we have examined two questions in relation to musical training–
namely, whether it enhances sensory encoding of the human voice and whether it improves …

To increase our understanding of auditory neurocognition in musicians, we compared
nonmusicians with amateur band musicians in their neural and behavioral sound encoding …

Musicians' processing of sounds depends highly on instrument, performance practice, and
level of expertise. Here, we measured the mismatch negativity (MMN), a preattentive brain …

Musicians show enhanced auditory processing compared to nonmusicians. However, the
neural basis underlying the effects of musical training on rapid plasticity in auditory …

Learning, attention and action play a crucial role in determining how stimulus predictions are
formed, stored, and updated. Years-long experience with the specific repertoires of sounds …

Musicians' skills in auditory processing depend highly on instrument, performance practice,
and on level of expertise. Yet, it is not known though whether the style/genre of music might …

This study investigates the effects of music training on brain activity to violations of melodic
expectancies. We recorded behavioral and event-related brain potential (ERP) responses of …

Pre‐attentive registration of aberrations in predictable sound patterns is attributed to the
temporal cortex. However, electrophysiology suggests that frontal areas become more …
