This episode of A land without music? is about the extraordinary effect that the arts and music in particular can have on our physical and mental health. We hear from Daisy Fancourt, professor of Psychobiology and epidemiology at University College London and director of the WHO collaborating centre on arts and health.
Daisy has devoted her career to studying the intersection of art and health, becoming a world leading expert on how music affects both our minds and our bodies. Here, she describes these processes and presents incontrovertible evidence regarding the importance of music to us as individuals and to society as a whole.
