bp's science: the power of music

This is a clip from a documentary, Alive Inside, shown at the latest film festivals.  It shows (and continues to support my belief in) the power of music. This clip is worth your 6 minutes.  I really couldn't believe it. 




The narrator on is Oliver Sacks.  He writes some interesting stuff on the brain.

Wow! Thanks for sharing that clip. That is amazing. It makes me want to fill my home more with music and sing more with my kids.

After watching that it reminded me of the show on NPR about it. I called a friend whose husband has Alzheimers and told her about it. She hadn't heard. She said they listen to a lot of music. I wondered with her if it is something personal about the earphones...I hope she will try it. She told me that lately he had been sitting slumped with his chin on his chest.

I saw this clip some time ago and I'm still blown away by it. The brain is an amazing organ, but what really strikes me is the that the soul seems to be even more amazing.
