Tippet Rise, an ambitious music center in the rolling hills of Montana, on Tuesday announced a second season that will include a premiere by leading composer Aaron Jay Kernis.

What's Happening in Your Brain and Body as You Listen to Music
"The effect of music on the brain or body depends in part on its genre," Frank A. Russo, PhD, associate professor of psychology at Ryerson University, tells Yahoo Health. Research published in the Journal of Positive Psychology shows that listening to upbeat music improves mood, with one catch — it only works if you have the desire to be happy. Test subjects who listened to the upbeat music without feeling an urge to be happy did not see their moods change.

You Could Have Serious Musical Potential and Not Even Realize It
If you've got a particular personality type, you might be predisposed to be musically skilled.  If you've ever taken music lessons, you've had it drilled into your head that "practice makes perfect." But is that really all there is to it? According to a new study in the Journal of Research in Personality, your musical ability could also be hinged on something a little more engrained: your personality. Researchers from the University of Cambridge and Goldsmiths, University of London, in the U.K., in conjunction with the BBC, put more than 7,000 people through a series of musical tests, including melodic memory and rhythmic perception tests. These were then linked to their scores on a Big Five personality trait test, which examined people's scores on the traits of openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism.  Among the findings: The trait of openness is a key predictor of musical ability.

"Or if you criticize yourself for making a mistake —either way, you will never have enough confidence to try anything new or expand your repertoire." She adds that the key to opening yourself creatively — whether it's doing something different on-the-job or taking a chance on the dance floor — is learning to take in constructive criticism, not destructive criticism. "Constructive criticism is when we see we're awkward, so we can identify the problem and find a solution," says Plumez.
