How Music Works In The Brain?
"The original part of memory is the memory of actions and procedures and sequences, starting with crawling and walking. This part of memory also includes musical and textual sequences." It seems to be involved in the way some tunes replay themselves in our minds even after we're tired of them. It may also account for the way that musical and textual memory tends to work best with long units of information - on whole phrases in sequence, rather than on individual notes and words."
