Singing, Storytelling, and Cognitive Science

Get ready for the 5th annual LA County Arts and Health Week Summit with this conversation hosted by LA Opera Connects Vice President Dr. Andréa Fuentes. This conversation was recorded live as part of our most recent Exploring Opera session—LA Opera Connects free virtual learning series—with this session focused on all things arts and health. In this episode, Andréa facilitates a dialogue about LA Opera's unique collaboration with the LA Children's Chorus and the USC Brain and Creativity Institute, featuring Dr. Assal Habibi, Susan Kotses, and Dr. Michele Patzakis. Did you know that singing and storytelling enhance cognitive and social/emotional skills? The science is there, and if this research excites you, join us for the Arts and Health Week Summit on June 12. Learn more and RSVP now at LAOpera.org/Summit.
