According to prevailing views, brain organization is modulated by practice, e.g., during musical or linguistic training. Most recent results, using both neuropsychological tests and brain measures, revealed an intriguing connection between musical aptitude and second language linguistic abilities. A significant relationship between higher musical aptitude, better second language pronunciation skills, accurate chord discrimination ability, and more prominent sound-change-evoked brain activation in response to musical stimuli was found. Moreover, regular music practice may also have a modulatory effect on the brain's linguistic organization and alter hemispheric functioning in those who have regularly practised music for years. These findings, together with their implications, will be introduced and elaborated in our review.
根据普遍观点，大脑组织会受到练习的调节，例如在音乐或语言训练期间。最近使用神经心理学测试和大脑测量方法得出的结果，揭示了音乐才能与第二语言语言能力之间的一种有趣联系。研究发现，较高的音乐才能、更好的第二语言发音技巧、准确的和弦辨别能力以及对音乐刺激更显著的声音变化诱发的大脑激活之间存在显著关系。此外，长期的音乐练习可能也会对大脑的语言组织产生调节作用，并改变那些多年来经常练习音乐的人的半球功能。我们将在综述中介绍并阐述这些发现及其影响。
