• I love the relationship that anyone has with music… because there’s something in us that is beyond the reach of words, something that eludes and defies our best attempts to spit it out. It’s the best part of us probably. - Nick Hornby Nicholas Peter John Hornby is an English writer and lyricist. He is best known for his memoir Fever Pitch and novels High Fidelity and About a Boy, all of which were adapted into feature films.

  • Why do we like music? In an interview with PBS Newshour, neuroscientist and opera singer Indre Viskontas explains the power of music and its effects on our brain. Her new book, How Music Can Make You Better explains what every great musician knows about a great performance. It involves building up tension to an eventual release. Because that taps into our pattern recognition apparatus in the brain. Our brain is trying to figure out what's going to happen next. So often, we love music that has a predictable pattern, maybe that we've heard before, but that either delays that release of tension like Barber's Adagio for Strings. You know the melody just weaves around the final climax over and over and over again. Or, where it surprises us. We think the melody is going to go in one direction and then it kind of goes in a different direction. Bohemian Rhapsody is a great example where we have one expectation of a result and then it changes. And it changes drastically. And that's one of the reasons people love that song. . . . . . . . . . . #communitychorus #musiclove #musicians #singingtogether #benefitsofmusic #MainLineSingers #choir #music #sing #vocals #singinggroup #harmony #choralmusic #choirsinging #traveltheme #musicaroundtheworld #benefitsofsinging
