was e, and that's a via time music can help stabilize children and help them retain enough energy. so they can grow. in rhythm is a capacity that we have from a very early age. somebody says to think that it's something that has survival value. oh, why less than i am? i am listening to him all making music together. i'm going to release his endogenous opioids in the bridal. i exit latch. oh, yeah. his oh. here at zurich university hospital, doctor tania corin and music therapist, frieda rica, hasselbeck, take care of premature babies at the neonatal intensive care unit. the infants were born up to 3 months to early in their condition has yet to stabilize and lead from ya. nazi humidity links to significant medical advancements in recent years and increasing number of pre term babies are able to survive off. i'm but we're seeing that then your logical development is a still impaired finding it. so we're looking for ways of supporting the brain. we the music therapy being chief among them. cannon, the 2 researchers use infrared sensors that look through the baby skin and skull. the technology enables them to measure the oxygen saturation in the brain and real time before, during, and after the music therapy. term infants tend to have unstable circulation and long spit are not fully formed. this frequently leads to reduced oxygen levels in the brain which can in turn have grave consequences. blue be a mesh again now since it is an event we want to see whether it leads to better or more stable blood circulation and retrans canal. and what exactly happens when someone thinks for the children of alpha in this case it's me, water. but it could also be the mother thing is that the singing is beneficial for the brains blood flow. and ultimately the brain development, affinity, korean, and fake long while in the womb fetuses here, their mother's heart beat and voice and even their blood flow sounds that provide a source of reassurance and security ah, with now be the time for me here. oh great. you wanna hon, since daughter has been in the intensive care unit since she was born 15 weeks early, being permanently exposed to external silence and other stimuli here translate to stress for little mia, but she's been making good progress. thanks also to the music therapy. ah, this instrument called a loaner chord has been tuned to the same pitch as the beeps of the monitoring equipment. the idea is to create a harmonious auditory atmosphere that mia can relax him, which could be tracked to be a her pulse and breathing ridge ah. as it, as warner caught his guns, which be said after this, mon accord was chosen and custom built because of that deep vibrations and v pots. your not endorsed, admonished and just like the blood flow heard in the womb is the sound comes in waves as a necessary, their clang as van famished as cows and fumbled as van fanning. mm. ah. with the music and as vibration, it's kind of i could close my eyes and even with the stress that i had and just come down and let her come down because she could hear my heart beat going slower and and she could breathe better. so i think it's really benefits for both. both of us, like a hostile back and her t monitored activity in the brains of 40 premature babies with the help of magnetic resonance imaging, or m r. i's. half of the children were given music therapy twice a week, the other half, not as fun to is thus via. interestingly, in some cases, we saw anatomical changes after just 10 therapy sessions. and the brains of those children who had music therapy saw significantly better development than those in the control group. and this was in areas that are important for language and movement, but also for academic performance and socio emotional behavior abba, abba offish. lisha ly stool owned out through us, looked at emerald sonata file size. this kindergarten is one of a kind in the german capital berlin. ah, once a week the children are treated to a concert by professional musicians. today's special guest is elena basket over world renowned pianist and the wife of conductor daniel barton boy. the initiator of the music based kindergarten, his idea was music education, but rather education through music and open to all children. and consequently, the kindergarten has become quite the diverse place. music. good music connects the souls, but it doesn't need language. it's the universal medium that makes people happy. and just coming here makes me happy when she had loved to be a child in this kinda gotten the gardens on. oh, oh, oh, oh oh, oh, even for the youngest once every day here begins with music. various studies have shown that music and above all rhythm are beneficial to language developmental. oh, yes ma'am. ah, o parents of the children enrolled here have roots from over 20 different nationalities singing and making music help the little ones communicate with each other and give structure to the days activities at the music kindergarten. oh, using them when it got to get the thing when we sing, when we go out or wash our hands, the kids sing before they learn to speak. a classic example, our kids who speak no german when they come to kindergarten. in the 1st week, they just stand and watch out in the 2nd that they start copying the sounds. and in the 3rd, they're singing all the songs. we see time and again how they learn language by a music cabinet is profit. we provide them here at the mock splunk institute for human cognitive and brain sciences in leipzig, daniela's i'm law is looking at how our brains processed language and music. she's discovered a range of common factors with a key role played by the melody of a language called the property then can the of the video called the 1st link children listen to once they're born is the rhythm and melody of their native language. is he not? some guy used very specific features such as melodic line or pauses to determine where a would begin and end begin on for i bought. and if we now assume that it's crucial to learn the rhythm of language, and that music also contains a certain rhythm, the condition. it suggests that children who undergo musical therapy will have a better perception of rhythm and not only musically, but also with language. so now in translating music rhythm and sounds into movement, both trains our senses and enhances our motor skills that helps children to develop their cognitive skills, improving their learning, thinking and memory, and their general perception. music mom and not just a spin, msf who is making music, affects the brain, especially if you start early on before the age of 7 at kindergarten. age is what