Definitely.
Old saying "Music soothes the savage beast."
Biblically, David played a stringed instrument to soothe Saul whenever a tormenting spirit drove Saul mad.
Classical music (Bach, Brahms, Beethoven, etc.) soothes and calms most people (except rockers and metalheads like me who go into culture shock).
But the dude above me is correct. It won't be of much help in situations involving heart attacks, gunshots, stabbing and other related stuff like that.
Music is more of a psychological medicine, but it definitely works.
Peace. ;o)

there actually is documented evidence that music has healed people with very real physical problems. One case I heard about was a woman with a brain tumor. After she was finished with her course of music therapy the tumor was gone. I wish I could cite it for you, I have seen it cited in a book, but i can't remember the name of the book.
I have seen evidence that music helps autistic children focus and communicate. Is music good medicine? Absolutely.

as far as the heart attack thing i don't fully agree... i mean it won't cure heart disease, but music can dispell stress, and too much stress can lead to a heart attack. But yes, music is a very good medicine, because it releases a feel good hormone into your brain (endorphines) so it makes you feel good. That why people dance, play instruments and sing cuz it makes them feel good.

Definitely. It can bring you up when you're feeling down. It really lifts your spirits.
