Music can enhance the quality of life during the dark days of January and all year. According to a 2013 research study, “The Power of Music in the Lives of Older Adults,” music is potentially valuable for the improvement of the well-being and health of the elderly. Music therapy and music-related activities foster enjoyment, socialization, well-being and the improvement of mental health in older people. During the winter months, the elderly can be prone to depression and isolation. Musical activities such as live concerts, singing and playing instruments are part of the many activities that we offer our residents.
