Favourite Tunes during treatment

I am starting to load my iphone with plenty of music to help me through treatment. What is your favourite music?

  • Mussorgsky Pictures in an Exhibition was a wonderful support for me going through chemo.  I don't know why. He wrote it after a close friend died.  Very powerful.  I also listened to choral music written by Hildegard Von Bingen.  Very calming.  Good luck with your treatment.  Karen 
  • Honestly I wasn't really in to music at all during treatment but when I was having chemo I did take my laptop and put in a movie, Twister. Great music in that and it really passed the hours sitting there fast.

  • Hi Gerry, I'm sure I'm like a lot of people who have a different favourite type of music for every day of the week. Anything from opera -  Joseph Calleja, through to Metallica and anything in between. Quite often write down any band I can think of that I like and then download my play lists from iTunes. Oooh and are you aware of file sharing with ITunes where you can nominate to share your library with others? My sister and I having sharing enabled and it means I have access to her music and she mine!! Excellent way to enjoy more music :) All the best with your treatment. Xx Cath
