Is musical memory spared over other memories in people with dementia? Lola Cuddy and Jacalyn Duffin have been testing that idea for eight years. On November 2, 2011 they described how this prize-winning research began with curiosity about a single patient and grew into a large study involving more than fifty people with dementia and hundreds of controls. Audience members had a chance to test their own skills and, of course, sing along.
