Actually, I would...
MENSA covered this a couple years ago (endlessly, like everything MENSA discusses...)
Musicians, especially if they can read sheet music are better computer programmers, better at complex process planning and better at complex assembly/testing.

Apparently the musician brain has developed crossovers beteen hemispheres specific to complicated/sequential planning, connecting the 'Creative' side to the
'Mechanical' side.

All that, and I can't play the radio...
Second grade, St. Martha's Elementary. Never could read sheet music then and still can't. I guess over a 40 year career of EE I should be glad I survived those final years where I was finally forced into writing some programming languages. Interesting also that my brother with his masters in the arts can read, write and play music, as can two sisters but none of them can grasp a programming language. While never proficient at programming I did OK or good enough but could never read, write or play music. Beats the heck out of me?
