<P>Music has a fascinating power to haunt us and heal us. In <STRONG>MUSICOPHILIA</STRONG>, essayist-physician <B>Oliver Sacks</B> looks at music and its mysterious relationship to the brain. A recent Booklist review explains further: "Neurologist Sacks...charmingly argues that music is essential to being human in ways that have only begun to be understood. His customary erudition and fellow-feeling ensure that, no matter how clinical the discussion becomes, it remains, like the music of Mozart, accessible and congenial." Sacks, author of the classic <STRONG>THE MAN WHO MISTOOK HIS WIFE FOR A HAT</STRONG> comes to Cambridge Forum at the First Parish Church on November 5 to discuss MUSICOPHILIA: Tales of Music and the Brain. The program begins at 7:30 pm; doors open at 6:45pm. Tickets are required for this forum. Call Cambridge Forum at 617-495-2727 to reserve your free ticket.
