You Are the Music

Do babies remember music from the womb? Can classical music increase your child’s IQ? Is music good for productivity? In this brilliant new exploration of the place of music in all our lives, music psychologist Victoria Williamson examines the many ways in which music affects us, from our first in utero experiences of sound through to adult life, and the part it plays in shaping who we are, as a species and as individuals. Join Williamson for a journey through the music of our lives, from the uniquely powerful musical experiences of adolescence to the amazing ways in which music training changes the brain. This upbeat, eye-opening book reveals as never before the extent of the universal language of music that lives deep inside us all.
