Radio Discussion of the Benefits of Choral Singing

The June 3rd broadcast of NPR's "Talk of the Nation" focused on the benefits of singing in a chorus.  Titled "'Imperfect Harmony':  How Singing with Others Changes Your Life," the show featured two guests:  (1) Stacy Horn, author of Imperfect Harmony:  Finding Happiness Singing with Others and (2) Daniel Levitin, professor of psychogy at McGill University and author of This Is Your Brain on Music.  Host Ari Shapiro led a conversation about the benefits of choral singing that included calls from listeners.
