Music and the emotions 
 
Neuroscientist Jonah Lehrer considers the emotional power of music
Why does music make us feel? One the one hand, music is a purely abstract art form, 
devoid of language or explicit ideas. And yet, even though music says little, it still manages 
to touch us deeply. When listening to our favourite songs, our body betrays all the 
symptoms of emotional arousal. The pupils in our eyes dilate, our pulse and blood 
pressure rise, the electrical conductance of our skin is lowered, and the cerebellum, a 
brain region associated with bodily movement, becomes strangely active. Blood is even 
redirected to the muscles in our legs. In other words, sound stirs us at our biological roots. 
A recent paper in 
Nature Neuroscience 
by a research team in Montreal, Canada, marks an 
important step in revealing the precise underpinnings of the poten
t pleasurable stimulus’ 
that is music. Although the study involves plenty of fancy technology, including functional 
magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and ligand-based positron emission tomography 
(PET) scanning, the experiment itself was rather straightforward. After screening 217 
individuals who responded to advertisements requesting people who experience ‘chills’ 
to instrumental music, the scientists narrowed down the subject pool to ten. They then 
asked the subjects to bring in their playlist of favourite songs 

virtually every genre was 
represented, from techno to tango 

and played them the music while their brain activity
