THE ROLE OF MUSIC IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT AND CREATIVITY: MUSIC AND PSYCHOLOGY

The soul produces music with its deepest chords, which could not express all its inner dialogue in words. The composer speaks to himself through music and lets the dialogue be heard everywhere, to cross the boundaries of time and to become the only universal language that never ceases to speak to the hearts of people in every age. The secret discourse of music is infinite, endless, unbound, unconfinable and is heard from the endless depths of the soul in the mind and the heart, spontaneous and unaltered, without being bound by words. Music is the only entrance to the secret chambers of the soul. This is where the heart of the composer is heard and his thought and life are interpreted. This is where the fluctuations of his soul are heard and his pain and joy shown, his enthusiasm and his anguish, his thirst for life and the anticipation of the end.
Music and psychology collaborate in the expression and knowledge of the soul. Music speaks and the other listens. Both interpret, illuminate and reveal the deeper sources of human experiences and help in our understanding of the multidimensional nature of human existence.
In this one-day workshop on Music and Psychology, leading scholars and experts in the two fields will harmoniously lead our steps through the field of music to the magnificent depths of the human soul.
