Do you think that listening to certain kinds of good music can work as a placebo to help heal and cure some kinds of health problems?

Thanks, that is pretty good.

Need to find some good 'anti boredom' music for people who must spend a lot of time cooped up and alone.

Creepy, yikes.

That's pretty good masonry work, my friend.

 

  Thanks, Zack, but I can’t take the credit, I contracted out to have it done by professionals.

Well a'course!  Is there anything in particular you could recommend?

I've never been much of a music person. I've heard many different kinds of music that I like but I don't know what kind of instrument is playing. This post was edited by Kittigate at December 6, 2020 8:18 PM MST

Personally, I believe music's health benefits, in some ways, are all up to the individual person. Each individual may benefit from widely varying music styles and genres. I don't believe it's a "one size fits all" type of choice (though, I believe there are research studies indicating certain kinds of music tend to benefit in a general way - the famous "Mozart Effect" study, for example -- which, the last I heard, had been questioned in some ways, as far as its conclusions). 

As far as a recommendation, I guess I'd ask that, for me, who is to say what certain kind of music is "good"? A bad example -- some people find Camila Cabello wonderful -  but I find her singing style atrocious. ;)  

All right, thanks.

I'm having a challenging series of days -- much of what I've posted lately I've started secondguessing. I tire of so often of my thinking people might be mad at something I say. I hope my other reply here did not come across as short or curt. 

And, bear with me -- I'll share an example of music that, for me, goes beyond "good."

Composer Henryk Gorecki's Symphony No. 3 "Symphony of Sorrowful Songs"   (and only if David Zinman conducting the London Sinfonietta and soprano Dawn Upshaw are the musicians, the performance I'll share here if it posts)

And I can only recommend its superb quality if one listens to it in its entirety, in one sitting, without interruption - and the three movements total about 55 minutes.

One of my very best friends sent a recording of this performance to me - - I listened and the very first time I was in tears more than once.

If you don't know this, this is the first music to come to my mind that might be of the quality of which you might be searching.

Be Well,
WelbyQuentin
