I've recently listened to a podcast, The music in your brain, in which Dr. Daniel Levitin suggests that:Soothing music can trigger release of oxytocinSad music triggers release of prolactin An unknown kind of music triggers release of dopamine.This may be related to my previous question about psychoactive musicIs there evidence to support the claim that music can trigger the release of specific neurotransmitters in the brain?
Is there evidence to suggest that music can trigger release of a particular kind of neurotransmitter?
