Unforgiving. Unforgiving!' say's the King. 'Well, we must hurry on, pass over or skirt around that word. Unforgiving. But I tell you, lutenist, I am tortured by lice. Do not look alarmed. Not in my hair or on my pillow. I mean by cowards, rascals, liars, sots, cheats and lechers. Where are the philosophers? That is what I constantly ask.' Now, he is relieved to see the walls of a panelled room take shape around him. A voice says: 'This is the Vinterstue. The Winter Room.' Dolegui, A. S. (2013).

Music, trauma and silence: The state of the art - ScienceDirect Music, trauma and silence: The state of the art - ScienceDirect

There was no statistically significant difference in heart rate, diastolic blood pressure, temperature, silence, or other approaches between the groups. Silence and other ways did not reduce systolic blood pressure as much as listening to the pop. Peripheral oxygen saturation increased significantly only when listening to Persian traditional music, and when there was silence however, the differences were not statistically significant. In terms of valence, arousal, and dominance, none of the five treatments were shown to be more effective. Conclusion Van Den Bosch I, Salimpoor VN, Zatorre RJ (2013) Familiarity mediates the relationship between emotional arousal and pleasure during music listening. Front Hum Neurosci 7:1–10 These results seem to parallel those of Smith and Morris (1977). In their study, they also found that participants performed better on a cognitive processing test while listening to no music than they did while listening to either stimulating or sedative music. They determined that performance is impaired with music and optimized with no music. However, their study revealed that participants performed significantly better while listening to sedative music than they did while listening to stimulating music, whereas the current experiment found no significant difference in test scores between the loud music and soft music conditions.

After the wheel starts again in bar 225, it stops dead four more times. Each time on a perfect cadence. Followed by a silence. And then a restart.

Music and Silence - Wikipedia

Handel very often composes a long general pause, an empty moment, as a climax before he sets the musical end point. What a difference it makes if we change the gestalt of perception and focus on this silence rather than on his euphoric music! The most famous example is the general pause before the end of the Hallelujah from his Messiah (at 3.47).

I began to realise that this not only provides access to meditation, but also increases the perception of music, in its beauty and depth. So, I let the singing group consciously experience the silence before the music starts and after it ends. Or in pieces where the music is ‘interrupted’ by general pauses, I extend them in length in the rehearsals.

Silence: The Way in Which Great Composers Use the Absence of Silence: The Way in Which Great Composers Use the Absence of

The great Hungarian literary theorist Georg Lukács championed historical fiction because, he said, it revealed, at its best, "the great crises of historical life". He loved Walter Scott for his rebellions and revolutions and epochal clashes of ideology. A fire is burning in the room, which is the Skrivestue, the King's study, and the small chamber smells sweetly of applewood and leather. This study was conducted in a repeated-measured design; therefore, a paired sample t-test was used for the analysis. An alpha level of .05 was used for the analysis. The independent variable was the type of music played at two different levels of intensity: high intensity and low intensity. The dependent variable was the performance score, which was measured in terms of accurate answers obtained in each of the tests. The tests were not graded for completion but for accuracy only.

Music and Silence (Audio Download): Rose Tremain, Jenny

Music could ache and hurt, that beautiful music was a place a suffering man could hide.” – Pat Conroy Another sweltering month in Charlotte, another boatload of mysteries past and present for overworked, overstressed forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan. The study was conducted in rooms assigned by the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) at Shady Grove. Participants were given informed consent forms to fill out at the beginning of the experiment and a research participation credit sheet. A repeated-measure design was used in this study. All thirty-two participants were exposed to all five conditions. The researcher explained to participants that music would be played while they solved the questions on the tests. The volume at each music condition was adjusted as the experiment progressed. The most exciting rhythms seem unexpected and complex, the most beautiful melodies simple and inevitable.” – H. Auden

Music has healing power. It has the ability to take people out of themselves for a few hours.” – Elton John Mohammadi A et al (2014) Effects of music listening on preoperative state anxiety and physiological parameters in patients undergoing general surgery: a randomized quasi-experimental trial. Cent Eur J Nurs Midwifery 5(4):156–160 The present study sought to demonstrate the impact of different genres of music played at different volume levels on cognitive performance. In accordance with the first hypothesis, participants performed better in silence than they did in any music conditions. The findings were also in agreement with the second hypothesis. They demonstrated that the performance was significantly worse in the presence of loud music at high intensity. Contrary to the third hypothesis, however, there was no significant difference between the type of music that was played and performance scores. The scores were not significantly higher in the soft music versus the loud music condition. Interestingly, there was no difference when the scores from the soft music at high intensity were compared to scores from the loud music at high intensity.
