Center for Music Medicine

music2work2 is based on the premise that music is good for you - it is beneficial in many ways. In fact, we researched this idea and found many articles that deal with studies and reports supporting the benefit of music. One of our newer MySpace  friends believes in the benefits of music also. The Center for Music Medicine, located in West Sacremento, California is an education and music project offering opportunities for accessing information about music as a medicine. It is the Center's intent "to bring human health and wellness through the power of music."

David Tralle, keyboardist, performs "original keyboard soundscapes" - improvisational compositions. Barbara Tralle is manager/presenter of the project.

The music, four pieces of which are available to hear on their MySpace page, is beautiful, calming, and soothing. It is classified as Healing & Easy Listening. There is no way I can choose a favorite from the four selections. They are all equally lovely and, I'm sure, beneficial pieces.

Starr Parodi

Starr Parodi is one of music2work2's MySpace friends from Los Angeles. She is a composer and pianist, and has several film scores and film trailers to her credit. She may be best known and recognized as the keyboardist on the late night Arsenio Hall Show several years ago. Her newest CD, "Common Places," is a collection of improvisations on a variety of themes. The four pieces available to listen to on her MySpace page are from this CD. I especially like the title piece, Common Places, but I believe my favorite of the four is Albinoni's Adagio I...

Starr Parodi's great talent is apparent in her beautiful and creative music.
