Music, the Brain, Medicine and Wellness, Part II

10/4/2012

 Continued ...
Day 2 ended with a concert by the Santa Fe Chamber Musicians that included Schoenberg's Chamber Symphony, conducted by Alan Gilbert, and the Mendelssohn Octet, performed by 8 outstanding musicians including members of the former Guarneri String Quartet, Alan Gilbert and his sister Jennifer (I later overheard Gilbert saying, "remind me never to play the violin right after conducting - it uses such different muscles...my hands feel like marshmallows")

Day 3 raised the question of how our new knowledge could be used to move the field forward and how to apply our work to the individual and the community. Berklee College Music Therapist Suzanne opened the day with music and demonstrated music's effect on reducing pain and stress and its ability to empower patients in hospital settings.

She was followed by a presentation and performance by violinist/educator Adrian Anantawan who presented "Music Moving Forward: Adaptation and Evolution," He spoke of his own journey of becoming a violinist, his work as a disability advocate, and his interest in making music accessible to all. Anantawan described a recent chamber music  performance  that included a young former violinist who was quadriplegic, yet still able to participate musically with the help of new computer programs. Following his remarks, Adrian concluded with a performance of Elgar's "Salut d'Amour."

The conference concluded with my speaking about Longwood Symphony Orchestra. I pointed out that there are few lawyers' orchestras, and no Wall Street Orchestras, yet there are several orchestras of medical professionals like Longwood Symphony Orchestra around the world. These orchestras are tangible examples of the developmental impact early music training has on the young brain.

At the end of the day, I stepped out of the Eldorado Hotel to explore Santa Fe. It is such a beautiful town filled with art galleries, public art, and music. It was also a craft fair weekend - the streets were blocked off to welcome the white tents of the many artists and artisans. I spent my last few hours in this magical town interviewing artists about their art and what inspired them.

Bravo to the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival and Conference co-Chairs who framed ... and achieved..these objectives:

"The overall goal of the Symposium is to bring “world class” scientists, physicians, healthcare professionals, and therapists to Santa Fe to interface with “world class” musicians, and, to present cutting edge research and
the state of the science in three areas of investigation:
1) how the development of the brain in early childhood and how cognitive development, language, emotion, and memory are influenced by various forms of music;
2) how music can be used to promote wellness and healing in patients with serious medical conditions including cancer, neurologic, developmental and cognitive disorders such as autism, and other chronic health conditions; and
3) how music promotes well-being in an individual and a community.

The creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of music vary according to culture and social context. Music ranges from strictly organized compositions, through improvisational music to aleatoric forms. Thanks.

Music can be divided into genres and subgenres, although the dividing lines and relationships between music genres are often subtle, sometimes open to individual interpretation, and occasionally controversial. Thanks.

Music and theatre scholars studying the history and anthropology of Semitic and early Judeo-Christian culture have discovered common links in theatrical and musical activity between the classical cultures of the Hebrews and those of later Greeks and Romans. Thanks.

There is music in everything. The nature is filled with music. We can find it in the flow of river, sound of birds and even in the heart beats! There are a lot of researches going on regarding the power of music to cure diseases!

One of the most important evolutionary steps made in the Classical period was the development of public concerts. The aristocracy would still play a significant role in the sponsorship of musical life, but it was now possible for composers to survive without being its permanent employees.
