Book excerpt: From the Nordic countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland) comes an exciting source of theoretical approaches, epidemiological findings, and real-life examples regarding the therapeutic and health-enhancing effects of music. Experts across fields including psychology, neurology, music therapy, medicine, and public health review research on the benefits of music in relieving physiological, psychological, and socioemotional dysfunction.

And the book’s section on innovative music-based interventions illustrates opportunities for incorporating musical activities into public health programs. Among the topics covered are: · Associations between the use of music, cultural participation and health-related outcomes in adult Scandinavian populations · Music practice and emotion handling · How music translates itself biologically in the body · Music as a forum for social-emotional health · Participation and partnership as core concepts in music and public health · Music therapy as health promotion for mothers and children at a public health clinic Music and Public Health will gain interested readers among researchers, teachers, students, and clinicians in the fields of music education and therapy, as well as researchers and students of public health who are interested in the influence of culture and the arts. The book also will be relevant to administrators in public health services.

Excerpt: ... influence of music oh health and life. part I. chapter I. General reflections on the melodic and harmonic character of music among different nations.--Influence of the tone of the voice. very nation has a music and a song of its---' own. All, without exception, according to their taste, their talent, and their customs, have made use of the organs with which they have been endowed by nature, and of the instruments invented by their own ingenuity. Among primitive nations, music, having neither rules nor laws, consisted only of melody, which is a succession of sounds gratifying to the ear; it is a pleasure of emotion and of sentiment, addressed to the heart. Harmony is a music of science and combination. It is the result of several sounds heard at once, which produce what we call accord. It affords a pleasurable sensation which is addressed to the understanding. As to rhythm, one of the three elements which are found in nature, it pervades all melody and imparts character to it. Martianus Capella, a compiler of the fifth century, wrote at that time: "Melody is the female, rhythm the male." For us, melody is the sketch, harmony the coloring, and rhythm the character." Music is not the same among all nations. Climate, customs, habits, a certain degree of refinement or of civilization, all impress the tones of melody with various characters. Northern nations express themselves very differently from those of the south, while eastern nations have quite another music from those of the west. The exposition of 1867, that immense caravansary, where all nations elbowed each other, that vast capharndum where the most diverse objects were crowded together pell-mell, has afforded us samples of the music of many nations.

This book was released on 2020-07-17 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music is one of the most universal ways of expression and communication in human life and is present in the everyday lives of people of all ages and from all cultures around the world. Music represents an enjoyable activity in and of itself, but its influence goes beyond simple amusement. Listening to music, singing, playing, composing and improvising, individually and collectively, are common activities for many people: these activities not only allow the expression of personal inner states and feelings, but also can bring many positive effects to those who engage in them. There is an increasing wealth of literature concerning the wider benefits of musical activity, and research in the sciences associated with music suggests that there are many dimensions of human life (physical, social, psychological—including cognitive and emotional) which can be affected positively by music. The impact that musical activity has on human life can be found in different processes, including a transfer of learning from the musical to another cognitive domain. Abilities that have been developed through music education and training may also be effectively applied in other cognitive tasks. Engagement in successful music activity may also have a positive impact on social skills and social inclusion, thus supporting the participation of the individual in collective and collaborative musical events. The promotion of social participation through music can foster many kinds of inclusion, including intercultural, intergenerational, and support for those who are differently abled. The aim of this Research Topic is to present a diverse range of original articles that investigate and discuss, in different ways, the crucial role that musical activity can play in human development and well-being.

This book was released on 2019-06 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades, there has been a major increase in research into the effects of the arts on health and well-being, alongside developments in practice and policy activities in different countries across the WHO European Region and further afield. This report synthesizes the global evidence on the role of the arts in improving health and well-being, with a specific focus on the WHO European Region. Results from over 3000 studies identified a major role for the arts in the prevention of ill health, promotion of health, and management and treatment of illness across the lifespan. The reviewed evidence included study designs such as uncontrolled pilot studies, case studies, small-scale cross-sectional surveys, nationally representative longitudinal cohort studies, community-wide ethnographies and randomized controlled trials from diverse disciplines. The beneficial impact of the arts could be furthered through acknowledging and acting on the growing evidence base; promoting arts engagement at the individual, local and national levels; and supporting cross-sectoral collaboration.

Download or read book Psychological Health Effects of Musical Experiences written by Töres Theorell and published by Springer Science & Business. This book was released on 2014-04-18 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about links between music and health. It focuses on music and public health, and, in particular, the potentially positive and negative effects of listening to and making music on the health of the general population. The book starts out by discussing the protection music offers against adverse effects of stress. It then discusses social aspects of music production and listening and examines religious music within the framework of social functioning. It offers insight into the physiological and psychological effects of music listening, the biological effects of singing, and the use of music in therapeutic situations and the rearing of children. The book concludes by discussing the significance of music for musicians and their health. Although it may seem that music has only good health effects, and therefore all professional musicians should be healthy, not all music effects are positive. The book describes situations in which music has negative health effects and makes clear that there is a pronounced difference between living with music for joy and to earn one ́s living from making music. In the latter situation, performance anxiety may become a factor that affects health adversely.
