“The familiar music might be causing an emotional arousal effect, and once the patient with brain damage is aroused, there is a small window that opens for increased communication and the brain responds to the name,” suggests Carsten Finke, an expert at Charite Medical School in Berlin, Germany, who was not involved in the study.

　　So is Perrin’s music waking some form of consciousness in the people with brain damage? “I haven’t come across any responses like this to music before and it’s too early to conclude that it has any therapeutic effects in these patients,” says Adrian Owen at the University of Western Ontario in London, Canada.
