Through music we feel that we have to release the sensitivity and the human beings' emotions, which is sensitivity, because through music the sensitivity comes to the surface. The beauty is the only idea that shines in the world. Plato says that in his teachings to his disciples, Saint Thomas Aquinas defines the beautiful as what pleases the eyes. Through recreational activity we can reach the absolute shutdown of concerns. Being the body a product of the society which is part, the changes of rates of body movements, change as according to the place, the stimulus and the season, therefore, even before communicating or expressing themselves through language articulated, the man used his own body with a standard rhythmic movement, at the same time we developed a plastic sense of space. The music phenomenon presented in a more or less pronounced way in most people's life is associated with experiences that may contribute extensively to our welfare, through its physiological and emotional effects, related with self-knowledge and social relationships. It is incontestable the music's value on the human brain; and this has been confirmed every day that goes by the technological advance, which allows renowned scientists to extend their studies on the subject, conducting experiments in the treatment of lots of kinds of health problems, as in cases of patients with neurological problems, heart conditions, mental disorders, disabilities not only referring to cognitive aspects, but also the physical and sensorial.
