The BBC currently has a brief but interesting news clip on its website. For those with high speed internet access, the story is featured under the 'Health' tab on http://news.bbc.co.uk/broadband/news_console.stm with as title:
Patient recovery faster with music

Now Playing ( 2 mins 34 secs )

Doctors in Denmark say they have conclusive proof that music helps to speed up patient recovery and reduce the perception of pain. Malcolm Brabant reports.

Except for saxophone playing, which has been known to force otherwise recovering patients into pain-induced seizure and irreversable comas.

Reminds me of the story about the critically ill Highlander, who made a miraculous recovery on hearing the skirl of the bagpipes in hospital. Unfortunately, all the other patients took a turn for the worse.

LOL @ beejay - skirl, now THERE's a word that certainly needs reintroduction into daily useage - and you've used it in a perfect setting.
