Conference
"The benefits of music on the brain
by Christine Boyer

What could be more idyllic and vibrant than to give my lecture on the benefits of music on the brain during the festival "Les Nocturnes du piano", this great classical music event on the French Riviera.
As an art agent, nurse and therapist, I have always been fascinated by neuroscience and the connections between music, brain and mind.
The help of music therapy during my consultations has only strengthened my thinking and pushes me every day to develop this track which is full of surprises....
It is with a deep joy that I accepted to participate in this festival on the invitation of Christine Gastaud, its initiator, because this week turned to the Piano is also and especially a moment of reunion between music lovers, young artists with immense talent and neophytes.
For me, to make the bridge between therapy and music, the two passions which animate me since always, to be able to share in this splendid frame which is the Hippodrome during a festival of such a scale, is a great happiness!
