Neuroscientists study the relationship between opera and brain functioning in the light of new findings in the fields of neurophysiology, neuroimaging, cognitive science and neuro-musicology; clinicians investigate the therapeutic potential of music, especially in the field of treatment and rehabilitation of individuals with neurodegenerative diseases; medical historians analyse the representation of diseases and those who cure diseases within operas; occupational doctors report descriptions of diseases that affect workers in the opera world and particularly focus on psychiatric and psychological alterations. Opera, with its instrumental and vocal accompaniment, is considered the most complete form of theatrical performance. However, little is known about the mechanisms of brain activity under the influence of melodrama on singers, musicians, and listeners. The use of neuroimaging techniques has enabled a better understanding of the neuronal mechanisms and circuits involved during an opera performance. Over the past 20 years, melodrama has increasingly been used as a therapeutic approach in various neurological and neuropsychiatric pathologies, such as depression, cognitive impairment, and even coma. The book also discusses the ways in which melodrama affects professionals involved in music and interventions to reduce or alleviate occupational diseases, leading to improved health and higher life satisfaction. The ultimate goal is to improve therapeutic interventions in neurological diseases and professional disorders, relying on solid neuroscientific data. This book will be of great interest to neurologists, neurobiologists, psychiatrists, occupational doctors and therapists in music. 410 0$aNeurocultural Health and Wellbeing,$x2731-4472 606 $aNeurology 606 $aPsychiatry 606 $aNeurosciences 606 $aNeuropsychology 606 $aMedicine$xHistory 606 $aMusic 606 $aNeurology 606 $aPsychiatry 606 $aNeuroscience 606 $aNeuropsychology 606 $aHistory of Medicine 606 $aClassical Music 615 0$aNeurology. 615 0$aPsychiatry. 615 0$aNeurosciences. 615 0$aNeuropsychology. 615 0$aMedicine$xHistory. 615 0$aMusic. 615 14$aNeurology. 615 24$aPsychiatry. 615 24$aNeuroscience. 615 24$aNeuropsychology. 615 24$aHistory of Medicine. 615 24$aClassical Music. 676 $a700.19 702 $aLorusso$b Lorenzo 702 $aRiva$b Michele Augusto 702 $aSironi$b Vittorio Alessandro 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910746957503321 996 $aEffects of Opera Music from Brain to Body$93574337 997 $aUNINA
