Why does your heartbeat quicken with fast-paced music? How does a single violin shriek make you feel pain? In this episode, we dive into the science and art of musical empathy—how film scores tap into your brain and body to make you feel the story. From Psycho to Gladiator, explore how composers use rhythm, voice, and timbre to build an emotional bridge between screen and spectator.
