Currently, I work with a music therapist who helps me find safety again in hearing different sounds. Because I have been isolating in place for nearly 2 years, my ears are more sensitive to sound. I also feel depressed when listening to music sometimes because it reminds me of what I lost from this pandemic - the energy to listen to music with friends in real life. I used music to socialize or to prepare me for some social activity. Ever since this pandemic, however, music has been a sore reminder of all that I lost. That doesn't mean I don't like music; I really do. Sometimes music gives me energy to clean my apartment, to walk (if I dare put earphones in my ears one day outside, but I don't feel comfortable doing that now), etc. The problem is, I've not been able to comfortably listen to music on an ongoing basis. I can tolerate being in a music therapy group online (via Zoom), as well as in individual music therapy (with a licensed music therapist), but it's hard for me to listen to more than one song at a time.

My favorite songs, however, include songs from the 1980s and 1990s. I have a wide range of music tastes, and I do also enjoy some New Age and Classical music. I'm not so much into opera, but I would love to attend an opera one day - just for the experience. I also wish to attend a real ballet and Broadway play one day, as I learned a little bit of dance and theater when I was in high school (almost 30 years ago). So I do love songs affiliated with famous plays, dances, etc.

So far, however, I've only been listening to nature-based sounds. I hope that counts.

During my music therapy online today, we listened to Symphony No. 94 by Joseph Haydn. It was just an excerpt. We're learning about dynamics and rhythm first, and how to read notes. It's our very first lessons in how to read music.
