À propos de ce contenu audio
What if your brain is shaped not only by what you think, but by what you listen to?
In this episode of Resonances, Patricia Caicedo—singer, musicologist, and physician—explores how music is processed in the brain and how it actively shapes neural structure, emotional patterns, and identity over time.
Drawing from neuroscience, clinical observation, and musical practice, this episode examines how listening engages distributed brain networks, how rhythm activates motor systems, why musical memory remains accessible in neurodegenerative conditions, and how performance integrates sensory, motor, and cognitive processes in real time.
Through clear examples—including the complex neural activity involved in a pianist’s performance—this episode presents music not as a passive experience, but as a form of neuroplastic training that supports cognitive resilience.
Music is not simply something we hear.
It is something that organizes how we feel, remember, and become.
