Anecdotally, some music helps me to concentrate. Some music helps me to concentrate on programming; other music helps me to concentrate on reading. Some music doesn't help me to concentrate at all (except for on the music itself). Based purely on my own personal experience, I would not expect any arbitrary music to help someone with any arbitrary cognitive tasks, but I'm not convinced that, at least for some people, there doesn't exist some music that can help them with some cognitive tasks. Admittedly, that's more ambiguous and open-ended than this present study. [EDIT: typo]
