This year's ABC Classic 100 looks at music that makes you feel good and why it can boost moodsPerhaps Harold Arlen's Over The Rainbow can make you feel wistful. Or, like Bridgerton characters Daphne and Simon, Max Richter's Spring elicits joy."Music promotes the release of neurochemicals that literally makes us feel good," ABC Classic presenter and registered psychologist Greta Bradman says.
"I have a pre-associated reaction to disco music and multiple repetitions of feeling energised and happy when I hear disco tracks," Professor McFerran says.Professor McFerran says putting on happy music when we feel sad or stressed won't work instantly.Instead, Professor McFerran uses a technique known as the Iso-Principle when she's working with clients.
Dr Garrido's team developed an app to track songs and mood over time. It allows users to curate a personalised playlist using the Iso-Principle.Classical music buffs might instinctively choose Beethoven's Ode to Joy to lift their mood, or Mozart's Lacrymosa when they need to express sadness, but our subconscious listening choices can have unintended consequences.
When you find yourself in this state, it can be a sign it's time to change the song, Ms Bradman says.For example, Dr Garrido conducted a study in which two participants were played the same song and asked to respond."They kept a diary of their thoughts ... One felt hopeful after listening to one of Adele's break-up songs, but the other person felt mounting despair," Dr Garrido says.
