Music or songs has been termed as a way of life…as it is practicaly not possible for a day to go by withount an individual singing or listening to a song or watching music videos, either gotten from from his/her music or songs archives or just looking up the web to download them.
Just as music has been created ever since the inception of man, right from the beggining of creation, music will definitly as well survive the test of time and will as well last till the end of the world.
According to international record and survey, it has been established that millions of songs are being premiered or released daily, with susbequent millions of songs, music or mp3 downloads recorded on the average in a single day, and so also videos. And as such, hundreds of thousands of musical reviews are made on the released songs,as in the example of Beyonce’s record set on youtube with millions of her video views withing the first day of release of her song. This number of views varries according to the race and country and how famouse the singer is…as in Africa where I come from, an a list celebrity can get as much as one million views or mp3/songs downloads in a day…like in Nigeria, where a list artists like Wizkid,Flavour, Davido,Dbanj,2face,Psquare,Donjazzy,Banky w,m.i,Iceprince and so on gets close to a million video views or mp3/songs/music downloads within a day of their release with respect to the position of Nigeria in africa, and its population. Whereby,countries like U.S.A, China , England or the United kingdom in general, could get much more video views and songs/mp3/music downloads.
Medically,music is known to soothes the mind and relaxes veins..and so also make someone composed and not only that, music has been used in various ways which makes it as useful as breath.
BENEFITS OF MUSIC
– Helps with sensory issues: The music helps
stimulate senses, focus attention and redirect
self-stimulating behaviors toward socially
appropriate behavior.
– Improves two-way communication: Music can
help build social skills and encourage peer
interaction and conversation.
– Promotes self-expression and emotional
response: Music allows a person with autism to
play music, dance and move, make noise or sing
to express emotions.
– Creating music with instruments: In the first
steps of a relationship, people with autism tend
to physically ignore or reject the attempts of
social contact made by others. Music therapy
helps to stop this social withdrawal by an initial
object relation with a musical instrument.
Playing instruments can stimulate senses and
provide emotional fulfillment. It can also be
used in a small structured group setting to build
interpersonal relationships. For example, songs
can be divided into separate parts that
necessitate the participation of each individual
to successfully bring the song to completion.
– Listening to music: The act of listening to
music can help a person with autism learn a
word, activity or appropriate behavior. For
example, a therapist may choose a song with
lyrics that portray appropriate ways of dealing
with certain situations. In a small group setting,
this can be a great tool for socialization and
relationship building.
– Dancing and exercising to music: Dancing or
exercising to music can help a person express
emotions. Moving to the music provides a
stimulating outlet that can reduce self-
stimulatory behaviors. The rhythmic component
of music is very organizing for the sensory
systems of individuals with autism. As a result,
gross and fine motor skills can be enhanced
through music therapy.
– Singing: Singing songs can help a person with
autism learn how to interact with others in a
way that provides understanding, as well as
helping to teach appropriate responses to
questions and other social interaction
opportunities. It offers an enjoyable way for
people with autism to learn social
communication skills.
Music is a source of enjoyment for many, and it
can be a valuable tool in autism programs. At
Starr, our Albion, MI fine arts department gives
children an opportunity to identify skills they
may not have realized at any other point. This is
just one of the ways we create positive
environments where children and families
flourish.
