Kelly’s Corner 140 - John Arterton and the Outer Cape Chorale
Jan Kelly writes a weekly column for Provincetown Magazine. Studies show that people who sang in choruses were healthier. It's a release of tension . You're not thinking. When you're in a room full of people vibrating good energy, when you're in the presence of positive things, positive things happen to you. The study showed that before and after rehearsals a substance was released by the body in the saliva. A non intrusive test showed immunoglobulin A, an antibody used in fighting disease, increased 150% after rehearsals and 240% after performances.
