Introduction

Music is everywhere. We hear it every day, in movies and TV shows, on the radio, on social media and of course at things like concerts. Many times we don't think about it, we don't realise that without music, watching movies wouldn't be the same experience and we wouldn't be able to tell the news apart on the radio.

Music is much more important to our everyday lives than we realise, and many people don't realise the effect it has on our brains. It affects things like our mood and memory and even our sleep. It's therefore important we know what music is good for in our brain, and when we should listen to it.
