To expand the OMFD project (Original Music for Dementia), we are testing the effects of original relaxing music designed for individuals with dementia on healthy individuals. Sandra, an activity coordinator at a renowned Italian care home for people with dementia, was the first to undergo testing. The goal was to evaluate the music's impact on the brain using an ECG and other physiological parameters such as blood oxygenation, blood pressure, and body temperature.

Today, I visited The Townshend Studio in London and took numerous pictures of old and expensive synthesizers and keyboards. The Rhodes piano belonged to Stevie Wonder.

Studying has helped me find balance amid the turbulent energy of my thoughts. When you study, you open your eyes and find clarity. Currently, I am focusing on orchestration. This knowledge is remarkable and has the potential to be applied in composing music for people affected by dementia. - Salvatore

After setting up the vocal booth in my home studio, SoulMate X and I decided to record an original song I composed, "E Ti Sento," two years ago. While the song isn't explicitly designed for people with dementia, it's a soothing track that can benefit anyone who listens to it. The jazz genre song is in Italian. I've included the original lyrics and the English translation for you below.

Lyric:
And I feel you,
Even when I don't see you
Because you are so important that
I can't stay away from you.
And I search for you, you know,
Even when I know
That you don't want me anymore.
But I wish
To have you here
Every day
Of my life.

And I search for you, you know,

“You Are Not Alone" is the first song created for people affected by dementia. It was designed based on parameters that science has found to be beneficial for patients. A recording studio version of the song will be released in September. You can already listen to the live version performed in Brussels at an international conference on dementia and music in June 2024.

Choosing the optimal method for listening to music—headphones or speakers—can significantly impact the well-being of dementia patients. Music therapy enhances cognitive function, reduces agitation, and improves mood in individuals with dementia. However, the effectiveness of this therapy can vary depending on whether music is delivered through headphones or speakers. Understanding the pros and cons of each option helps caregivers and healthcare professionals make informed decisions, ultimately enhancing the therapeutic benefits and overall quality of life for those with dementia.

This is my song, "You Are Not Alone," the first relaxing song composed to alleviate some symptoms of dementia and improve patients' moods. It was performed in Brussels at an international conference on music and dementia. The song does not seem to differ from other songs; however, it does for the parameters the science suggests following to obtain the best results on dementia in listening. It is a live performance. In the future, I will release a studio-recorded version. Thank you for listening to it.

In music therapy, familiar music can significantly impact patients because it tends to stimulate them more than unfamiliar music. It may be necessary to use more familiar music to create more engagement and brain activity. On the other hand, unfamiliar music could be used as a calming tool for restless patients, as it generates less brain activity.

On June 19th, I had the pleasure of participating in the international conference "Music for Dementia-Friendly Communities" held in Brussels. The event was attended by psychologists, researchers, musicians, and artists, creating an environment rich in interdisciplinary exchanges.

In this context, I presented my project OMFD (Original Music for Dementia), where an ensemble performed my song "You Are Not Alone." This piece was created following the scientific guidelines of my research, with particular attention to the choice of musical instruments and the composition itself to maximize benefits for people with dementia.

In the future, I plan to release both the live version of "You Are Not Alone" performed during the conference and the studio-recorded version. I look forward to sharing these works with a broader audience soon.

As dementia progresses, changes in the auditory cortex and other brain regions can lead to communication difficulties. Individuals with dementia may struggle with following conversations, processing complex auditory information, or distinguishing between sounds.
Some studies suggest that changes in auditory processing could be early indicators of cognitive decline.

Salvatore Petrone analyzed 40 music tracks from Spotify playlists which are marketed as suitable for people with dementia. The goal was to get insights and inspiration for creating new music that could improve their quality of life. However, the study found that many of these tracks did not align with scientific research on music therapy for dementia, often being rough and not calming. This highlights the need for more thoughtful music curation for this audience.

Timbre, a fundamental aspect of sound, distinguishes instruments and plays a crucial role in music therapy for dementia. It is processed in specific brain regions, influencing recognition and emotions. Though the link between timbre and emotions isn't fully grasped, alterations in it impact emotional responses.

Instrument timbre affects the perception of tension, relaxation, and the music's pleasantness. Complex timbres challenge our auditory system, potentially evoking negative feelings. Critiques stress the need for interdisciplinary research and participant diversity. Certain dementias hinder instrument recognition.
In the OMFD (Original Music for Dementia) Project, Salvatore Petrone has begun utilizing softer timbres such as the harp or piano (when played smoothly) to create pleasant and accessible music tailored for dementia patients.

The perception of melody and note pitch is vital in music therapy for dementia patients. Variations in melody perception, influenced by note pitch, can pose challenges, especially for older adults or those with dementia. The research underscores the importance of a linear melody structure with minimal note jumps for relaxation. Additionally, rhythmic accents and metric structure play key roles in melody processing and memorization. Ascending melodies tend to evoke happiness, while syncopations introduce tension. Despite challenges in memorizing new melodies, patients in the early stages of Alzheimer's often retain the ability to recognize familiar ones. This OMFD (Original Music For Dementia) project aims to create new relaxing melodies with narrow intervals and ascending notes to promote positive moods in dementia patients.