active music making has been shown to strengthen the brains order tree and motor centers. the more tools are the grey master and the order tree centers becomes denser while the white mash a connect into 2 half of the brain. the neural highways grow stronger d him have met enough up into the neuropsychologist studies also examined the minds of professional musicians. she's devised a special miniature piano that enables her to monitor which regions of the brain are active with her subjects. make music d. okay. it's do you okay to do this? yes. in a moment, you'll see a pair of hands on the monitor, and we want you to copy what they're playing on the piano. ok. good. done, gets moved. here we go. yeah, wonderful, musica immaterial, usually asked are musicians in the m r, i scan it to play short melodies that had a regular structure, but not every time. sometimes we surprised them with the code that didn't fit it on the seat. and you can see in the peachy, he's getting slower and less fluid because the grammatical rules in his brain telling him to play something different. that's due to these grammatical patterns being anchored in the musician's brain. they dictate to his fingers how to move. daniela's ambler suspects, but this musical grammar is processed in the brain exactly like languages here. the hot sentiment d by music. these order 2 centers are active even when the musician plays piano without hearing any they talk to and sent them here. and these motor centers are active, even when he's only listening without playing the other shock, a copy we see a strong coupling between these 2 regions and appear. the grammatical center is active regardless of whether the musician is hearing or playing something bounds emphasis. howls become, does musica biology test showed that musicians follow the grammatical rules of music and to activate the same grammatical centers in the brain? as when hearing language and using chromatic will roll daddy camacho from reagan and then it it. so i do that, ah, the urge to move to music is a phenomenon that's been studied by peter voiced, a danish jazz musician and brain researcher, who's been studying the impact of rhythm and music on our motor skills. schuman brain is specifically good at predicting the future. so when, for instance, we moved to a pete 123412. then the brain is actually heard it giving us a model for predicting the next beat. what rhythm does is that it tries to make something that is not quite as predictable, something like that do do, do, do, do ill introduce all these small breaks, which we call simple patients. and that is what makes us our brains interested in this because it can't predicted completely, ah, ah, these beats in between, i actually make a prediction error in the brain. the body tries to correct that. well, his feet still don't. i'd consider the to those who try to don't don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't. so that's basically why we moved to music. in my think crazy with one well known example as happy by for l. williams. an extremely catchy song that plays well with our expectations. it uses rhythmical ideas called syncopations, which occur between the beats. the reason why we like to dance to this music is that it has the same patience in the melody. kern, sam, happy clap along. if you feel like a room with out of roof, if a rhythm is really simple, like a mention of, if we do not want to move to it. if it's too complex, kick, the good book that we cannot find the structure of the music, and we're not interested in it either. but right in the middle, there's sort of a sweet spot, ah, ah, most people really enjoy moving to use it. and probably this has something to do with the neurotransmitter though for me. because we know that domain is both a new transmitter that makes us a little bit high, gives us a little bit of this high, but also helps us moving neuro scientist. tom fritz has invented a device called the gym and combining jamming with jim. it turns the user's movements into music with cutting edge technology. it's a workout instrument that can be played like a musical instrument. hotman still styrofoam, knock laughter, just 6 to 10 minutes. you get an elevated mood for a sustained period of time. similar to what athletes call a runners high enough except that they run for half an hour after 6 months of training. and here people can enjoy this runners high after just 10 minutes. thanks to this combination with music, these are coming out soon. music in studies with rehab patients from various areas of medical treatment have shown the ability of gym and to increase endurance and pain tolerance. what researchers now also want to find out is whether it can also boost performance among professional athletes. vasa, via let's, this message is the one we're ultimately measuring up is the duration from lift off to landing in. that also reflects the jump height. um, it can be in and this actually enables us to examine physical performance each kind autism test subject. nadine marla has to jump as high as she can from a standing start 5 times before and after training with musical feedback. sports scientist, its v my on sets up the gym and devices. yeah, i am awesome activities ends on this is an activity sensor switch allows us to measure the speed of a movement of the flux, enzo suspended, and that it is attraction sensor. so when we pull on this resistance bands for been, it tells us how strong the traction is. so we can influence the music and was the conferences lose a few go? oh, look, no 1st just pulling a match . that combination of physical exertion and making music activates the reward system in our brain with people suffering from addictions, gym, and can cause a feeling of euphoria which helps to reduce their cravings. ah, patients with chronic pain become less anxious about painful movements and the pain itself. researchers suspect there's a connection to an increased release of endorphins. happiness hormones that act like the bodies own pain inhibitors and increase their motivation. ah, as i used finishing come already pretty naked, but i want to carry on trying out the music, the song to sounds and the melodies. oh lou im spot. it's open every i believe that's who in both sports and recovery when the aim is to train our individual capacity. she bought a school in sports. yeah. it's obviously about athletes wanting to go faster, higher further in. and it's basically the same with patients. yeah. stroke patients will quickly reach their limit with unilateral weight training planing with us and the point is pushing things that extra bit further. no