“…Os achados sobre os impactos da música na terapia fonoaudiológica foram importantes, demonstrando a ampla abrangência destes efeitos, desde habilidades auditivas (de recepção da informação) (20) , de memória/cognição 12,[15][16][17][18][19] e até de fala propriamente dita (expressão da linguagem) (10,13,14) . Desta forma, a música e o canto são considerados como instrumentos facilitadores, na ativação do corpo caloso, harmonizando os hemisférios cerebrais, estimulando as áreas de Werneck e Broca, auxiliando na comunicação, fala, aprendizagem e cognição.…”

Introdução: A fonoterapia pode auxiliar na comunicação de quadros neurológicos, como Acidente Vascular Cerebral, Alzheimer, Parkinson, Esclerose Lateral Amiotrófica e Demências, podendo ser potencializada com a utilização de música associada. Objetivo: Investigar os efeitos da música na comunicação do idoso, baseado nos achados brasileiros. Métodos: A revisão bibliográfica foi estabelecida a partir de buscas realizadas nas bases de dados Google Acadêmico e Portal Regional Virtual Health Library, por meio dos cruzamentos dos seguintes descritores música, idoso e reabilitação. Resultados: As referências pesquisadas expressaram dentre os efeitos na comunicação, a melhora na sequencialização, verbalização, atenção, entonação, prosódia, e a estimulação neuronal, melhorando lateralização, sequência lógica, espaço temporal e memória. Verificou-se também a utilização de métodos como a terapia de entonação melódica, como instrumento de potencialização das habilidades comunicativas comportamentais e consideráveis ativações neuronais. Conclusão: Foi possível verificar que a música traz benefícios nas terapias fonoaudiológicas, em relação à reabilitação na comunicação, canto, fala, linguagem, melhora a prosódia, estimula a memória e a aprendizagem. Sugere-se que futuros estudos busquem padronizar protocolos para o acompanhamento a curto e longo prazo desses possíveis efeitos.

“…One interesting observation from Figure 1 in Coffey et al (2017a) is that there seems to be a nearly universal neurophysiological advantage for musicians during signal/speech in noise tasks when there is no background noise. Similarly, a recent music training study in older adults revealed that 6 months of music training could improve the ability to understand speech in loud multi-talker babble noise; however, the neurophysiological data (EEG and fMRI) revealed speech processing differences after musical training that were not impacted by the level of background noise, including when there was no background noise (Fleming et al, 2019;Zendel et al, 2019). Overall, this pattern suggests that the musician advantage for understanding speech-in-noise, may really be an advantage at understanding speech.…”

“…These enhancements are associated with both functional and structural differences in the brains of musicians compared to non-musicians (Kraus and Chandrasekaran, 2010;Herholz and Zatorre, 2012). Longitudinal studies have confirmed that at least some of these advantages are due to music training and not pre-existing auditory advantages (Fujioka et al, 2006;Lappe et al, 2008Lappe et al, , 2011Tierney et al, 2015;Dubinsky et al, 2019;Fleming et al, 2019;Zendel et al, 2019). One commonality between both the cross-sectional and longitudinal research is that musicians and those that are given music training as part of research are trained formally.…”

Multiple studies have demonstrated that musicians have enhanced auditory processing abilities compared to non-musicians. In these studies, musicians are usually defined as having received some sort of formal music training. One issue with this definition is that there are many musicians who are self-taught. The goal of the current study was to determine if self-taught musicians exhibit different auditory enhancements as their formally trained counterparts. Three groups of participants were recruited: formally trained musicians, who received formal music training through the conservatory or private lessons; self-taught musicians, who learned to play music through informal methods, such as with books, videos, or by ear; non-musicians, who had little or no music experience. Auditory processing abilities were assessed using a speech-innoise task, a passive pitch oddball task done while recording electrical brain activity, and a melodic tonal violation task, done both actively and passively while recording electrical brain activity. For the melodic tonal violation task, formally trained musicians were better at detecting a tonal violation compared to self-taught musicians, who were in turn better than non-musicians. The P600 evoked by a tonal violation was enhanced in formally trained musicians compared to non-musicians. The P600 evoked by an outof-key note did not differ between formally trained and self-taught musicians, while the P600 evoked by an out-of-tune note was smaller in self-taught musicians compared to formally trained musicians. No differences were observed between the groups for the other tasks. This pattern of results suggests that music training format impacts auditory processing abilities in musical tasks; however, it is possible that these differences arose due to pre-existing factors and not due to the training itself.

“…Indeed, a musicians' advantage for SiN perception has been reported by a number of studies in adults and children (Parbery-Clark et al, 2009;Strait et al, 2012Strait et al, , 2013Bidelman et al, 2014;Kraus et al, 2014;Slater et al, 2015;Baskent and Gaudrain, 2016). However, there are also a substantial number of studies that failed to find strong evidence in favor of advantages in musicians (Strait et al, 2012;Fuller et al, 2014;Ruggles et al, 2014;Boebinger et al, 2015;Fleming et al, 2019;Zendel et al, 2019).…”

Investigating the Effect of One Year of Learning to Play a Musical Instrument on Speech-in-Noise Perception and Phonological Short-Term Memory in 5-to-7-Year-Old Children

The benefits in speech-in-noise perception, language and cognition brought about by extensive musical training in adults and children have been demonstrated in a number of cross-sectional studies. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether one year of school-delivered musical training, consisting of individual and group instrumental classes, was capable of producing advantages for speech-in-noise perception and phonological short-term memory in children tested in a simulated classroom environment. Forty-one children aged 5-7 years at the first measurement point participated in the study and either went to a music-focused or a sport-focused private school with an otherwise equivalent school curriculum. The children's ability to detect number and color words in noise was measured under a number of conditions including different masker types (speech-shaped noise, single-talker background) and under varying spatial combinations of target and masker (spatially collocated, spatially separated). Additionally, a cognitive factor essential to speech perception, namely phonological short-term memory, was assessed. Findings were unable to confirm that musical training of the frequency and duration administered was associated with a musicians' advantage for either speech in noise, under any of the masker or spatial conditions tested, or phonological short-term memory.
