1. Think of a piece of music you really like. What does it do for you? Can you say why you like it?
2. Why do some people want to dance when they hear music? What's the connection?
3. Is there any culture, anywhere, that has no music?
4. If you became bedridden, unable to move, but your mind was still all there, what music would you most want to hear?
5. Do very very smart people have any idea what music is DOING for us?
Or is it as mysterious as love and ice cream?
Is it possible we need it?
Happy Karaoke

As you know, "Music Therapist" is now a profession so healing is recognized in the medical world as having healing qualities. During periods of stress or times of depressed mood music has personally kept me sane. It is now believed that infants who are exposed to classical music even while yet in the womb, are imprinted for life by that experience. I believed this prior to my third son being born and played classical music - mostly Mozart prior to and during his birth and he turned out to be what my late husband described as "very talented" in music. He studied piano, saxophone, and guitar. He played in a jazz band for a while prior to becoming a father. As for the science behind this, I confess I am ignorant.
