Music and rhythm as basic to physiology, is not surprising. In high school, several of our top students who went to MIT, CalTech, the Ivy League, eventually went into medicine, engineering, mathematics, anything but music. But they were in the band, orchestra and other musical forms. The music department suggested they go into music as a career, but it was only a hobby for them. As I started teaching part time, one class had seen students, and I found they all were good. They got As. I told this to a colleague who happened to know them, and was a music teacher. She informed me that music students had the highest GPA, and were among the best in any school.

I feel like our resident blues expert Greg Thomas probably knows some about this and would love to hear his perspective on it.

The power of music and rhythm to our basic physiology is undeniable and poorly measured in terms of the breadth of its potential significance to our overall functioning and a "symphony of emergence."
