Music and well-being

 Music and well-being

Everyone knows a piece of music that moves, calms or energises you. Why does music have such a great impact on people? Why does it influence our well-being, even our sense of happiness? Music sociologist Dr Julian Schaap (Erasmus University) investigates how music can bring us closer together (and to ourselves), but also drives us apart. He explains why Mozart does not make everyone happy. A heavy metal fan really needs something else for that! In cooperation with the Netherlands Student Orchestra, which will give a concert at Muziekcentrum Enschede on Wednesday 21 February at 20:00. More info: www.nso.nl

This program is in Dutch.
