[edit]Is this page's topic really notable? It looks to me like a plug for a single scientific study---by its own authors, I suspect.
- I am the primary author of the article, and I am not associated with the study. Did you look through the references? It was covered by an insane number of news sites. Sign your comments. Gaijin42 (talk) 04:25, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
2014 update
[edit]Repetition of the study/experiment, by the same authors, using 12 violins. Will work on an update section
