This sounds weird but i saw q bunch of scholarly articles regarding case studies of people listwning to mazart once q day. Specifically one piece in mozart ( mozart sonata two pianos in D, k448) scientists have seen the reduction in seziures of various ages but arent certain of the science as to why. im curious if anyone else has heard about this, or has tried it?

I find Strauss, Mozart and Tchaikovsky beneficial and it has to be the correct pitch and tempo.
Beethoven's 5th and Listz rhapsody No2 really make me seize.
For me waltzes are perfect. Fast tempo and a lot of the wrong pitch can send me into tonic clonic whilst aware.
I used to be a flautist prior to seizure onset.
I lost the ability to play after the 1st injury and after the 2nd told that I had to accept that I wouldn't play again. 7yrs later and sheer determination I managed to blow a few notes. The 3rd miracle that was granted. Hoping to find a reasonably priced yamaha concert flute so I can really build on another function regained.
There's always a way forward if you think outside the box and have faith.

not mozart per say... but when i have an aura, i listen and/or sing 'the mickey mouse club' from the 1960's (i think). 9-10 times... the seizure stops. there is something about uplifting/happy music that triggers a seizure to stop (most of the time). anyway... heres a link... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4C_lUy58Rw&amp...
