Аннотация:This review outlines essential facets of current understanding of the neurobiological basis for high-level music performance ability (MPA). Here we address four main questions. (1) What is MPA, the definition from the historical and current musicological standpoint? (2) Which neurophysiological, hormonal, heritable and educational factors determine the musician’s achieve-ment expert-level performance? (3) How does a high level of MPA come about? (4) What is the MPA role in nonmusical faculties? We address the first question by describing the structure of MPA including the sensorimotor integration, feedforward, and feedback in motor control pro-cesses. For the second question we review evidence for possible neuronal, hormonal and genetic-molecular mechanisms that may underlie or contribute to MPA. The issue of how MPA is devel-oped is discussed from “nature or nurture” perspectives and the role of individuality, education and deliberate practice as well as the environmental factors. We address the third question by reviewing evidence for possible neurobiological mechanisms that may underlie or contribute to expert music performance, including the integration of sound and movement, motor control pro-cesses, individuality, and motor imagery. Here we’ll outline several issues that are vital to advanc-ing the “peak performance” of MPA. The fourth question focuses on the investigation of how music performance training can influence cognition and action. As a results of a literature review we propose that reactivity of such neurophysiological traits as the EEG individual alpha peak fre-quency in rest, reactivity of alpha bandwidth, upper alpha power, and forehead EMG to musical execution, together with state dependent saliva progesterone level could differentiate the level of music performance skills.Keywords: music performance ability, sensorimotor integration, feedback in motor control, EEG, EMG, hormones, heritability, education, practice, individuality, motor imagery
