Bugle Calls

Simply playing several bugle calls, and then playing 'Taps' will quickly illustrate the power of music in bringing emotions into play.
 
Fading light dims the sight,
And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright.
From afar drawing nigh -- Falls the night.

Day is done, gone the sun,
From the lake, from the hills, from the sky;
All is well, safely rest, God is nigh.

Then good night, peaceful night,
Till the light of the dawn shineth bright;
God is near, do not fear -- Friend, good night.

The many variations of the 'Star Spangled Banner' illustrate the considerable power of music to evoke emotions - especially when the Jimmy Hendrix version is included.

Lyrics Stir Emotions Too!

Key Lyrics:   'How can I ease your troubled mind, and warm your cold, cold heart....(and change your behavior)?'   Remember the pyramid of character development, involving the head, the heart and the hands....

We Shall Overcome - Joan Baez

Sam Cooke - A Change Is Gonna Come

What do I gotta do to make you love me?  make you want me?, to make you care? to be heard? 
'Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word' - Ray Charles
