Cork musicians STOMP with legendary percussionists to show effects of music on brain

Some of the cast of Stomping Out Loud! in action

Hot on the heels of Brain Awareness Week last week, UCC's music department has teamed up with musicians and medical researchers and members of legendary body-percussion troupe STOMP to create a very special music video.

'Stomping Out Loud! Music and the Brain' sees Dr. Eva McMullan, lecturer at UCC’s Department of Music, joined up with APC Microbiome Ireland researchers to perform body percussion composed by the co-founders of STOMP; and the UCC Choir to perform an Allen Billingsley arrangement of the Pentatonix cover of US folk outfit Fleet Foxes’ song 'White Winter Hymnal'.
