18.01.2022 There are so many neurological benefits of #singing. Even at an amateur level, it is beneficial to people’s emotional, physical, and cognitive well-being. Singi...ng both listening to it and doing it can release #dopamine, a chemical that works to help regulate the brain’s pleasure and reward centres. #Music has also been found to release #serotonin, a neurotransmitter found mostly in the digestive tract that helps regulate our moods, social behaviors and appetite; other studies have shown that #cortisol levels can be lower when listening to music and singing. Requiem masses by Mozart, Haydn, Verdi and Berlioz are extremely popular selections for #choirs worldwide. And even though the content isn’t necessarily joyful or soothing in these cases, #endorphins hormones produced by the central nervous system release and interact with opiate receptors in the brain, diminishing pain and triggering an almost analgesic feeling in the body. Our brains still get an endorphin rush, which apparently feels a lot like taking morphine. In addition, Dr. David Huron, a music professor at OSU, postulates that singing may increase #prolactin production; prolactin is found both in tears and in nursing mammals, and it helps regulate the immune system. Doctors are now finding that singers have more circuit connections between the right and left sides of their #brains than non-singers. Research findings have shown that elderly singers suffer #depression less frequently, make fewer doctor’s visits each year, need less medication, and also increase their other activities. And the most remarkable phenomenon that a choir vocalist experiences are the many take your breath away moments that come as a result of being one of many voices coming #together in harmony. A 2004 study by Dr. Gunter Kreutz showed that singing in a choir as opposed to simply listening to choral music increases SIgA production (antibodies in saliva that help immune function) and other positive physical responses. So if you get the chance to sing, do it. You’ll be happier and healthier for it, no matter how you sound. https://www.choraldirectormag.com//your-brain-and-singing/ #neurochild #music #musicalintelligence

09.01.2022 What made the JTC team's highlight reel in 2019? Here's Jan Cyrka's pick. "I would have to choose the Collab Series. It was quite a challenging task to write a ...backing track that incorporated the styles favoured by the artists involved and then sequentially make it flow naturally. I was hoping to get some cool solos out of the players and boy they didn’t let me down! They were all incredible. What a privilege it is to work with all these extraordinarily gifted musicians. I pinch myself every day!" Check it out here: http://bit.ly/Collab-Series-1 Another big thanks to Eric Woolard Guitar, Lari Basilio Michael Wagner Guitar Roy Ziv and Feodor Dosumov for their incredible playing.
