Abstract:
What is music and how does it affect the human body? Historically, music is considered something divine because it has a huge impact on human emotions. This effect also has a psychosomatic effect and can influence and control the thoughts and actions of the listener. For example, purchasing behavior can be severely manipulated by musical accompaniment alone. Even the motivation can be either increased or reduced with the appropriate setting. In today's civilization, music accompanies people every day and is used for many different purposes. Thus, the musical stimulation is to be evaluated as a kind of psychotherapy, which is often used purposefully, but subconsciously takes place in the influenced. Of course, as there are still unanswered questions about the exact effect of music on the brain, many studies are currently being conducted in the field of neuroscience to fully understand this phenomenon.
