Has anyone used this approach to memorize music?
E.g., for playing an instrument.
I used to be able to remember plenty when I was young and practicing a lot. And certainly professionals can remember significant amounts (and not just the music, but performance details, fingerings, etc).
Seems like a different mechanism, relying less on visual and spatial associations, more on hearing. But perhaps it's similar in that you learn a structure and attach details to it.
Or, having developed a good memory for music, can we use it to help memorize random facts? Perhaps associating them with places in a song.
