MALE, Hester van der  e  WIESE, Elizabeth Batista Pinto. Neuropsychological Bases for the Development of Musical Talent. TransForm. Psicol. (Online) [online]. 2009, vol.2, n.1, pp.38-51. ISSN 2176-106X.

This literature review aims to explain the neuropsychological base of the development of outstanding musical ability. In a discussion on the notion of talent, relevant research is linked to respectively the biological base of talent, early signs, talent identification, key factors in successful musicianship, and the domain specific character of talent. The main finding is that musical talent, which seems to be partly innate, must be nurtured. This process is reflected by the neural correlates underlying high musical ability.