why todd is expensive. also dean so, and this is nothing. if you look at the 1st 5 again, the last 5 jumps, these, these are longer healing ana is missouri and i was pretty skeptical sharing a gun. it's always very difficult to enhance performance in missouri, especially with only such brief measures was entered and so on. but what we've seen off to just one test, personal branding of the certainly promising a few 1st present us v as in, is thus via shanella for better home physical ova. what we're seeing is an astonishingly rapid improvement. and both physiological and cognitive term was is and if we do that on a daily basis during convalescent, actually a be done soon, it means patients being able to repeatedly push out their maximum individual performance yoga. indeed, when lexie mine performance, i don't know. we think this will become a very meaningful concept for rehabilitation in the future. concept, fluidity of the tents, eulu, inadequate them, ah, music can change the neural activity in the areas of the brain that shape our emotions. if on curse is looking into how that can help treat illnesses. ah, nina t, the muscle negative emotions and moods glow call powers of self healing of a bit of what we now know was he is the music can only show mon, with fireworks and the bright have fall from come. oh, aunt visa can these changes to the brain's neurotransmitters can, can have a positive effect on both our mood and all hell. often focus on music indirectly released as hormones. such a serotonin oxytocin and doping me, they can influence the vegetative nervous system, which largely without conscious action regulates the bodies, vital processes from our breathing and heartbeat to blood pressure and metabolism. if on kush has conducted countless studies in which participants had a range of music played for them from sad to up beat or exciting them, the researcher measured their respective emotional response exhibited. we have very strong evidence of music's ability to change particular emotions and certain structures of the bride can be. so we are able to conclude which signals are neurotransmitters in the brain who can be changed by music and according to cushion . there are 4 systems in the brain that regulate our emotions. in the cerebrum, music activates or subconscious, and the pleasure center, the source of feelings, both pleasure and pain in the brain stem. the activating system controls vital functions and organs. music can have a relaxing stress inducing impact to these systems, which all influence each other. they then activate neurotransmitters in the process, triggering feelings of happiness in a similar style to sex, recreational drugs or food, or music can as such, have an energizing or calming effect. it can make a scare or boost our confidence news . it travels from the inner ear via the auditorium to the activating system in the brain. st. out. a network of neurons here regulates our sleep, wake rhythm, deactivation of this courage center, pissed off on coach calls. it leads us to feeling everything from calm and relax too exhausted or sick. activating it makes us feel fit, refreshing, or confident. and he pulled the teeth clean and the music and modern. if we play music that's positive or happy sounding and encouraging panels does, it can help us to break through our negative thoughts spirals, depression, we can use music to regulate our emotions and experience more positive feelings to the whole good vibrations, so to speak, vibrations, votes, those are the and i said 202 loop. ready no, oh, ending amazon music man, and then listening to making music together, release his indulgence. opioids doesn't please, a messenger substances in the price that both reduce pain and elicit, very positive emotions even will soon have. and they make us feel more connected to other people and us humans under the mentioned stacker forbidden food. me me thought. so they say, oh oh, i'm of demetrius, carmen says runs and outreach project called mid mazique inferencing stay in via we're missing here. music is used to provide emotional 1st aid to children, many of whom have experienced the trauma of having to flee their homelands home or even the horrors of war. not all of the scars they bear are immediately apparent. yeah. think up. thank you. i think up thing in here, this is a guided bus. you are as you believe, it doesn't matter what you've been through here or where you're from. i mean, those aren't questions. we address name of having been refugees. i'm. i like our participants and their families have learned how serious and valuable life is for us lameness. aunt duffy kennedy's if a town and i trust that they understand that they're safe here hasn't. that's very important for us. does we leave everything that happened beforehand at the door for her policy? so we can focus solely on music for a couple of hours. if you had think a new one on the music? ah, honestly kinda when the children get the chance to try out a variety of instruments and to find their own voice, shannon creating something beautiful by making music, for example, boosts people's self esteem. ah, the mid mark was each project as 11 centers in berlin, and near by potsdam helping young people to grow into their new society. with greater confidence, the mother, i saw riah muradi has been playing the clarinet with the orchestra for 2 years now . a soft, i've a shewn mice not having to play on your own. that's when sure. that's something you have to do to it could. it's so much nicer with the group. it sounds like and you feel nicer hot and not so a lot of money is she shalayna, i believe our clock 6 times and then we'll hold that note for 6 beats. okay. playing with people also means breathing together, moving to the beat in the same rhythm and working together. getting the strings to play in tune is no, we see task for beginners, violinist louisa, least and start already has some practice under her belt. whenever she and often you get to know each other, 3 music little without needing to talk, i'm doing it helps you become part of the group and be recognized as a member. ah, oh. oh, the orchestra conductor bridget canary, herself discovered the integrative power of music in her childhood. oh, voice gets on in its india i. i had a big move when i was 10 and it was really tough to find. that's when i started playing the viola. i love, which was where i met all my friends. it gave me a kind of new home. and now where ever i go in the world, when i hear an orchestra tuning, it feels like i'm back home to her. and i want to pass on that feel older on dusky for the fight, so sha
