Pandemi Sürecinde Müziğin İyileştirici Etkileri

Abstract

It is known from past to present that art and music have physical, spiritual and therapeutic effects. In this field called music therapy, the calming, healing and unifying effects of music are used to treat people in many branches of medicine. In this pandemic process in which we, as all countries of the world, go to history pages in every field, the unifying, fusing, healing, regenerative, therapeutic effects of music are once again noticed. In order to protect the health of people and save them from mass deaths, states have had to make restrictions in many areas in all aspects of social, cultural, economic and education. With the stay at home application, it is seen that in such difficult days when everyone is removed from the contagious effects of the covid-19 virus by living in isolation from the outside world, people need art and music, which is an important branch of art, in order to get away from the psychological and spiritual effects of the pandemic. This research was conducted to explain the healing effects of music during the pandemic process. In the research, literature review was made, and the studies in the field of music therapy in our history were included and information was given about the areas and how music was used during this pandemic process.
