That first one, "Music has the ability to repair brain damage and return lost memories."

Music therapy is a young academic discipline. For a long time, University of the Incarnate Word here in San Antonio was one of only a handful of colleges in the country to offer that degree, though I think there are more now. Once I learned of it, I was wishing I'd been born a couple of decades later than I was. It wasn't a thing when I started college, but it would have been my choice if it had been. I believe in music as I believe in nothing else, a gift from God, or a gift from the souls of the musicians to humanity.

To read about music therapy, you find it's used to treat PTSD in soldiers returning from the battle field, to help autistic children advance, all sorts of miraculous and successful usages.

Music sure does calm the savage beast of my disease, or at least it feels like it sometimes ;)

This is "Speak Low", a Kurt Weill song that came out in the early 1940's. I'm submitting a Gato Barbieri version, which some people say sounds dated. Well, yes it does today. It's Barbieri's soaring 1980's style that everybody in that era tried to copy. I think it's the most beautiful version ever of "Speak Low".
