Emoti*** are more manageable when music gives them an objective reality oustside us.A seventeenth-centwy spanish king had to hear a celebrated tenor,Farinelli,sing every day before he conisdered himself to meet his court .Are we so different,when a few minutes of Bach ,Mozart,or Beethoven can bring us back into balance and reestablish our sense of the essential goodness of life?We may not understand what comes over us ,why our body relaxes o***hy our heart melts at the sound of a certain melody or chord change.But when music puts us in harmony with our deepest nature we feel more authentic,more fluid and resp***ive.

This field guide shows us how we can harness that power to help us cope with grief, give dimension to the mysteries of beauty and faith, aid us in recovery from illness, inspire us to create,help us to know ourselves better, or just give us a boost of energy--even if we don't know the difference between a sonata and a fugue.

Book Description

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 relati***hip between music and ourselves, we can begin to harness that power and better our lives. A classical pianist, D******rites 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 selecti*** 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.

"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)

From Publishers Weekly

A pianist offers a classical music lesson with New Age overtones in this look at the healing power of music. The first half of the book contains a concise explanation of how to listen to music and defines musical terms like pitch and dissonance. But when D***r sounds off on music's power to "balance the emoti***, restore equilibrium and positively affect ou***ell being" (she recommends an "emotional shower of music"), some readers may want to tune out. In her attempt to maintain a breezy tone, D***r is a bit too fast and loose with the science behind her asserti***. She makes un***ed statements like "numerous studies have shown that... we learn bette***hen thinking is linked to feeling" and tells the unsubstantiated story of a teache***ho recovered her eyesight through daily doses of Debussy. Still, D***r'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 ***ect of life, from work to ***. Asterisks throughout the text mark pieces that are on the book's companion CDs, available separately from Spring Hill Music. (Feb. 1) Forecast: Don Campbell popularized the idea that music has discernible, positive effects on learning and development in The Mozart Effect (1998), a sleeper that has attracted legi*** of fans. Though Campbell's blurb on this book has a generic ring, it should help guide his readers to D***r's effort to extend his ideas on the benefits of music into the realm of emotional health.

From Booklist

Music both expresses moods and emoti*** and evokes them from listeners. The right music at the right time can change one's emotional state from, say, depression to elation, from sadness to joy. Employing her own life experiences and those of others with whom she works as a music teacher, pianist, and presenter of music therapy techniques, D***r describes how music relates to nature, the psyche, and the expression of mood. Citing numerous musical examples, many of which are on two CDs that may be separately ordered, she discusses musical form, tonality, and harmony, and shows how they were used by composers of the last three centuries. She then c***iders how to listen to music and to let it change one's mood, and suggests various listening exercises to facilitate the experiences she discusses. Easy to read, the book thus neatly introduces the ways in which music is c***tructed and how music can help restore order and happiness in one's life. Recommended especially for those who want to cope bette***ith frenetic present-day society.
