In the article "How do film-makers manipulate our emotions with music ?" by Helen Stewart, BBC Arts & Culture, I've learned that through certain sound frequencies our emotions can be changed, heightened, or shortened. For example in the year 2002 producers of a french psychological thriller admitted to using this technique. "Audience members report feeling disoriented and physically ill just with in a half hour of infrasound..." This shows that with the use of certain frequencies we can feel different. Infrasound is not a sound you necessarily hear, but you feel it rather than hear it. In some cases the sounds that are chosen to be in horror movies sometimes resemble the same frequency of an animal in fear. The description of the feeling of the audience members in a horror film clearly shows its affect. i enjoyed hearing the short back story in the beginning.
Is there music that can make us feel other emotions other than fear?
