More to the point, I am familiar with the music research.  The work that
was done did not take into account the sophistication (musical) of the
students.  If a student is a musician, composer or sophisticated listener,
he/she will not necessarily"tune out" the music to background but rather
"listen" to the music...therefore, may not be able to do something else,
like draw or paint.
