About Nature Of Music: Beauty, Sound And Healing
Product Description An important book that answers how music affects your mood and how music affects your brain Music has a profound influence on our lives; affecting how we think, how we act, how we feel-even who we are. By learning more about the intimate relationship between music and ourselves, we can begin to harness that power and better our lives. A classical pianist, Draper writes about the ways in which the great works of the classical canon can help us cope with grief, give dimension to the mysteries of beauty and faith, aid us in recovery from illness, inspire us to create, or just give us a boost of energy. This unique guide includes an extensive music bibliography with selections to suit moods, calm nerves, inspire, and heal. Anyone from the novice to the aficionado will find new ways to hear music as they never have before. Review “Draper’s love for music is contagious. She provides a useful set of listening exercises, or music breaks, at the end of each chapter, as well as an extensive ‘listening bibliography’ for enhancing every aspect of life, from work to sex.” Publishers Weekly “A lovely, lyrical, elegantly useful guide for all of us, healthy or ill, who want to reap full benefit from the wonderful world of music.”Barrie R. Cassileth, Ph.D., Chief, Integrative Medicine Service, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center “Mystics say that we are music, and poems are rough notations for that music. This book will send you back to the music you love.”Coleman Barks, poet and translator of The Essential Rumi About the Author Maureen McCarthy Draper, a classical pianist and music teacher, presents music retreats for the Guild for Psychological Studies both in San Francisco and from her home in the Santa Cruz mountains, using live music, poetry, and art. The Nature of Music is her first book.
