Not only in the way it gets your mum out of her 'downers' or the way old music is often used to get people with dementia perk up to some good memories too, but different conditions as well.I had a friend with pretty bad ataxia (involuntary movement and shaking due to a progressive brain condition, couldn't walk either). He was also a musician, drums and bass guitar, and I was standing next to his physio during a gig. Physio was completely surprised by how the ataxia actually seemed to help when it came to making music, allowing an extra beat on the drums or a surprising addition to his bass playing.Also, people who stutter often find they can sing without stuttering.</blockquote>
