Bread And Roses

At Bread & Roses every day, we are privileged to witness the healing power of music, and today scientists and neurologists are confirming what we’ve known for over 37 years: that “humans are hardwired to respond to music.”  

Listen to this June 1^st interview on NPR’s Talk of the Nation with Neal Conan, where he interviews Elena Mannes, author of The Power of Music: Pioneering Discoveries in the New Science of Song. Esteemed neurologist and president of the  Society for Music Perception and Cognition,  Ani Patel joins in on the conversation. There is also a link to the transcript, as well as an excerpt from the book - http://www.npr.org/2011/06/01/136859090/the-power-of-music-to-affect-the-brain.
