Brain organization for music processing. (2005, methodology): “However, using a similar MEG technique, Schneider and collaborators (Schneider et al. 2002) found that both the early activity evoked by pure tones and the gray matter volume of the anteromedial portion of Heschl’s gyrus were more than 100% larger in professional musicians than in nonmusicians.”

Networks of anatomical covariance (2013, background): “…to be true of focal metrics for individual nodes or edges such as centrality, degree or strength (Rubinov and Sporns, 2010) or network-wide metrics such as efficiency (Latora and Marchiori, 2001), modularity (Schwarz et al., 2008) and communicability (Crofts and Higham, 2009; Crofts et al., 2011).”
Musical training as a framework for brain plasticity: behavior, function, and structure. (2012, background): “Schneider et al. (2002) reported that both the volume of Heschl's gyrus and amplitude of an early MEG response originating from primary auditory cortex were largest in professional musicians and smallest in nonmusicians, and were also related to behavioral performance.”
Music training for the development of auditory skills (2010, background): “Musicians also show structural differences in the brain relative to non-musician”
Music, biological evolution, and the brain (2010, background): “There has been a good deal of research on structural brain differences between professional musicians and non-musicians (e.g., Elbert et al., 1995; Schneider et al., 2002; Bengtsson et al., 2005; Stewart, 2008), with recent research supporting the idea that many such differences can be explained by…”
Brain Structures Differ between Musicians and Non-Musicians (2003, positive): “1, 2) support the results of a recent study showing higher gray matter volume in this region in musicians, which was associated with neurophysiological source activity differences between professional musicians, amateur musicians, and nonmusicians while listening to tones (Schneider et al., 2002).”
