When music journalist Jude Rogers lost her father aged five, she turned to songs for solace and structure. Music helped her redefine her identity as a teenager and connect with her young child as a parent after post-natal depression. In this emotional and educational series, we explore how music impacts us at each stage of our lives. Across four programmes in A Life In Music, Jude speaks to musicians, neuroscientists, psychologists and music-lovers to discover why music means so much to us all. In this third episode, Adult Life, Jude explores how music helps us navigate the challenges and changes that come our way in adulthood. How and why does music allow us to come to terms with our past, quiet the demons in our head and move forward with our lives? We hear from American singer-songwriter John Grant, neuroscientist Dr Daniel Levitin, Dr Beate Peter who researches electronic dance music cultures, and dance music fans Brett and Sylvia Van Toen.
