The therapeutic value of music is widely known.
Research has shown that it can heal emotional suffering and has positive physical effects, such as reducing heart rate and blood pressure.
The Emory Chamber Music Society of Atlanta has started a “Music for Healing” initiative.
Pianist, professor and director of the Society, Will Ransom, joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes, along with violist Yinzi Kong, to talk about their performances. Kong is also a member of the Vega Quartet.
They both hope that the music brings peace to those getting vaccinated.
