MUSIC & MEDICINE
Concerts for information and prevention

Plato states that education include physical exercise for the development of the body and music for the soul. Since ancient times it is clear how music is a necessary nourishment but also a balm - medicine for the soul. What is evident now, as it was back then, is that if body and soul are inseparable entities for man, then what benefits the one must benefit the other in the same way. Curiously, this also happens in reverse. In a perfect osmosis, that which waters and feeds the soul has a positive effect on the brain and body. The language of music, that goes straight to the heart without the need for filters, not only moves us, excites us, consoles us, makes us smile, makes us dream but also instils in us an energy, a real vital sap, a real state of physical wellbeing. When we listen to music, but more so for those of us lucky enough to be actively involved, playing an instrument for example; but even in the most simple forms, for example, whistling, singing, moving to a dance rhythm, it is then that we can feel in complete harmony with our body and ourselves. In effect, and this is perhaps the true, immense power of music, its fertile and positive thought is transmitted to the others, both near and far, as from an enormous sounding board, becoming a universal message.

The basic idea of the project is the production of a real and close union between scientists, highly respected doctors and representatives of associations who with great sensitivity and altruism, work in the fields of pathologies and problems of various types, together with established musicians who play at the end of each session. --- I would like to highlight that we are not talking about a traditional type of meeting but of a ‘dialogue’ with the public interacting with the speaker. Our aim is to have an experience of knowledge, an approach with utmost simplicity, positivity and frankness to current medico-social themes, without forgoing the universal and emotional message of beauty and hope that music and art generally have always had the power to transmit.

Each of us, over the course of our life, has had to fight against a deceitful enemy, that grasps us from behind and gets us when we least expect it. This enemy is illness, destabilizing us whether it affects us directly, or attacks a loved one, a friend, a relative. That is why talking about health, getting to know our body, its needs and its weaknesses, as broadly as possible, covering all age groups, becomes a necessary and essential enrichment. --- How many times do we delude ourselves that we can find it in a world where all too often we look for answers on the web, with the risk of getting unreliable advice, if not even damaging because it is unfounded. Instead, let us learn to take care of ourselves and of others too. Let us rid ourselves of the fear generated by ignorance that all too often, drives us away from others, as if those problems were not of our concern, as if we were miraculously immune to them.
