Amen to all of the above as I have been seeing this effect for years now. I will also add that music has a similar effect on mentally challenged children of all ages as I am also fortunate enough to see this first hand as well as I try my best to play for the activity centers in my area as often as I can.

Of course the wonderful effect it has on the musicians is harder to describe, so I'll just say for me personally “it's cool” to say the least, others mileage may vary.
