If you don’t normally listen to classical music you may find Odyllic Love's format of combining classical music with mainstream music and film, a way to make classical music accessible.                                                                      ​

 

Listening to classical music should be part of a diet of varied types of music. 

​

Listening to classical music stimulates our hearing, brains, and minds.  The complexity of classical music keeps the auditory system active. 

 

The role of listening in our ability to think, order our thoughts, and communicate, was confirmed by Dr Alfred Tomatis (1920-2001).  His work on the ear, language, and communication is recognized globally as the 'Tomatis Effect'.

​

"Listening concerns all of us... Listening is the first step taken to be able to enter into communication and speech.  The child who closes himself off from it, enters into autistic behaviour, that is to say non-listening."*

​

We can all benefit from giving our auditory system a regular workout by listening to classical music as a precursor to "listening to the universe" (which is the title of Dr Tomatis' final book).
