...Janigro's study, more than a dozen neurosurgical patients, predominantly with Parkinson's, listened to three musical selections - rhythmic music with no discernible melody (by Gyorgi Ligeti, of Stanley Kubrick-movie fame), melodic music with undefined rhythm (by Aaron Jay Kernis, a Pulitzer Prize winner) and something in between (Ludwig van Beethoven). In the later stages of the research, to prevent familiarity from swaying the subjects' responses, music was specifically composed for the study by students from the Cleveland Institute of Music...

Vernon’s impassioned harmonies and falsetto fit skillfully on top of the rhythmic loops. The light-heartedness of the instrumentation makes the pathos inherent in Vernon’s voice less grounded, resulting in a track that is simultaneously light and catchy yet deep and moving. The album emerges an intriguing and surprising experiment. Several of the songs are so freeform that they progress along...
