The Music in you - Patrick Bertrand

If you have ever wondered why you feel joyful and uplifted when that song is played at a party, why a deep sense of loss washes over you when that song is heard at a funeral, or why you suddenly feel energized and ready to take on the world when the theme from that movie comes on the radio, then this little book about music is for you. Blending a little music theory with a generous dash of science, and mixing it at just the right tempo with history and a few Caribbean musical herbs and spices, The Music in You offers a fresh and accessible approach to understanding what music is really all about. Whether you are a parent helping your child with a school assignment, a singer in a choir trying to make sense of the music scores placed before you at rehearsal, or simply someone curious about the power of music, this book will help ease the confusion—and help you recognise the music that has been living in you all along.
