What is hydergine and piracetam ?

Yes, the standard view is that learning does strengthen 
the connections b/n some neurons (in the learning 
areas of the brain) and this may entail 
an increase in dendritic connections as well. 
Maybe not new dendrites but an increased branching 
and contact points on already existing dendrites.
 
BTW, "dendrites" is derived from the latin 
for "small branches".

Yes, the combination of reading music 
(mainly left brain activity) and playing the music 
trying to express the emotions in them 
(mainly right brain activity) and 
putting it all together with the physical movement 
of the fingers / arms necessary to play the instrument 
is highly integrative activity.  :))
 
And one signifying "intelligence".  ;))
 
Best regards,
 
Amanda.
