There is ample evidence that watching someone perform certain actions triggers almost the same brain regions as performing the actions yourself, and I know of personal experience that listening to someone play an instrument you've mastered yourself is completely different than listening to an instrument being played that you do not know how to play.
From there one can easily expect that only listening will also trigger those same brain regions as watching as listening does, but evidently your brain won't know what regions to activate if you haven't first allowed it to train doing the real thing.

Wait ... where was I going with this?
