Auditory Attention Span


These days we are repeatedly hearing that the attention span of the young generation (iGen/Generation I) has reduced immeasurably and they can no longer focus on a task for more than a few minutes. Technology is, of course, the accused in this case, with instant messaging, instant shopping and the world of information at our fingertips. I’m not really sure where I stand on this but some musical experiences I've had recently led me to wonder if there might be some truth in the claim.
