Instant Genius is a bite-sized masterclass in podcast form. In this week’s episode, we talk to Adrianna Barton, cellist turned health writer.
She is the author of Wired for Music: A Search For Health And Joy Through The Science Of Sound (£18.99, Blackwells)
In this episode of Instant Genius, Barton delves into the science of how we learn music, addressing whether its best to learn an instrument as a child, if its ever to late too learn, and whether learning music is innate.
