The room was flooded in darkness, but not all was still. A baby was giggling amidst indecipherable whispers. Suddenly, as the whispers stopped, the baby cried. Immediately, footsteps began pacing across the floor. With the new sound of shrill anxious breathing, the baby screamed. A match was stuck, illuminating a hand gripping a blood stained butcher knife. A candle was lit, placed in a candle holder hanging from the ceiling, flickering as it swung back and forth. The light pushed back the…

Therapeutic listening is a novel concept that also provides musical stimulation for increasing various skills, as described by Frick and Montez (2005): Therapeutic listening uses developmental and sensory integration frameworks, uses the organized sound patterns inherent in music, uses music that is electronically altered to elicit a specific response, focuses on postural organization and breath regulation (core), and provides a catalyst for eliciting emergent skills (p. 2).

art or science of combining vocal or instrumental sounds to produce beauty of form, harmony, melody, rhythm, and expressive content." But music isn't really a science, we can all create music. What one person perceives to be beautiful in the terms of music, may be seen as screeching Devil’s music to others. Music is more than a science or art; it is expression, and it is soul. Any man or woman with a tone deaf partner knows how crazy someone can sound while singing. Yet even though they both…

This movement, called sound waves, keeps going until they run out of energy (Carson. B, 2014) . Sound goes in waves from a transmitter to…

this little hammer strike the corresponding string to create a sound. This instrument is known as the piano. With 88 different keys on the piano you can imagine just how many melodic sounds it could create. But how did the piano come to be? Or better yet, who created the piano you may wonder. Well, it all began with an Italian keeper of instruments named Bartolomeo Cristofori.

Take a moment and imagine that you are in a class listening to a biology lecture. For many of you, the sound of the instructor’s voice is your main point of focus, as it should be. As a normal functioning person, you are able to drown out unnecessary noises and focus your attention. Now, I want you to imagine hearing the instructor’s voice, a humming bird in the window, a pen clicking, a person whispering in the back of the class, a siren from outside, and the pitter patter of footsteps in the…

voices only instruments and lacks imagination or inspiration. This kind of music also most times just sounds like instruments playing which is drab. On the other hand, you have absolute music which often uses tonal colors of musical instruments to imitate sounds. These sounds can often be of everyday things or noises you would hear. For example nature’s wind, rain, and thunder as well as the sound of animals and mankind including tools and machinery. Now would you rather hear just instruments…
