Wellness Wednesday Offering No 10: Poetry in Music

Today’s Wellness Wednesday offering is a short but sweet one. We are sharing a movement of Jennifer Higdon’s String Poetic: Nocturne for violin and piano. The movement is only about four and a half minutes, but within that time the listener can try many of the ideas offered from past Wellness Wednesdays.
Since we have started our Wellness Wednesday series, we have covered many topics to enhance your own wellness such as: how tension and release is used in music, how to use relaxation methods while listening to music, and how various moods can be supported or elevated with music. In one of our most recent ones, we shared a new term, Phenomenology, where the listener is encouraged to let the music inspire the imagination.
There are no wrong ways to listen. So, if you wish, review some of the past offerings and then hit play on this one. See where the music takes you and see how it inspires or refreshes you!
