The Power Of Music

In case you have not viewed the video “Old Man In Nursing Home Reacts To Hearing Music From His Era“, I suggest you carve out the 6 1/2 minutes to view it.

This video is document of the Music & Memory project that donates iPods to nursing homes and raises awareness about music as a form of therapy.

A documentary about the project entitled “Alive Inside” debuts in New York this week.

It’s hard not to get affected watching it and I suspect that sometime around the mid 2040′s, someone might slip some headphones on me and I’ll start to come alive once I hear the opening beats of  ”My Sharona”

To find out more about this project or to donate an old iPod click on this Music & Memory link.
