Renée Fleming, MUSIC AND MIND: Harnessing the Arts for Health and Wellness

In this special episode (a live event at the Streicker Center!), world-renowned soprano and arts/health advocate Renée Fleming chats with Zibby about MUSIC AND MIND, a groundbreaking collection of essays about the powerful impacts of music on health and the human experience. The conversation covers the scientific effects of music on the brain and emotional healing, as well as the transcendent power of shared musical experiences. Renée also talks about her journey as a performer, the enriching role of music in childhood development, and her focus on advocating for the integration of arts into healthcare—from children’s hospitals to elder care facilities.
