Clinical research demonstrates that music can improve respiration, lower blood pressure, reduce heart rate, relax muscle tension, decrease
pain by increasing levels of endorphins, increase immunologic function and reduce stress and anxiety.
Adventus music education solutions enable hospitals to provide comprehensive music learning opportunities to patients - young and old.
Set-up is simple, mobile and inexpensive. Hospitals can utilize existing computer facilities or acquire mobile "music carts" that
may be wheeled from room to room.

Reading music requires the student to look at music notation (an abstract symbol set) and decode it.
Playing music requires that decoded information to be used to guide ten fingers on the piano keyboard. The brain is operating challenging
receptive and productive processes simultaneously, which is good exercise for the cerebral cortex, and it soon causes permanent changes
in this important area of the brain.
