The healing power of music is not just an empty phrase. What happens in the brain when we listen to, play, or experience music together? Renowned Swiss neurologist Professor Dr. Jürg Kesselring combines new findings from brain research with personal experiences in music and with musicians, and shows why music is far more than just sound. He has worked in the field of multiple sclerosis and also at the National Hospital for Neurology & Neurosurgery, Queen Square, London. He is an active member of the Board of the Music Academy Liechtenstein, where he regularly teaches masterclasses on “Music & Brain” and on “How to Deal with Success & Failure”. He has recently given talks at the renowned Chamber Music Festival in Lockenhaus, Austria.
