I'm interested in perhaps whether there might be a

Or maybe it's the other way around, like becoming a musician
causes you to become more ambitextrous?
Or maybe that only applies to those who play an instrument
that requires both hands, as in woodwinds, strings, percussion,
keyboards, etc? Have you polled any brass players????
Or singers????

And then, there's another way of looking at it. Maybe it's
a right brain/left brain kind of thing. Music seems to me to
be both intellectual and creative. So maybe if we use both
sides of our brains, it just makes sense that we could use
both hands equally well? Do I even know what I am talking
about?.........just sharing my thoughts here.

Just be happy I'm not telling any more worm stories. ;-)
