Hi, I’m JenX. I wanted to use the power of music to help a friend through a tough time.

The idea for my blog came from a promise I made to a friend who was about to embark upon chemotherapy treatment for cancer.

I said I would send them a song every day, so that they would know I was thinking of them and wishing them better. The first 71 entries in my blog comprise that playlist!

I originally selected them because of a particular mood or memory that they evoked in me and which I thought might also resonate with my friend. But in this blog I also try to identify something about what it is in the music (the devices used by the composer) that creates its effect.

Whatever your reason for reading this blog, I hope that you enjoy the music or feel inspired to listen to something new.
