Just a couple of Famous people influenced by music!
There have been many studies and tons of research to really determine if music has any positive/negative or any effects while people study. Research reveals that music helped Thomas Jefferson write the Declaration of Independence. It has been recorded, that when Thomas Jefferson had writer’s block and could not think of specific words he needed, he would play sit down and play his violin until the words found him. This example could just be a fluke and not have any scientific relevance in regards to the brain and music, but it does make you wonder if music, in fact, does have an influence on our brains.
Another example, when Albert Einstein, one of the smartest men in history, was in grade school, he did horrible and could not pass one class. His teachers said he was “too stupid too learn” and suggest his parents find him a job if they wanted to see him succeed in anything. His mother knew Albert was much more and enrolled him in violin lessons. After a few lessons, Albert excelled at his new instrument and played all of the time. Albert conquered his equations and problems by using his violin as a tool. Music was the key to Albert Einstein becoming one of the most intelligant man to ever walk this earth.
