    Plato has rightly said ‘music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.” Music therapy is a technique in which music is used within a therapeutic relationship to address physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of individuals. Next year we look to confer the therapeutic benefits of music in our self-organized therapy sessions. Next year also, we look forward to participating at national level competitions and represent our college at such highly coveted competitions. And the society will continue holding sessions, apart from regular practices to develop the musical acumen amongst the members of the society.
