In a recent article by Chris James, Chris makes a point of saying that some Sound Experiences may, in fact, not actually be healing, possibly even the reverse; that they may be doing damage.
Does this mean that, putting it rather crudely, that Sound's healing function can be potentially bipolar? Do some sounds heal and some sounds not? Going further, do some healers heal and others not? Are some musical experiences bad and others good? David Thame in his book 'The Secret Power of Music' seems to infer that the expression of pessimism and failure (citing Tchaikovsky and Mussorgsky as examples) is somehow less valuable to human development than expressions of upliftment. Does this idea have meaning?
How can these questions be answered? Is there such a thing as an immoral music? What makes a sound good or conversely bad?
