So, you want to sing, now what do you do? Well, let's see.
Listen to music to find what you like - check.
Find a chorus, choir, ensemble, quartet - check.
Get some music charts – check.
Okay, ready - set - sing! Hmmm. What else do you need? Oh ya, that's right - good vibrations!
Music starts as vibrations that form in sound waves, enter your ear and are converted into
electrical impulses that stimulate your brain. Not just with musical enjoyment, but with so
many other beneficial things. Music affects more areas of your brain than any other function
people perform! It can:
Improve your creativity, happiness and language skills.
Healing powers of music can decrease pain and anxiety.
Even help heal some neurological disorders like Alzheimers, Tourettes, and Autism.
