Music has always played an integral part in man's life. Research shows that music has many powers - it controls anger, brings joy, makes a person mellow, etc. In South Indian music certain ragas are associated with certain beneficial elements. There are ragas to bring rains, to light a lamp and many more. This is not to say that Hindustani music oes not have the same benefits. Tansen is said to have lit many lamps while singing the raga Deep and Muthuswamy Dikshitar is siad to have brought rains while singing Amruthavarshini.
Today many schools that reach out to special children use music as a medium to bring out the best in a child. A child who may be unable to read or write has been known to sing and this is ecause music calms the mind. It has also been scientifically found that listening to soothing music makes a person mellow and certain kinds of beats make a person uncomfortable and uneasy.
