Yes. The ability to read sheet music, sight read, and improvise solos does increase intelligence. A national survey showed that musicians genarally have a higher IQ thna people who don't play instruments.

ex: Mozart, he was able to compose an Opera in Italian (a language he did not even speak) at a very young age (somewhere around 11 i think) and was also able to play violin at age 2 (his father was a violinist so he grew up in a very musical household)
