In the last years, studies about the cognitive effect of music have focused their search on activities and stimulations that modulate cognitive functions, memory included. The aim of the present article was to investigate the effect of musical learning and the use of focal musical interventions in verbal memory. Young musicians and non-musicians participated, who learnt a list of words, followed by participation in a musical activity of reproduction or improvisation, with a rest control group. Finally, memory was evaluated through two tasks (free recall and recognition) immediately and deferred (7 days later). The results obtained, through the analysis of covariance, indicated that musical proposals enhanced memory, whit differences between reproduction and musical improvisation. On the other hand, it was found that musicians exhibit a better performance in the mnemonic task than non-musicians. These findings allow us to identify the potentialities of music, specifically musical learning and exposure to focal proposals, as modulators of human cognition
