MUSIC AND PSYCHOLOGY

    
Among the psychological effects of music, the most pronounced ones are the behaviour and temperament of the individual. Emotions, feelings and thoughts are highly influenced by listening to music. The emotional experience derived from music has a powerful effect on the formation of one’s moral and intellectual outlook. Musical activities lead to the development of imagination and creative thinking. Singing or playing an instrument provides better sense of proportion, finer perception and a positive outlook. Shyness, aggressiveness and many such characteristics have been normalised by music. Mere humming of musical tones may help one overcome loneliness. Music has an ability to inspire and enthuse the listener and performer, thus acting as an important and powerful weapon on his emotional well-being.
