Does music give you longevity?


Does music promote longevity?
I believe it does.
Music imparts to you a kind of spirituality and serenity that enhances life
and assuages the daily turmoil and aggravation that life can can inflict you with.
Those without it are missing something.
We’re lucky to have it.

Of course it does. Anything that feeds the soul benefits the body's processes as well.
Pergolesi lived to age 26. Schubert made it to, I think, 29. Mozart got to 35. Yeah different eras, different life expectancies.  Still, there are a lot of variables to consider. For one, how long do you sit on that couch, bathing in all that gorgeous imaging and tone?
Good point edcyn, but for my part, I was thinking of the same person, living in the same way, either with or without music. I think that person living with music would likely live longer. In fairness, as a music lover I suppose there isn't much empirical validity to that.
