Who has not felt the stirring and mysterious power for music to touch the soul and uplift the spirit? Who has never been moved by a melody or soothed by a song? What is this haunting power granted to music, G-d's generous gift to mankind? Jewish sources have long recognized the unique connection between man's spiritual life and the power of music. Whether it was David, sweet singer of Israel, composing his eternal songs of praise, the Levites lifting their voices in the unparalleled harmonies of the temple, or the Chassidim using niggunim to reach exalted heights of Divine service, the Jewish soul has always been nurtured by music. In The Mystical Power of Music, the first book of its kind, Rabbi Avraham Arieh Trugman delves into the different qualities of music and the reasons it exerts such a strong influence upon us. He draws upon a wide array of sources from Jewish tradition, as well as modern scientific research, to give us a profound understanding of the power of music and to help us discover the song that lies within each of us
