Music & Brain - by Manju Patel


              

Music can move us to the heights or depths of emotion.  It can lift us out of depression when nothing else can.  It can get us dancing to its beat.  But the power of music goes much, much further.  Indeed, music occupies more areas of our brain than language does--humans are a musical species.”                                                     

  • Music is a powerful tool for language learning and retention.
  • Music supports, strengthens and develops brain cells and builds connections between the brain’s two hemispheres. It allows the individual to use various means, techniques and level of thinking.
  • Music helps us move some parts of our brain, which helps us think better.
