The Science of Music ... or the Music of Science?

I really enjoyed this short clip and would like to hear back from you - growing up "they" (whoever the mysterious they are) reckoned if you took math and also played an instrument, albeit badly, that your math skills would be better. Similarly if you were a good musician, your musical skills would be improved by doing math, albeit badly...
I don't know how or even if this works?
What Would Jesus Drive? Well, God preferred an old Plymouth, "God drove Adam and Eve out of the garden of Eden in a Fury"; Moses was said to ride a motor bike, "the roar of Moses’ Triumph is heard in the hills", while the apostles would carpool in a Honda, "the apostles were in one Accord".

Thank you for the link: it gave me new insights
That Bobby McFerrin thing was amazing, thank you.
Everything makes more sense now that I've stopped believing.
